Central Florida gets first sellout against Texas
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Central Florida's inaugural game in a new stadium Saturday against No. 6 Texas also will be the first sellout in school history.
The Longhorns are the highest-ranked team UCF has ever hosted. The Knights played several miles from campus in downtown Orlando's Citrus Bowl before building the 45,000-seat Bright House Networks Stadium.
"I think that it is going to be a great home field advantage," coach George O'Leary said Tuesday. "If the fan base gets involved, the noise factor will be a major thing to contend with if you are a visiting team. I do think that it will be loud."
