Gus Malzahn's inaugural season as football coach at UCF will be the subject of a new, multi-part all-access documentary series exclusively on ESPN+.
Titled "Our Time: UCF Football," the weekly episodes will premiere Thursday, Sept. 9.
"This will be a great opportunity for Knight fans to learn what goes on inside UCF football beyond what they see sitting in the stands on game days or watching on television," says Malzahn.
The shows will give fans behind-the-scenes looks at all aspects of Malzahn's first season at UCF—with unique access provided by Malzahn, his staff and players. The episodes offer an inside look at a veteran head coach, a newly formed staff of assistants (many with a previous connection to Malzahn) and the overall campus excitement generated by the start of the Malzahn era in Orlando.
Viewers will go inside the meeting rooms and locker rooms—and hear from Knight coaches and players who are mic'd up for various segments.
"There's tremendous interest in Gus Malzahn's first season here at UCF, and this will be a perfect platform to view it up close and personal," says Terry Mohajir, UCF vice president and director of athletics. "I can't wait to see what the series looks like."
The UCF series will mark the third in the "Our Time" series following Oklahoma State and Kansas programs during the 2020 and 2019 seasons.
Here is the full schedule for "Our Time: UCF Football" episodes:
--Sept. 9, 16 and 23
--Oct. 7, 14, 21 and 28
--Nov. 4, 11, 18 and 25
--Dec. 2
The series is being produced by Bo Mattingly in partnership with executive producer Mike McKinnis and JM Associates—in conjunction with the American Athletic Conference.
