Champions play at UCF.
Knights athletic teams have earned landmark victories on state and national stages — from back-to-back American Athletic Conference titles to BCS bowl wins. But some of our student-athletes’ most important triumphs have been in the classroom, where they’ve achieved an average GPA of 3.0 or higher for 27 consecutive semesters. Though attendance is currently limited, students have access to free admission to sporting events on campus. Being a part of the action is an important part of the UCF experience — because we’re never as strong alone as we are together.

UCF Fight Song
Game Day Traditions
Innovative. Hip. Fun. Nontraditional. Knight Nation is quickly becoming one of the largest fan bases in college sports. Over the last several football seasons, we’ve won six conference championships, three Bowl Championship Series/New Year’s Six titles and were declared national champions following our perfect 13-0 football season in 2017.
Along the way, all that success has led to the establishment of more than a few UCF traditions, even if a number remain relatively new. Here’s a closer look at what Knights’ fans have come to know and love about game day:
Knight Walk
Line up along IOA Plaza and welcome the team, as they head from the bus to the locker room.
March to Victory
Join Pegasus, Knugget, Knightro, the Marching Knights and the UCF spirit teams near Knights Plaza for the fan march to the stadium.
Knight Lights
Turn on your cell phone flashlights during kickoff in the Bounce House.
#UCFansWear
Coordinate your colors with fellow Knights — from anthracite (gray) and gold to black and white.
Zombie Nation
Bounce when you hear Zombie Nation’s “Kernkraft 400” and cheer on your Knights.
Alma Mater
Sing the UCF alma mater with the team after each home game, win or lose.
