Projection: likely out
UCF's resume shows promise with notable wins against Texas A&M and Texas Tech, demonstrating their ability to compete against strong opponents. However, their hefty loss to Kansas, where they fell short by a wide margin, coupled with losses against the likes of Houston and Iowa State, raises concerns about their consistency and defensive vulnerabilities. The team’s struggles on the road, especially highlighted by their games at Arizona and at Iowa State, further compound the issues, while their lack of a robust conference record could sting their chances. To improve their standing, UCF needs to secure victories in upcoming matchups, particularly against teams within the Big 12, where each win would enhance their postseason hopes.
