4-8 · 14TH IN BIG 12
Four things to know about TCU football's next opponent, the UCF Knights UCF is led by quarterback K.J. Jefferson and an elite tandem of skill players.
Kobe Hudson - Logs 104 receiving yards in win Hudson had five receptions (on six targets) for 104 yards during Saturday's 45-14 win versus Sam Houston State.
Impact Hudson represented over half of UCF's passing yardage in the victory. Although Hudson hasn't found the end zone yet, he's quickly established a rapport with KJ Jefferson and will remain a vital part of the offensive attack despite less emphasis on the passing game.

Myles Montgomery - Scores in reserve role Montgomery notched nine carries for 51 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 45-14 victory against Sam Houston State.
Impact Montgomery typically shares backup duties with Peny Boone behind RJ Harvey, but the lopsided win allowed him more snaps in the backfield. His position on the depth chart makes him a less-reliable fantasy target when the Knights face a strong opponent.

Peny Boone - Excels as backup runner in win Boone compiled 10 rushes for 54 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 45-14 win against Sam Houston State.
Impact Boone was able to play a bit more due to the blowout, but Boone is also firmly established as the change-of-pace back weekly for the Knights. UCF has several tough opponents upcoming on the schedule, so this could be the highest total we see from Boone for a while.

RJ Harvey - Romps for four touchdowns Harvey recorded 19 rushes for 126 yards and four touchdowns during Saturday's 45-14 win against Sam Houston State.
Impact The Knights did little more than hand Harvey the rock, as Saam Houston had no answer for his running ability. The senior has some of the best running stats in the country currently with 268 yards and six touchdowns through two games.

Impact Jefferson had very little trouble on Saturday, utilizing his dual-threat ability to great effect. He wasn't personally responsible for any of the team's touchdowns, but that will be a rare event for the Knights this season.

Sideline-to-helmet communications garner praise, some frustration in Week 1
Helmet communication has come to major college football, and early returns on the new technology were mixed after Week 1.SEPTEMBER 1
Xavier Townsend - Does little in blowout Townsend tallied one reception (on two targets) for four yards during Thursday's 57-3 victory versus New Hampshire.
Impact KJ Jefferson made only 14 pass attempts in the game, which had a negative effect on all of UCF's pass catchers. It may take some time for Jefferson to get acquainted with his targets after missing spring scrimmages and team practices, at which point the talented junior wideout should see some results.
AUGUST 30 • ROTOWIRE
Peny Boone - Runs for TD in debut with new team Boone totaled seven rushes for 81 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 57-3 victory versus New Hampshire.
Impact The former MAC Offensive Player of the year made his presence known early as a member of the Knights. The Toledo transfer cemented his role as the direct backup to RJ Harvey after an impressive debut. He averaged 11.6 yards per carry and scored his first touchdown with UCF during the victory.
AUGUST 30 • ROTOWIRE
Johnny Richardson - Grabs TD pass in blowout Richardson accrued seven rushes for 40 yards and hauled in 1 of 2 targets for 22 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 57-3 victory over New Hampshire.
Impact Richardson had his best season at UCF with 573 yards and a touchdown in 2023, which is impressive considering his position on the depth chart. The blowout win gave the senior additional opportunity, and he capitalized with the eighth touchdown in his college career. Richardson will be relevant against weaker opponents, but RJ Harvey will continue to dominate touches in the backfield when the game is competitive.
AUGUST 30 • ROTOWIRE
Myles Montgomery - Diverse line as backup Montgomery logged eight carries for 77 yards and one touchdown and hauled in their only target for 49 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 57-3 victory against New Hampshire.
Impact Montgomery will spend the season as a change-of-pace back behind RJ Harvey, but he enjoyed extended playing time with the game well in hand. His sole reception was 49-yard romp to the end zone, and he also distinguished himself with a rushing touchdown.
AUGUST 30 • ROTOWIRE
RJ Harvey - Logs massive haul in victory Harvey tallied 11 rushes for 142 yards and two touchdowns and caught his only target for eight yards during Thursday's 57-3 victory over New Hampshire.
Impact New Hampshire's defense was helpless against Harvey, who averaged 11 yards per carry in the blowout win. Although the Knights got an upgrade at quarterback with KJ Jefferson in the offseason, the running game will be the focus of this offense, and Harvey will supply the firepower. He should experience similar success next week against Sam Houston.

Impact Although Jefferson was shaky to begin the game, he eventually woke up and finished strong before ceding to Jacurri Brown in the second half. Since Jefferson didn't take live snaps with his new team in spring practice or fall camp, his slow start was understandable. Although running back RJ Harvey was the star of this game, Jefferson's debut was an encouraging sign for the Knights.
