UCF coach Johnny Dawkins and the Knights have hit the right notes during big games so far this season.
Despite an offseason altered by limited team training opportunities and games canceled due to COVID-19 issues among other teams, the Knights have earned signature wins over then-No. 15 Florida State, Auburn and Cincinnati.
Now UCF (3-1, 1-0 AAC) gets a chance to show what it can do on a national stage when the Knights host No. 6 Houston (6-0, 1-0 AAC) at Addition Financial Arena Saturday. Tipoff is at 1 p.m. and the game will air nationally on ABC.
