UCF football team wants to avoid another letdown
It got its scare against UAB Saturday, and now that UCF is in the Conference USA East Division driver's seat with two games left, the Knights don't want to fall into the same trap this week at SMU.
"I think it was clear as a team that we didn't come out and play with the intensity that we should have or really give them the respect that they deserve as far as going out and playing a football game," said senior QB Kyle Israel. "I don't think it takes anybody saying anything. It's known and it showed in practice [Tuesday]."
While that message seems to have hit home on the offensive side of the ball, the Knights' defense may need an extra day to get the message. Coach George O'Leary sent the defense off the field midway through practice Tuesday and they didn't return.
