Scrappy Knights survive scare
UCF overcomes a sloppy first half with solid defense to top the Ragin' Cajuns.
Nine games are done in UCF's 2007-2008 campaign, but the Knights' search for an identity is still a work in progress.
UCF scrapped and ground its way to a 65-52 win over Louisiana-Lafayette Tuesday. But with its first real road trip of the season up next, it's clear that that this team still hasn't found the smoothness it will need to have with the start of conference season barely a month away.
For 20 minutes Tuesday, the Knights struggled to gain any cushion against a feisty Ragin' Cajuns lineup that came in 1-4 but hung around by forcing UCF's offense to bobble exchanges and get limited clear looks at the basket early on.
