UCF is led by Gus Malzahn, who is in his fourth year coaching the Knights. The 58-year-old is 27-16 as UCF's head coach. Colorado is led by Deion Sanders, who is in his second season as head coach of the Buffs and fifth season overall as a head coach. He's 7-9 at Colorado and 34-15 in his career.

Entering their road game against UCF as 14-point underdogs, few expected Colorado to come out on top, let alone dominate the Knights in their sold-out home stadium. The Buffaloes secured an emphatic win that sent a strong message to the rest of the Big 12 and the entire college football world.
