UCF Knights Face Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Raymond James Stadium in a Football Encounter

In a competitive face-off at Raymond James Stadium, the University of Central Florida Knights ended their season with a 6-7 record after falling to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, who improved to 7-6. The final score stood at 17-30 in favor of the visitors.

The UCF Knights started strong in the first quarter, outscoring the Yellow Jackets by 14 points. However, momentum shifted as Georgia Tech racked up 17 points in the second quarter while holding UCF to just three. The home team was unable to score in both third and fourth quarters, allowing an additional 13 points from their opponents.

The Knights' offense accumulated a total of 424 yards throughout the game. Their passing game contributed significantly with a total of 255 yards; two touchdowns were scored through air including one that was completed for an impressive distance of 57 yards. The quarterback's performance was notable with an overall rating of approximately 130 and completing over half his pass attempts.

On ground, UCF covered a respectable distance totaling up to 169 rushing yards but failed to convert these efforts into touchdowns. They did manage seven first downs via rushes and had an average gain per play across all types standing at around six yards.

Special teams had mixed results; while they successfully kicked one field goal from within twenty-nine yards out, another attempt from further away did not meet its mark. Kick returns were more fruitful for UCF as they managed nearly one hundred return yards throughout the game.

Penalties seemed controlled as only seven infractions were called against them for fifty-four penalty yards – staying below thresholds that would have highlighted disciplinary issues within their gameplay.

Defensively speaking, there was room for improvement as no sacks or safeties were recorded by UCF's defense during this encounter. They did manage two tackles for loss and defended against one pass effectively enough to intercept it – though it didn't result in any return yardage.

As fans reflect on this season's performances and look ahead, they can tune into future broadcasts featuring updates on off-season developments and preparations leading up to next year’s campaign where the University of Central Florida Knights will aim for redemption on football fields across America.
