The Knights already were without starting center Matt Lee (ankle) at Louisville two weeks ago then lost running back Isaiah Bowser (knee), wide receiver Jaylon Robinson (knee), defensive lineman Ricky Barber (knee), defensive back Corey Thornton (concussion), linebacker Tatum Bethune (concussion) and quarterback Dillon Gabriel (broken collarbone).
The week off between games provided more times for players to receive treatment and give their bodies a break, but it’s still too early to say who will be available against the Midshipmen.
UCF coach Gus Malzahn provided an update Monday on Lee, who tweaked his ankle vs. Bethune-Cookman on Sept.
