Making the Grade: Knights Crushed by #6 Texas Tech, 48-9

The UCF Knights' recent 48-9 loss to the #6 Texas Tech Red Raiders underscores the growing influence of NIL funding in college sports. This defeat not only reflects the Knights' struggles on the field but also highlights the broader issue of financial disparities among programs. In related highlights, Cameron Dickey's 12-yard touchdown further extended Texas Tech's lead, showcasing their offensive strength. As the Knights aim to improve, they must address the challenges posed by teams with substantial NIL resources, as evidenced by their performance against a top-ranked opponent.
