DripU Report: Game 3

After an unprecedented offseason and a couple of big-time road wins, UCF will finally make its return to the Bounce House this Saturday to take on Tulsa.

And the Knights will be donning one of the sleekest looks in college football when they take the field.

UCF will pick up its home slate right where it left off, going with the same blackout that the team sported as it pummeled South Florida to close out the 2019 regular season.

These days, plenty of teams around the nation find a reason to wear all-black uniforms, regardless of their traditional color schemes. But no one does it quite like a team whose identity is built on black and gold.

The black helmets feature that shimmering chrome gold UCF logo and sword stripe that have become such a part of the team's brand, pairing perfectly with the gold accents of the jersey. The white numbers and player names really pop to provide some contrast to the overall uniform, and tie together the look that still comes to mind first for most when they think of UCF.

Three games into the season, the versatility of the Knights' uniform set has been on full display as the team has sported three very different looks. From the Gold/Anthracite/Anthracite combo that emphasizes gray so well to the classic road look of Gold/White/Black, this team continues to be one of the best-dressed in the nation.
