Milton, No. 12 UCF beats SMU 48-20 for 18th straight win

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Unbeaten and barely tested.

No. 12 UCF won again by double digits Saturday night, continuing to build a resume the Knights hope will be worthy of consideration for a College Football Playoff berth in December.

McKenzie Milton threw for 278 yards and two touchdowns, and the defending American Athletic Conference champions extended the nation's longest winning streak to 18 games with a 48-20 victory over SMU on Saturday night.

"It's hard to go 1-0 every week," coach Josh Heupel said, stressing the mission at this juncture is to improve weekly and remain focused on the AAC race.
