BYU vs UCF AI Prediction:
Free CFB Betting Insights for 10/26/24

The BYU Cougars enter this game with an undefeated 6-0 record, looking to continue their strong start in Big 12 play. Led by quarterback Kedon Slovis, BYU has averaged 34 points per game, combining an efficient passing game with a solid running attack. Their defense has also been stellar, allowing just 18 points per game, one of the best in the conference. BYU’s balanced offense and stout defense will be a tough challenge for a struggling UCF team. On the other side, UCF is 3-4 and coming off a three-game losing streak.

The Knights have been shuffling between quarterbacks, recently benching KJ Jefferson in favor of EJ Colson and later Jacurri Brown, but none of the quarterbacks have found consistent success. UCF’s offense has faltered, and their defense has allowed 30 points per game, which will be problematic against a high-powered BYU attack. The Knights will need to play a near-perfect game to pull off an upset against a red-hot BYU squad.

Cougars AI Preview

The BYU Cougars have been one of the most impressive teams in the Big 12 this season, entering this game with a perfect 6-0 record. Quarterback Kedon Slovis has been the engine behind BYU’s offense, throwing for over 1,500 yards and leading the team to an average of 34 points per game. The Cougars’ ability to stretch the field with their passing game, combined with a strong rushing attack led by Aidan Robbins, has made them difficult to stop. On defense, BYU has been equally dominant, allowing just 18 points per game. They’ve been particularly effective at stopping the run, which could force UCF into passing situations they’ve struggled with. BYU’s road record has been solid, and they’ll look to keep their undefeated season alive in what could be a trap game against a struggling UCF team. For BYU, continuing to play balanced football and avoiding turnovers will be key to maintaining their winning streak.

Knights AI Preview

The UCF Knights enter this matchup with a 3-4 record, desperate for a win to snap their three-game losing streak. After starting the season with some promise, the Knights’ season has taken a downward turn, partly due to inconsistency at the quarterback position. Head coach Gus Malzahn has tried multiple quarterbacks, but none have been able to provide the spark UCF needs to turn their season around. Despite these struggles, running back Johnny Richardson has been a bright spot, leading the team in rushing yards and providing some stability to the offense. Defensively, UCF has struggled, allowing 30 points per game and failing to contain opposing offenses. Against a BYU team that is undefeated and firing on all cylinders, the Knights will need to shore up their defense and find some rhythm offensively if they hope to compete. Home-field advantage in Orlando may give them a boost, but they’ll need a complete team effort to take down BYU.
