We went a whole year without a UCF undefeated national champion squabble. Everyone ready to resume?
The Knights got the argument started emphatically in Atlanta Saturday, blitzing Georgia Tech 49-21 in their season opener. This was exactly the kind of victory a non-Power 5 program needs and which will be in rare supply in 2020, with so many non-conference games canceled. Kudos to the Yellow Jackets for keeping the UCF game on their revised schedule—and for giving the Knights a bigger target to shoot at by upsetting Florida State last week.
Thus UCF is positioned to once again insert itself into the College Football Playoff discussion.
