Favored UCF taking underdog approach into homecoming matchup with Temple

Las Vegas oddsmakers have named UCF the favorite to defeat Temple when the programs collide Saturday night at Bright House Networks Stadium before an ESNPU audience.

No one inside the Knights' locker room seems to be buying that message — at least publicly.

"I don't think we ever look at point spreads or underdogs or any of that kind of thing. We're always the underdog," said UCF defensive coordinator Erik Chinander. "We're 0-12, that's just what we are. That's our team. I'm 0-12, the players are 0-12. I think we're gonna be the underdogs for the rest of our lives.
