The Military Bowl is on Wednesday and Duke will face Central Florida. We probably think more about Duke legend Johnny Dawkins when it comes to UCF than football, but the Knights are and have been good in football. A few years ago, in 2017, UCF had an undefeated season, finishing 12-0. Soon they’ll be moving to the Big 12 which is a huge step up.
They’re coached by Gus Malzahn and Elko dealt with him in the SEC when Malzahn was at Auburn and Elko was defensive coordinator for Texas A&M.
