Milton and the UCF Knights were at center stage of the college football world this weekend, as they had their first prime-time game on ABC. Riding a 22 game winning streak Milton helped the offense dictate the pace of the game early.

He was 13 for 25 with 260 yards through the air and three touchdowns. He couldn’t really get much going on the ground but did pick up a rushing touchdown.

Milton and the Knights offense are averaging over 41 points per game in their last three wins. They face South Florida and the Bulls defense has struggled this year, giving up over 430 total yards of offense per game.

UCF is now 23-0 over the last two seasons and is sitting pretty with the number nine spot in the college football playoff rankings. If they can win next week and Milton continues to put up  big numbers he could sneak into the top three and earn a trip to New York.
