As the ‘War on I-4′ winds down, we rank the 5 greatest UCF-USF games
UCF's move to the Big 12 means they won't play each other annually. USF is in the American Athletic Conference and its non-conference schedule is set through 2027. The teams will play for the 14th time on Saturday night at Raymond James Stadium.
The rivalry between UCF and USF is renewing. The Bulls are 2-8 under new coach Willie Taggart. They were 27-point underdogs to the No. 17 Knights (9-1). Five UCf turnovers provided an equalizer. Blake Bortles’ pump-fake allowed Breshad Perriman to catch a 52-yard touchdown pass with less than five minutes remaining.
The game between UCF and USF was played at Bounce House in Orlando. Timmy McClain's pass with 12 seconds to play was intercepted. The game was one of the greatest in the history of college football.
Matt Grothe and Ean Randolph score in the final minutes to give the Bulls a victory in Florida Citrus Bowl. Chris Robinson's strip sack of UCF quarterback Steven Moffett sealed the victory for the Knights.
Matt Grothe found Taurus Johnson for a 25-yard touchdown to start the overtime session. Brouce Mompremier and Tyron McKenzie stopped UCF quarterback Michael Greco on fourth and 6 to end the game.
The Bulls and Knights played a Black Friday blockbuster. The game ended with a 95-yard touchdown run by Mike Hughes. UCF's McKenzie Milton and Bulls' Quinton Flowers combined for 1,034 yards and 11 touchdowns.
