After a great home stand for BYU Football, they’re on the road in Orlando Saturday afternoon to face the UCF Knights.
The BYU Cougars rose from no. 8 to no. 2 in the AP Poll this week after knocking off the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Notre Dame was no. 2 at the time. The final score of that thriller was 28-24 in favor of the Cougs. That win marked the sixth of the season for BYU, with no losses. The Cougars are 3-0 in the Big 12 as they head back into more conference games in the second half of the season.
UCF had a bye last week, so most recently played two weeks ago, losing by a final score of 42-28 at Oklahoma State. The Knights are 3-3 on the year, with the 3 wins coming on their home field, and the three losses coming in away games. UCF is 1-2 in Big 12 play.
BYU and UCF are meeting for the sixth time historically and the third time as conference foes. BYU leads the series, 4-1. ESPN’s Matchup Predictor gives BYU an almost 71 percent chance of winning the game.
