Two brothers and their cousin will be on hand for the UCF-Pitt game.

For UCF free safety Marlon Williams, Friday's game against Pittsburgh was supposed to be a showdown with his little brother, Nick, a defensive tackle for the Panthers.

Because of a leg injury, though, Nick is out for the season. Despite the injury, Friday still will be a family affair for Williams. That's because his cousin, Rashaad Duncan, also is a Pitt defensive tackle.

It was a family tie the Williamses didn't know they had until last year.
