Dating back to the start
of the 2002-03 campaign, UCF has won 122 games. That mark ranks
49th nationally during that span. In the last six years, head
coach Kirk Speraw’s Knights have been one of the nation’s top
programs. UCF is joined on the list by some of the premier
programs in the country, including Duke, Kansas, North Carolina
and UCLA. During the span, Speraw has guided the Knights to a
pair of trips to the NCAA Tournament.
Since joining C-USA in 2005, UCF has finished in the top-five
in the league standings in all of its campaigns in the
conference. In the last three years, UCF is one of just six
C-USA programs that have garnered first-round byes at the league
championship: Houston (3), Memphis (3), UAB (2), UCF (2), Tulane
(1) and UTEP (1).
The Knights have won 27 league contests in their three
campaigns in the conference, a mark that ranks fourth among the
12 C-USA programs during that span. UCF entered C-USA with five
other programs and has won the most conference games among the
new schools. With the move to C-USA, the Knights have faced the
biggest increase in competition, having previously competed in
the Atlantic Sun. Rice, SMU, Tulsa and UTEP joined C-USA from
the Western Athletic, and Marshall came to the conference from
the Mid-American. In 2006-07, UCF went 11-5 in C-USA play to
finish second in the conference.
