George O’Leary has worked hard trying to build Central Florida into a top program and the Knights are looking to capitalize on his efforts with a profile-raising victory over Georgia in the Liberty Bowl.
Central Florida can notch its first bowl victory by beating the Bulldogs in Memphis, Tenn., on Friday. The satisfaction of knocking off a Southeastern Conference power would be a bonus.
O’Leary said Thursday that the Knights (10-3) have gone from being happy to be invited to a bowl to wanting a victory that would help put UCF in the discussion when conferences start shifting again.
Georgia (6-6) is eager to avoid its first finish below .500 since 1996 and put an upbeat ending on a season of high expectations that was derailed by a 1-4 start.
