Pass defense will be a critical factor again today. Can UCF pressure the QB (and get home to finish the play)? Can they avoid the big Arizona downfield plays.

Who in the defensive backfield is available!? M. McWilliams was out last week (starter at corner), as was L. Tennison (starter at safety). Nickel B. Marshall missed the second half of the game last week as well.

T. McMillan leads the Big 12 in receiving by a large margin. The likely first round pick in this year’s draft is 6-5/212.

Most importantly, can the ‘Nauts keep their undefeated streak alive in Space Games?

My prediction: Arizona 28, UCF 24
 
I wouldn’t put much stock in that. They rarely ever update the depth chart in the Malzhan era. When a player opts out mid season is about the only time they edit/change that thing.

I would guess Rizk is starting, but I guess we will see.
According to news reports Rizk is starting today. I am looking forward to seeing what he can do.
 
Can someone explain to a simpleton like me, the significance of the space game? Besides the uniforms? Gus Bust keeps mentioning it.
 
I’ll take the bait. I think we win this one as well.

But if we lose, more steam to get rid of Gus and Terry 😅
 
meh... Rizk looked good.. if he had more reps with the first team who knows. Db's still playing 10 years off.
 
This is legit. Having unfortunately lived in that shit hole town for a few short years (Tucson), this warms my heart.
 
it's shocking how offensive players look competent when every defender isn't in the box and you're running on every play. just the threat of the QB throwing the ball accurately gives the defense pause. such a sad state of affairs that our genius coach couldn't see that and had to wait for the season to go to shit and change was forced on him.
