Jacurri Brown - Starting spot uncertain Brown may not start under center this Saturday against Arizona, Brandon Helwig of Rivals.com reports.

Impact Brown, who was benched during last week's loss against BYU after throwing two picks, is competing with Dylan Rizk to stay under center against the Wildcats. The 6-foot-4 redshirt sophomore, a transfer from Miami, has tallied 387 passing yards (34-of-66), one touchdown and four interceptions across five outings, adding on 339 yards and two scores with his legs. When asked about who would start against Arizona, head coach Gus Malzahn declined to name a starter, making this a situation to monitor as we approach kickoff.

Dylan Rizk - May start Saturday Rizk is in consideration for the start under center during Saturday's matchup with Arizona, Brandon Helwig of Rivals.com reports.

Impact Rizk looked good after entering last Saturday's loss against BYU following the benching of Jacurri Brown; throwing for 102 yards (6-of-10) and a touchdown in the contest. When asked about who would be under center against the Wildcats in Week 10, head coach Gus Malzahn declined to name a starter. UCF's quarterback situation will be something to monitor heading up until game time with either Rizk, Brown or both quarterbacks a possibility under center against Arizona.

Kobe Hudson - Says he'll play Hudson (leg) said on his personal X account that he'll play in Saturday's game versus Arizona.

Impact Upon seeing reports that he was questionable to play on Saturday, Hudson took to social media to say that he would play versus the Wildcats. He suffered a leg injury in last Saturday's game versus BYU but is apparently healthy enough to give it a go this week. The senior has 27 catches for 509 yards and three touchdowns this season.

Kobe Hudson - Deemed questionable for Saturday Hudson (leg) is questionable for Saturday's game against Arizona, Stephen Leonard of 247sports.com reports.

Impact The fact that Hudson has not been ruled out entirely after being helped off the field last week is an encouraging sign. The senior wideout had one grab for six yards before departing the game in the first half and currently leads the team with 27 catches for 509 yards and three touchdowns. If he's able to play in any capacity, it would be a nice boost for the offense that has scored under 30 points in four of its last five games.

2024 College Football odds Week 10: Lines, spreads for best games of the week

College football Week 10 is here. Check out the lines for some of the biggest games on this weekend's slate.

OCTOBER 29

Jacoby Jones - Solid night in loss Jones gathered in 6 of 8 targets for 116 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-24 loss versus Brigham Young.

Impact Although UCF struggled once again, the passing game got a spark with Dylan Rizk late in the game, and Jones was the primary beneficiary. His touchdown catch was a key part of a late rally that made the game look a lot closer on paper. Saturday's game represents most of Jones' numbers for the year, and he certainly expected more after transferring from Ohio in the offseason.

OCTOBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

RJ Harvey - Lone bright spot in offense Harvey posted 16 carries for 127 yards and two touchdowns and gathered in 2 of 3 targets for 10 yards during Saturday's 37-24 defeat to Brigham Young.

Impact Amid UCF's several struggles, Harvey has remained consistent. His voluminous output has vaulted to third place in the FBS behind Ashton Jeanty and Kaleb Johnson with 1,017 yards and 13 touchdowns. It's evident that Harvey is immune from the numerous shortcomings plaguing the team.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Dylan Rizk - Takes over as QB during loss Rizk was 6-for-10 passing for 102 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-24 loss to Brigham Young. He also had four rushes for 31 yards.

Impact The Knights ended the game with a flurry of production, and it happened while Rizk was running the show. The redshirt freshman's performance was probably one of the best showings by UCF quarterback this season, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him earn his first start against Arizona this week.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Jacurri Brown - Gets benched during loss Brown was 8-for-17 passing for 96 yards and two interceptions during Saturday's 37-24 defeat against Brigham Young. He also had six rushes for nine yards.

Impact RJ Harvey is currently the only bright spot for UCF's offense, and the quarterback position has continued to be an issue. DylanR izk replaced Brown late in the game and had more success, but the team hasn't been the same since KJ Jefferson's benching. It's anyone's guess who will be under center next week against Arizona, and Brown may have lost his hold on the job.
