Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl – Virginia Tech Hokies vs UCF Knights

The Virginia Tech Hokies followed up their big Week 1 win with 62-17 beat down on William & Mary. Quarterback Josh Jackson has played great in their first two games, throwing for 424 yards, three touchdowns and completing almost 67 percent of his passes.

The Hokies take on ECU this Saturday and Jackson should continue his hot start to the season, which should leave Tech on our list for another week.

The UCF Knights had their Week 3 game versus North Carolina canceled do to Hurricane Florence. So as the Knights sit out this Saturday, let’s just take a look at a nearly impossible feat they have accomplished. Their victory in Week 3 marked their 631st straight day (and counting) without a loss. By season’s end, the Knights could surpass the two-year mark since their last loss and have 26-game winning streak to head into the 2019 season.
