Vitals: The UCF Knights are fresh off a thrilling 33-32 win over the Kansas Jayhawks last Saturday. Quarterback Alonza Barnett III marched UCF downfield in the final minute and threw the game-tying touchdown to tight end Caden Piening. Kicker Will Stone converted the game-winning PAT to snap a 12-game road losing skid dating back to October 2024. The Arizona State Sun Devils comfortably defeated the Colorado Buffaloes 20-10 last Saturday. Freshman Jake Fette threw for 187 yards and one touchdown. A win for either team punches their ticket to a bowl game after the season ends.

QUOTEABLE: "Arizona State's a really good team," Coach Scott Frost said during his Monday press conference. "They've been in every game they've been in except one. Same, similar to us."

Running back Duke Watson headlines a lengthy injury report ahead of their home game against Arizona State.

Watson was carted off the field in last Saturday's thriller win over the Kansas Jayhawks. He wore street clothes and a boot on his right foot on the sidelines.

Frost couldn't provide an update on the junior's status in his weekly press conference on Monday. He said he'd learn more Monday evening, and now the Knights will be without their speedster workhorse.

While UCF is without key players, the team could get linebacker Lewis Carter back, as he's listed as probable. Carter has missed every conference game starting from Week 4.

The 6-foot senior is UCF's heart of the front seven. He leads as the captain, calling out offensive adjustments and communicating with his teammates.

Getting back a major defensive addition shores up the middle of the field and gives defensive coordinator Alex Grinch peace of mind.

Grinch said he feels better when Carter is out on the field quarterbacking the defense.
