American Athle c Conference Coach of the Year - 2013C-USA Coach of the Year - 2005, 2007, 2010 • ACC Coach of the Year - 1998, 2000 In his 11th year at UCF in 2014, George O’Leary has helped the Knights achieve dozens of historic fi rsts, including games in front of sellout crowds on campus, individual accolades for student-athletes, three conference championships, plenty of na onal television exposure and victories in pres gious bowl games. For O’Leary, it has been business as usual. Since taking over the program in 2004, O’Leary has made sure that UCF has reached new heights. The seventh-longest-tenured coach in the FBS, the veteran football mind has molded his program into a consistent winner on and off of the fi eld. His hard work contributed to the construc on of Bright House Networks Stadium. Interest in the pro-gram has never been higher. His student-athletes are enjoying record success in the classroom, and the Knights are winning on the football fi eld. UCF has won back-to-back conference tles for the fi rst me in school history, claiming the Ameri-can Athle c Conference crown in 2013 and 2014. The Knights have won 31 games since 2012, which is the seventh-most in the country. The Knights also have won three consecu ve bowl games entering the 2014 Bitcoin St. Petersburg Bowl, which is ed for the fourth-longest ac ve bowl streak in the FBS as well. This year’s 9-3 record marks the third straight year and the fourth me in the last fi ve seasons UCF has collected at least nine victories. Joining The American in 2013, UCF set school re-cords with 12 wins, including its fi rst two wins over top-10 teams (No. 8/6 Louisville and No. 6/5 Baylor) and its fi rst victories against Big Ten (Penn State) and Big 12 (Baylor) programs. And on Dec. 8, exactly 10 years to the day O’Leary was hired at UCF, the Knights accepted their fi rst BCS bowl berth. Ranked No. 15 heading into the Tos tos Fiesta Bowl, UCF lit up University of Phoenix Stadium with a 52-42 triumph over Big 12 champion Baylor. And the celebra on con nued in the days a er as the Knights achieved their fi rst top-10 ranking by placing 10th in the fi nal AP Top 25 Poll. They were then honored by thousands with a massive pep rally at CFE Arena and a once-in-a-life me parade at Magic Kingdom. To top it off , Blake Bortles became the highest NFL Dra pick in UCF history when he was selected third overall by Jacksonville.

Helping UCF Arrive on the Na onal Scene O’Leary has already le his stamp on the Knights’ program. When he arrived in Orlando in 2004, UCF was not a factor on the regional or na onal scenes. He rebuilt the program from the ground up. He lob-bied for new facili es, toured the state to gain public-ity, restocked UCF with top recruits and made sure his student-athletes excelled in their studies. Just one year removed from an 0-11 campaign, he guided the Knights to an historic season in 2005, cap-ping it off with the program’s fi rst bowl appearance. O’Leary led UCF to the fourth-best turnaround in NCAA history with a record of 8-5. The Knights went 7-1 in C-USA and claimed the league’s East Division tle. The squad became just the sixth team in NCAA

history to go to a bowl game a year a er going win-

less as the Knights par cipated in the Sheraton Ha-waii Bowl. The 2006 season featured several memorable moments for the Knights as they fi nished their fi nal campaign at the Florida Citrus Bowl. Wide receiver Mike Sims-Walker had a record-breaking season. The Orlando na ve broke the single-season school record for recep ons with 90 and hauled in 1,178 receiv-ing yards just a year removed from an ACL injury. He earned All-C-USA First Team honors and was one of fi ve Knights recognized for their strong play by the league offi ce. The growth of the program was no more evident than in 2007. UCF posted a then-school-record seven-game winning streak during the season. The confer-ence championship was the fi rst in program history. And O’Leary helped tailback Kevin Smith post one of the most dominant single-season rushing perfor-mances. The junior rushed for 2,567 yards, good for second all- me in NCAA history, and 29 touchdowns. He became the only rusher in the state of Florida and the 12th all- me in the NCAA FBS to eclipse the 2,000-yard mark.

Excellence off the Field O’Leary has reshaped the UCF program in every facet, including improved results in the classroom. The Knights exited C-USA as the top football program academically in 2011 and 2012, then con nued that trend by winning the American Athle c Conference Team Academic Excellence Award for 2013. When the 2014 Gradua on Success Rates were released by the NCAA, UCF’s 90 percent was the 10th highest among all FBS schools, third among public in-s tu ons and fi rst in the state of Florida and in the conference. It was the eighth consecu ve year the football program improved its GSR, and it was a pro-gram-best score. During that 2013 campaign, the Knights checked in with a program-high APR of 994 for 2012-13, only six points shy of a perfect score and ed for fi h in the country. It also marked eight consecu ve years that UCF was ahead of the na onal average. UCF’s mul -year APR rate jumped from 975 to 978, placing the Knights 15th overall among all FBS schools and 27 points higher than the average. UCF became the fi rst football program in C-USA history to have a team GPA of at least 3.0 when it ac-complished the feat in its fi nal year in the league. The American Football Coaches Associa on rec-ognized UCF football on Nov. 29, 2011, for being one of just 17 ins tu ons gradua ng at least 90 percent of its members of the freshman student-athlete class of 2004, which was UCF’s fi rst year with O’Leary at the helm of the program. Defensive lineman Keith Shologan became the fi rst player in school history to receive ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America First Team honors in 2007. Rocky Ross picked up Academic All-America honors in 2009, as did Lyle Dankenbring in 2012. Ross, Shologan, Sha’reff Rashad, Josh Linam and Ray Ship-man have been selected to the C-USA Football All-Academic Team under O’Leary. T.J. Harnden received UCF’s highest honor, the Order of Pegasus, in 2009,

2005 SHERATON HAWAII BOWL

HONOLULU - UCF dropped a 49-48 over me decision to Nevada in the 2005 Sheraton Hawaii Bowl, the fi rst bowl game in school history. The Knights fi nished the season with an 8-5 record, just one year a er going 0-11. The turnaround of seven games from 2004 placed UCF ed with seven other schools for the fourth-best single-season turnaround in Football Bowl Subdivision history. UCF kicker Ma Prater, who had three fi eld goals during the game, missed the game-tying extra point wide right, giving the Wolf Pack the win. B.J. Mitchell ran for 178 yards and two touchdowns, and Robert Hubbard had 126 yards rushing and three touchdowns for the Wolf Pack (9-3), who fi nished with their best season since 1996 and spoiled UCF’s bowl debut. UCF’s Brandon Marshall caught a 16-yard pass for a touchdown that ed the game at 42 with 55 seconds le . The score capped a four-play, 48-yard drive that took just 37 seconds. Prater booted a 46-yard fi eld goal with 1:32 le to draw UCF to 42-35, and the Knights recovered the onside kick with no me-outs le , se ng up Marshall’s drama c catch that sent the game into over me. Trailing 32-28, the Wolf Pack took the lead on Hubbard’s 5-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter. Nevada scored again on Rowe’s 7-yard scoring pass to Travis Branzell for a 42-32 lead with 3:18 remaining. Kevin Smith, Conference USA’s Freshman of the Year, scored on a 78-yard run, the second longest run from scrimmage in UCF history, to give the Knights a 14-0 lead in the fi rst quarter. The run was the longest in school history by a freshman and in UCF’s 10-year Football Bowl Subdivision history. The longest run from scrimmage in UCF history was Elgin Davis’ 79-yard scoring run vs. Samford (Nov. 15, 1986). The 78-yard touchdown run by Smith was the second-longest run by a true fresh-man in the NCAA during the year. It also marked the longest run in Sheraton Hawaii Bowl history.

DECEMBER 29, 2007 MEMPHIS, TENN.LIBERTY BOWL MEMORIAL STADIUM

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - UCF’s memorable season came to a close in a 10-3 loss to Mis-sissippi State in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. Anthony Dixon powered in from the 1 for the winning touchdown with 1:54 to go, and most valuable player Derek Pegues picked off two passes in a game featuring anemic off enses and 17 punts. The Bulldogs (8-5) kept the Knights (10-4) out of the end zone and Kevin Smith from breaking the single-season rushing record. The junior fi nished with 119 yards, leaving him 61 shy of Barry Sanders’ mark of 2,628 yards set for Oklahoma State in 1988.

“I was trying to fi nd the holes, but they were playing faster than us,” Smith said.

It was the lowest scoring Liberty Bowl since Penn State beat Tulane 9-6 in 1979, but the pro-Mississippi State record crowd of 63,816 was rewarded for its pa ence as Dixon and the Bulldogs off ense came alive late in the fourth quarter.

Dixon fi nished with 86 yards and became the seventh Bulldogs runner to go more than 1,000 yards (1,066). But like the rest of the Bulldogs, he was ineff ec ve much of the game.

The teams were ed 3-3 at hal ime, mostly due to conserva ve play-calling.

Neither team converted a third down in the fi rst half (0 for 16) as Mississippi State was held to 84 total yards and UCF to 79.

Israel had 12 yards passing and two intercep ons by hal ime and Mississippi State’s Wes Carroll had 15 yards and an intercep on. UCF also didn’t get much help from kicker Michael Torres, who gave the Knights a 3-0 lead in the second quarter with a 45-yard fi eld goal, but missed from 32 and 37 in the second half.

“I think those missed fi eld goals were big momentum breakers,” UCF coach George O’Leary said. “Give Mississippi State credit. They fought hard and didn’t turn the ball over. That usually means you’re going to come up with a close win like that.”

Mississippi State fi nished with 199 total yards and Blake McAdams ed the Liberty Bowl record with 11 punts. But the Bulldogs came up with just enough big plays a er Keith Fitzhugh picked off Israel’s pass at the Mississippi State 41 with 5:47 le .

Carroll, pulled the series before, returned and responded with two rushes for 17 yards and two comple ons for 15 yards. All went for fi rst downs and spurred a 10-play, 59-yard drive that consumed 3:53 and fi nally led to a touchdown.

Pegues, fi ngly, made the fi nal key defensive play, knocking down a fourth-down pass on UCF’s fi nal drive. The Bulldogs held the Knights to 219 yards and forced four turnovers.

The junior safety gave Mississippi State two opportuni es with intercep ons in the fi rst 30 minutes, returning the ball to UCF’s 6 and 38. The safety’s fi rst pick set up a 22-yard fi eld goal by Adam Carlson in the second quarter.

DECEMBER 19, 2009 ST. PETERSBURG, FLA.TROPICANA FIELD

2009 ST. PETERSBURG BOWL

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The St. Petersburg Bowl presented what seemed to be a perfect storm for UCF with 20,000 of its fans packed inside Tropicana Field and a hot football team posi oned for the fi rst bowl victory in school history.

But an avalanche of errors combined with a speedy, physical opponent in Rutgers ruined what could have been a dreamy, feel-good night for UCF’s program and its hopeful fanbase.

Down four points late in the second quarter, UCF allowed an intercep on return to sap its momentum and the Knights could never mount much of a comeback in a disappoin ng 45-24 loss to Rutgers in the second St. Petersburg Bowl presented by Beef `O’ Brady’s.

UCF (8-5) had hoped that the momentum of a strong fi nish to the regular season, one in which it won the fi nal six conference games and knocked off Marshall, Houston and UAB down the stretch, would carry over to the bowl game. But problems on both sides of the ball sabotaged the Knights’ chances of pulling off the upset in this game.

Playing before roughly 20,000 Knights fans among the Tropicana Field crowd of 29,763, UCF ne ed just 35 yards on the ground, 33 of them coming in the fourth quarter when the outcome of the game was already decided. And in the passing game, two Bre Hodges’ intercep ons led to 14 points for Rutgers, bowl winners for a fourth consecu ve season. And UCF’s defense yielded 380 yards and eight third-down conversions.

Rutgers (9-4) played like an experienced team in its fi h consecu ve bowl, using big plays on off ense and an a acking defense to frustrate the Knights. Rutgers got six sacks and two intercep ons defensively and freshman quarterback Tom Savage threw for 294 yards and two TDs.

DECEMBER 31, 2010 MEMPHIS, TENN.LIBERTY BOWL MEMORIAL STADIUM

2010 AUTOZONE LIBERTY BOWL

MEMPHIS, Tenn. - A UCF football program clearly on the rise as a powerhouse to be reckoned with na onally registered a landmark victory in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl, bea ng Southeastern Conference power Georgia while registering the school’s fi rst-ever bowl victory.

When UCF sophomore safety Kemal Ishmael ba ed down a Hail Mary pass that seemed to hang in the air forever, it preserved No. 24 UCF’s 10-6 defeat of Georgia and set off a wild celebra on among the 8,000 Knights fans who roared with noise inside the Liberty Bowl.

Doing something for a fi rst me is never easy, and this fi rst-ever bowl victory for UCF went down to the fi nal seconds. Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray heaved a pass into the end zone for 6-foot-4 superstar wide out A.J. Green, but Ishmael was there to make the game-saving play that is sure to live in the history of the program for years to come.

Sophomore tailback Latavius Murray, the game’s Outstanding Off ensive Player and the MVP, scored on a 10-yard run with 9:01 to play to put the Knights ahead 10-6. And a defense that was dominant a couple of weeks ago in the Conference USA tle game made it stand up. They held a Georgia off ense that came in averaging

34.3 points a game to just two fi eld goals and no touchdowns.

Freshman quarterback Jeff Godfrey capped a stellar fi rst season on campus, helping the program win a C-USA tle and the school’s fi rst bowl game. He completed 16 of 29 passes for 117 yards.

Georgia drove 61 yards on the fi rst drive of the second half, but again had to se le for a Blair Walsh 42-yard fi eld goal when the Knights got crucial pass break-ups from Ishmael and senior cornerback Jus n Boddie. That 6-3 Georgia Bulldog lead would be its fi nal advantage of the game because they couldn’t score against UCF’s gri y defense.

UCF appeared to have scored fi rst for the 13th me in 14 games when Quincy McDuffi e took the opening kickoff back 98 yards. McDuffi e, one of only nine players in the na on to return two kicks for touchdowns, hit a seam and sprint-ed for an apparent touchdown. However, the return was negated by a holding penalty on UCF special teams ace Ronnie Weaver.

Georgia’s fi rst drive started at the 2-yard line following a 56-yard boot by UCF senior punter Blake Clingan, but the Bulldogs proceeded to march 95 yards in the next 15 plays. But the Knights s ff ened up near the goal line, forcing Georgia to se le for a fi eld goal that put the `Dogs up 3-0, and the Knights ed the game up 3-3 just before the half.

Ball State 17UCF 38DECEMBER 21, 2012 ST. PETERSBURG, FLA.TROPICANA FIELD

2012 BEEF ‘O’ BRADY’S BOWL

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - The slogan for UCF in 2012 was “Finish.” And the Knights did just that with an exclama on point in the 2012 Beef `O’ Brady’s Bowl. UCF earned its second bowl victory in program history with a 38-17 win over Ball State.

UCF clinched its 10th victory of the season behind an impressive eff ort by the duo of senior running back Latavius Murray and sophomore signal-caller Blake Bortles. Bortles capped his fi rst full season in style, earning MVP honors while fi nishing 22-of-33 for 271 yards and three passing touchdowns. He also led the team with a career-high 80 yards on the ground and another score. Murray was just as impres-sive, cashing in for three touchdowns (all in the fi rst half) and 104 total yards, with 71 on the ground and 33 through the air on a team-high six catches.

A er winning the toss and receiving the ball to start the game, UCF matriculated down the fi eld, mixing the run and pass well on a 13-play, 78-yard drive that was capped off by a Bortles-to-Murray touchdown connec on. The drive ate 7:33 off the clock and was aided by the sophomore QB’s ability to evade the pass rush, while also connec ng with rookie Breshad Perriman three mes for 21 yards and a pair of fi rst downs.

With the defense forcing a quick three-and-out, UCF’s off ense con nued its impressive start with a seven-play 58-yard drive that saw Murray reach pay-dirt on a short 2-yard burst. The Knights closed out the fi rst quarter outgaining the Cardinals, 160-15.

Ball State would se le in, however, with an 82-yard drive for seven points that saw Keith Wenning hit Willie Snead from seven yards out to make it a 13-7 contest in the second quarter.

UCF responded with Bortles completely taking over on the ensuing drive. The Oviedo na ve became a dual threat on the drive, rushing three mes for 32 yards, including a 6-yard scramble up the middle that saw him bulldoze a pair of Cardinal defenders on his way to the end zone. He capped the scoring drive with UCF’s fi rst two-point conversion since Sept. 5, 2009, hi ng senior H-back Dontravius Floyd in the back of the end zone.

Ball State drove right back into UCF territory, reaching the Knights’ 10-yard line prior to freshman DL Thomas Niles sacking Wenning for an 11-yard loss. The third-down tackle for loss resulted in a much longer fi eld-goal a empt, which sailed well le of the uprights.

Star ng on its own 32-yard line with just 55 seconds le in the half, Bortles hit junior Jeff Godfrey and Murray for 12 and 10 yards before launching a 45-yard beauty to a streaking Perriman, who fi nished with a career-best 90 yards on fi ve catches, on the far side line. The career-long recep on led to Bortles hi ng Mur-ray for the second me in the half, this me from fi ve yards out with just fi ve cks le on the fi rst-half clock.

A er a 45-yard fi eld goal by Scho to make it 28-10 with 7:54 le in the third quarter, the Cardinals a empted an onside kick that redshirt sophomore running back Cedric Thompson grabbed out of the air safely to set up the Knights at the BSU 49-yard line.

Bortles con nued to shred the Ball State defense with the prime fi eld posi on. He racked up 41 of the next 49 yards through the air, tying his career record and a Beef `O’ Brady’s Bowl mark with touchdown pass No. 3 from seven yards out to fellow sophomore J.J. Worton.

Sophomore Shawn Moffi would cap the Knights’ scoring on the year with a 25-yard fi eld goal to make it 38-10. The Cardinals tacked on a late touchdown to account for the fi nal tally of 38-17.

UCF 52Baylor 42JANUARY 1, 2014 GLENDALE, ARIZ.UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX STADIUM

2014 TOSTITOS FIESTA BOWL

GLENDALE, Ariz. - The most memorable season in UCF football history ended with the most memorable win in program history. In thrilling fashion, the Knights took a 52-42 triumph over No. 6 Baylor in the 2014 Tos tos Fiesta Bowl.

The No. 15 Knights (12-1) won their third-consecu ve bowl game and set a school record with their 12th victory of the season. UCF came into the season with just one victory over a ranked opponent and ended the historic eff ort with their second over a ranked squad in 2013 alone. To make the accomplishment even more impressive, both wins over ranked teams came against Top 10 opponents.

Junior quarterback Blake Bortles was named the Tos tos Fiesta Bowl Off ensive Player of the Game a er racking up 301 passing yards and three touchdowns to go along with a career-high 93 yards rushing and a touchdown.

UCF’s off ense matched Baylor’s high-powered a ack every step of the way. The Bears came into the contest leading the NCAA in scoring off ense and total off ense, but it was the Knights who racked up 52 points and 558 total yards for the victory. The points and yardage were the largest totals ever by UCF in a bowl game and against a ranked opponent.

Much was said before the game about how the Knights’ defense would stack up against Baylor’s up-tempo off ense. UCF, however, came into the game with the 13th-ranked scoring defense in the na on. The Knights forced seven Baylor punts and two turnovers, while holding the Bears 11 points and 75 yards beneath their season averages.

The Knights began to put the wild back-and-forth aff air on ice when Storm Johnson ripped off a 40-yard touchdown run to give UCF a 49-35 advantage with 10:26 remaining. Johnson set a new career high with 124 rushing yards and matched his season-high mark with three rushing touchdowns. The Knights accounted for the winning total with a 36-yard fi eld goal from Shawn Moffi with less than fi ve minutes remaining.

UCF got off to a roaring start. A er receiving the opening kickoff , the Knights churned out 76 yards in six rush a empts, capped off by an 11-yard touchdown burst by Johnson. This marked the fi rst touch-down drive of the season for the Knights that came without a single pass a empt.

A er forcing a three-and-out, the Black and Gold again marched down the fi eld, primarily on the strength of its rushing a ack. A er Bortles found Breshad Perriman streaking down the le sideline for a 34-yard gain, UCF returned to its ground control a ack with four consecu ve running plays. Johnson’s 2-yard touchdown plunge gave the Knights a 14-0 advantage just eight minutes into the contest.

Junior Rannell Hall proved once again that his nickname, “Speedy” is appropriate as he took two short, second-quarter passes to the house. Both catches were made near the line of scrimmage and featured Hall out-running the Baylor secondary, with help from some terrifi c blocking from fellow wideouts Josh Reese, J.J. Worton and Taylor Oldham.

While Bortles brought home Off ensive Player of the Game hon-ors, Terrance Plummer was named Defensive Player of the Game. The junior linebacker racked up a game-high 14 tackles, including half a sack. Sean Maag (12 tackles) and Clayton Geathers (10 tackles) both recorded double-digit stops as well.

The facility would not have been if not for the assistance of Tony and Sonja Nicholson, long me supporters of academics and athle cs at UCF, who donated in excess of $2 million for the construc on of the fi eldhouse, which was named in their honor. Centex Rooney Construc on Co. Inc. began building the $4.3 million fi eldhouse in August of 2004, and the facility was up and ready for use by the spring. “The en re UCF community, especially our student-athletes and communica ons students, con nues to benefi t from the generous support of Tony and Sonja Nicholson,” UCF President John Hi said. “The fi eldhouse (allows) our athletes to prac ce in all types of weather and should give our teams a compe ve advantage.”

Tony Nicholson owns several companies in Central Florida and has developed about 3,000 homes and 10,000 lots in the region since 1995. An entrepreneur since 1962, he moved in 1967 to Central Florida, where he has founded a magazine, a radio sta on and a company that produced concerts and videos.

Tony Nicholson is a member of the boards of directors of the UCF Athle cs Associa on Inc. and the UCF Founda on Inc. Sonja Nicholson is a past member of the Golden Knights Club Board of Directors. The Nicholsons made a $2 million commitment in 1996 to help fund the Nicholson School of Communica on, which is named in their honor.

A dona on from the couple also helped to pay the university’s entry fee into the Mid-American Conference for football in 2002. The Nicholsons also made a $100,000 commitment in 1999 toward the Wayne Densch Sports Center. In addi on, a football prac ce fi eld is named in their honor.
