ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - Sunday's update on the UCF football team. The Knights will not be practicing Sunday after having sessions from Aug. 1-11.

News



-On Saturday, UCF kept the shoulder pads in the locker room during the 11th practice of the preseason.



-Josh Reese and Kevin Garvy notched solid touchdown receptions during the first half of the session before the Knights held a 35-minute tag-off scrimmage.



-It was the first time UCF held a segmented scrimmage with the coaches and all of the players on the sideline (the offense usually stands behind the line of scrimmage during practices).



-The defense looked solid with the offense unable to produce points until eventually Blake Bortles hit Quincy McDuffie on a 37-yard touchdown pass, and Tyler Gabbert found Jeff Godfrey twice on an ensuing drive, topped off with a 30-yard TD catch by Godfrey.



-Freshman cornerback Jacoby Glenn had several key break-ups throughout the day, while sophomore cornerback Jonathan Davis had two during the scrimmage and senior linebacker Jonathan Davis notched an impressive sack.
