UCF football may get schedule boost following SEC decision

UCF’s football scheduling challenges may ease a bit after the SEC announced it is moving forward with a conference-only schedule this fall.

The decision wipes away a handful of rivalry games between SEC and ACC teams, including Florida versus Florida State, Georgia versus Georgia Tech, Clemson versus South Carolina and Louisville versus Kentucky.

The Knights were set to play North Carolina at home to kick off the season and play at Georgia Tech on Sept. 18. The Tar Heels were expected to choose the SEC’s Auburn and the Yellow Jackets were expected to pick Georgia as their sole nonconference opponents.
