Injuries, missing run game lowlights of UCF loss at No. 20 Houston | 5 things we learned

UCF squandered a seventeen-point advantage on the road, surrendering twenty-seven unanswered points to suffer a twenty-seven to seventeen defeat against twentieth-ranked Houston. The Knights struggled with mounting roster attrition, playing without four regular starters while suffering further in-game injuries to center Jacob Maiava and linebacker Jayden Jennings.

Quarterback Keyone Jenkins performed admirably while filling in for the injured Alonza Barnett III, tallying over two hundred passing yards and accounting for two touchdowns despite battling cramps. Head coach Scott Frost noted that the running game stalled because Houston stacked the defensive box, forcing the offense to rely heavily on run-pass options.
