ORLANDO - For the fourth consecutive season and fifth time since 2019, UCF has sold out its football season tickets.

Following UCF's inaugural season in the Big 12 Conference, excitement is high for the Knights' second year in the league as today's announcement (May 7) marks the earliest that season tickets have ever sold out.

Since FBC Mortgage Stadium opened in 2007, UCF is 83-26 (.761) over 17 previous seasons playing home games at the stadium.

UCF kicks off the season with a pair of non-conference home games, as New Hampshire heads to Orlando for the season opener Thursday, Aug. 29, followed by a visit from Sam Houston Saturday, Sept. 7

The Knights will have their inaugural meetings against New Hampshire, Sam Houston, TCU, Colorado, Iowa State, Arizona and Utah on the gridiron this season. Five of the Knights' seven home games are against teams that will visit FBC Mortgage Stadium for the first time and two of UCF's four out of state road trips are followed by a bye week and the other two have a home game afterwards.

Since the start of the 2017 season, UCF has accumulated 65 wins, the ninth-most wins by an FBS program. The Knights went 13-0 in 2017, 12-1 in 2018, 10-3 in 2019, 6-4 in the Covid-shortened 2020 season, 9-4 in 2021, 9-5 in 2022 and 6-7 last season. The Knights join Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, Michigan and Appalachian State as the only programs to win at least 65 games since 2017.

Kickoff times for the first three weeks of the season will be announced this summer. The Big 12 will publish the remainder of the game times on a regular basis throughout the fall, on either a 12- or six-day turnaround from week to week.
