You mean after out hitting Michigan, right?

 

[UCFhonors]

We were top 5 after beating Baylor??

Absolutely we were. We played in a top 5 bowl game and won. That puts us in the top 5.

 

['87 FTBL #82]

1. Breaking the all-time PR records vs Samford in my final game.
2. My first play; punt return vs BCC in the beautiful Citrus Bowl (thinking the whole time; "Please just catch it, please just catch it, please just catch it!")
3. Being there in the stands with my buddies I played with for Fiesta Bowl win over Baylor.
4. Getting a phone call and hearing from my best friend I played with: "Beaz, you sitting down? We just beat Bama."

 

[Central Floridave]

My favorite was hanging on the goal post when they came down. Every college football fan should experience that although I don't think it will ever happen again. Go Knights!

 

[Renegade2007]

Breaking the streak against Marshall has a special meaning to me because I was a student sitting in the stands it happened. I didn't storm the field, but being their live trumps everything else I saw on TV. But Fiesta Bowl win was a close second, for sure.

Charge On!

UCF defeats #8 Louisville Cardinals in 2013

This game not only put us on the national radar but it set up the crazy run to the fiesta bowl. Everyone was in love with Bridgewater and gave us no chance away. One of the best comebacks (28-3) and game winning drives in school history.

 

[Shark19]

Noise game vs Troy State
First playoff win vs IUP

 

[Knight_Classes_begin_7pm]

gotta have:
-Godfrey catch from Bortles to beat Loserville at Loserville
-Beating youngstown state with 1 second to go on a FG...oldie but a goodie! Listened to it on AM radio
-The Catch...JJ at Lincoln Field

I still have my Noise Towel from That game!

I still have my Noise Towel from That game!

I was the Color Analyst for Cablevision of Central Florida for that game. I took my headsets off and just listened to the crowd for a bit. So excited UCF nation was loud enough to get a noise penalty!

 

[Central Floridave]

I was at the noise penalty game as a college student. Fun times!

Man that Brings back memories of my First year at UCF (Transferred from FIT in Melbourne)!!!!!

 

[SCKnight]

Eddie O'Brien kicks a 55 yard field goal as time expires to beat Bethune Cookman College and usher in the new era for UCF football.

 

[SiberianKnightmare]

Fiesta Bowl for sure.

My favorite single drive is the first drive against Baylor where the world just sat stunned as we ran through them.

 

[Knight_Classes_begin_7pm]

The Kevin Smith run for TD at NC State was one of my favorite plays!

 

[UCF0509]

The monsoon game vs Marshall w Bruce miller striping the ball from Cato as they tried running down the clock... not as significant but very memorable due to the weather and circumstances

Oh I'll never forget that monsoon. Field was a swimming pool. Fun exciting game though!

Was that the Matthew Mcconaughey game right after they released that Marshall movie?

 

[Mikesi]

Absolutely we were. We played in a top 5 bowl game and won. That puts us in the top 5.

No. Major fail. Please ban.

The monsoon game vs Marshall w Bruce miller striping the ball from Cato as they tried running down the clock... not as significant but very memorable due to the weather and circumstances

Since that play happened so quick and it was a scrum that followed, there was a LONG official video replay as we waited patiently in the stadium.

During that replay, 2 of my best friends (husband and wife living on the West Coast, both UCF Alums) were watching the game while on vacation in Maui that late afternoon (late night in Orlando when play happened) and he texted me: "It was a fumble! It was a fumble! TV replay showed it was a fumble and we got it!"

I started screaming with joy with the news but realized there was still a 5% chance replay official could still bone us.

My pals had their entire tiki beach bar cheering for UCF and Rocky Ross soon to follow TD when he was standing ALL ALONE and screaming for Hodges to snap the ball was the icing on the cake (actually, the PAT was the go ahead point).

I miss beating Marshall and that was a fun rivalry...from the first game in 2002 that ESPN Networks showed that ended on a Ryan Schneider INT to the goal posts coming down in 2005 to the big win at Marshall during Matthew McConaughey "We Are Marshall" Day to the Victory Mist win in 2009 to the monsoon game in 2011.

After 3 straight losses to start the series, every win over Marshall was great!

 

[SiberianKnightmare]

The Kevin Smith run for TD at NC State was one of my favorite plays!

I was at that game. Amazing.
