This college football program has grew on me since their 2017 national title claim despite them being excluded from that years college football playoff. I ended up going to watch their 2019 Fiesta Bowl game at Standard Bar & Grill against the LSU Tigers with hopes that the Tigers would put them in their place.
In the end, the Golden Knights ended up losing to the Tigers, 40-32, but in the process I ended up seeing how much heart this team had after losing their star QB McKenzie Milton, who was knocked out in November with a severe leg injury. Certainly, Milton may have been a difference maker in keeping their winning streak alive against the Tigers.
Since their 2019 Fiesta Bowl loss to the LSU Tigers, I have consistently followed this team on social media and ESPN, and often listen to their war chant which reminds me of the Florida State Seminoles war chant.

They messed up and lost to Pitt. Now, they have to play spoiler to Memphis in the AAC final. Memphis almost beat UCF in the final last year. That will definitely be the game if Memphis remains undefeated.
The sad reality of Illini football fans 🙂
UCF has been impressive, I wonder when a non-power 5 conference team will get into the playoffs…
Every season is a sad reality for us fans. Thankfully I’am a overall lover of college football, so I have other favorites outside of Illini being my team. I’d be miserable if the Illini was the only team I loved, lol.
UCF slacked off against Pitt, but I have no doubts that they will go on to win their conference after the loss. They have heart! Truly a program that’s not stuck in the shitter, lol
I enjoy college sports in general as well.
