As we get closer and closer to the Peach Bowl on New Year’s Day, it’s time to continue our preview of UCF position-by-position. We’ve talked about their running backs (talkin’ trash), and their quarterbacks (daring to finish ahead of Kerryon Johnson in the Heisman voting), and so we’ll flip the script and go across the line of scrimmage to the defense.
Namely, the linebackers, which are actually a very good unit for the UCF Knights.
They’re led by All-American and former AAC Defensive Player of the Year Shaquem Griffin.
