UCF Defeats Arizona 56-12, Ends Streak

UCF halted a five-game losing streak by dominating Arizona 56-12, achieving their highest point total in a Big 12 game. The Knights' offense thrived under new quarterback Dylan Rizk, who passed for 293 yards and three touchdowns, while RJ Harvey rushed for 184 yards and three touchdowns. UCF scored on seven consecutive possessions, showcasing a balanced attack with 602 total yards, compared to Arizona's meager 261. Arizona struggled significantly, managing only five rushing yards and suffering their fifth consecutive loss, putting them in dire straits for bowl eligibility. Star receiver Tetairoa McMillan had a standout performance for the Wildcats, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Knights’ offensive onslaught. This game marked the first meeting between the two teams and highlighted UCF's resurgence after recent coaching changes.
