1 . The UCF Knights will win and cover the spread against Louisville

As of this writing according to WynnBET, UCF is -7 against Louisville. The Knights have outscored their opponents 99-45 this season and Gus Malzahn will have his team well prepared going into this game.

UCF is an excellent team when it plays on the road. Since 2018, UCF football is 11-4 in road games.

Louisville has only won half their home games since 2018. The Cardinals have a record of 11-9 at Cardinal Stadium during that timeframe.

QB Dillon Gabriel is now Central Florida’s 5th all-time leader in passing yards. He’ll continue racking up the passing yards against Louisville in Week 3.

If Dillon Gabriel and Isaiah Bowser are clicking, this team will put up a ton of points. The question will be if the UCF defense can hold off the attack from dual-threat Louisville quarterback Malik Cunningham. Cunningham likes to run just as much as he throws the ball, so UCF has a tall task ahead of them.
