Notes

Live Team Notes

Killed WVU, 550+ yds to 200, Run/Pass both great

Stopped bleeding now 4-3 into bye, can they bowl?

Off Success #'s poor but Expl high, all or nothing

Killed NC, Jackson looked decent, Def was great

QB T Jackson played OK w/ Fancher hurt (Jax St)

Run game alarmingly bad in opener vs Jax St

QB1 Fancher (FAU) wins starting job in camp

New staff, over 70 newcomers, big mystery

UCF 13th in YPP margin, +108 YPG in '24

UCF was 1-3 in 1 score games LY
