GAINESVILLE — UCF suffered its second straight season loss Saturday as Gus Malzahn’s team struggled to get much going, falling to Florida, 24-13. This was the lowest amount scored by the Knights since losing to Duke, 30-13, in the Military Bowl in 2022. Redshirt red flags Malzahn admitted he was disappointed that five of his players had decided to exercise the NCAA’s redshirt rule, opting out of the season to enter the transfer portal. “It’s a new age college football and you’ve got to adapt,” said Malzahn.
