  09/27/20 - Dillon Gabriel, rSr/2025, Oregon, 5-11, 205 (DS#12 QB) + More +

  It wasn't the way UCF wanted to start its road contest against East Carolina, but the Knights overcame mistakes and penalties to blow out the Pirates 51-28 Saturday. Quarterback Dillon Gabriel threw four touchdown passes for the second consecutive game and at one point completed a school-record 18 consecutive passes as the offense generated more than 600 yards during back-to-back games. It was the 41st straight game that the Knights scored at least one passing touchdown and one rushing touchdown. It was another inauspicious start for No. 13 UCF (2-0, 1-0 AAC), which gave up a touchdown after a 75-yard kickoff return to Georgia Tech on the opening drive last week. During Week 2 against East Carolina (0-1, 0-1 AAC), pre-snap penalties crushed the Knights' early momentum. UCF committed false starts during its first four offensive plays of the game, a trend that proved tough to shake. The Knights set a school record with 19 penalties for a loss of 139 yards. UCF trailed in the first quarter for the second consecutive week after a 17-yard Darius Pinnix touchdown run gave East Carolina an early 7-0 lead. But it would be all Knights the rest of the way, with UCF scoring 41 consecutive points. A week after passing for a career-high 417 yards in the opener, Gabriel connected with six different receivers for 408 yards. - Orlando Sentinel

  The Pac-12 CEO Group announced today that based upon updated Pac-12 COVID-19 Medical Advisory Committee recommendations that take into account material changes to testing capabilities, the prevalence of COVID-19 and cardiac issues, along with updated state and local health official guidance, the Conference will resume its football, basketball and winter sport seasons. The football season may now commence for those teams that have the necessary state and local health approvals on November 6, men's and women's basketball on November 25 consistent with the NCAA's official start date for these sports, and other winter sports consistent with the NCAA season dates for those sports. - Pac-12 Football

  Less than 48 hours after proclaiming his team as the best in Florida, UCF quarterback Dillon Gabriel did what any pure passer worth his eye black would do. He held firm in the proverbial pocket. Gabriel stood by his proclamation during a brief session with reporters Monday, two days after his 417-yard, four-touchdown performance in the Knights' 49-21 romp of Georgia Tech in Atlanta. The week before, the Yellow Jackets defeated FSU, 16-13. "I said what I said, and I was confident in it," said Gabriel, whose performance thrust him into early Heisman chatter. "It's up for you guys to feel whatever you guys want to feel. Everyone has the right to their opinion, but I still feel we're the best team in Florida, and that's all I've got to say." To this point, only four of the state's seven Division I-A programs have played a game. Florida, Florida Atlantic and Florida International are slated to open their seasons this weekend. Following UCF's win Saturday, it moved up one spot - to No. 13 - in the latest Associated Press rankings, behind No. 12 Miami (2-0) and the fifth-ranked Gators. - Tampa Tribune

Gabriel completed 27 of 41 passes for a career-high 417 yards and four touchdowns, becoming the fifth player in program history to throw for more than 400 yards with four TDs in a game. Gabriel earned the second Walter Camp of his young career after first earning the honor as a freshman last season. - American Athletic Conference Football

Gabriel also rushed for 30 yards and led UCF to 660 yards of total offense. Notes: Dillon Gabriel earns Walter Camp National Player of Week honors for the second time (Sept. 15, 2019) and is the fifth UCF player to win the award since 2004. - The Walter Camp Football Foundation

  09/19/20 - Dillon Gabriel, rSr/2025, Oregon, 5-11, 205 (DS#12 QB) + More +

  Dillon Gabriel made sure Central Florida didn't let another game slip away on the road. The sophomore threw for a career-best 417 yards and four touchdowns, leading the No. 14 Knights to a 49-21 victory over Georgia Tech in their season opener Saturday. It was a rewarding performance for UCF, coming off the uncertainty of the pandemic-affected summer and a bit of a disappointing season by its standards in 2019. The Knights lost three games - all on the road - by a total of seven points.

After falling behind 28-7, Georgia Tech closed within a touchdown early in the fourth quarter. But Gabriel led a dominating performance the rest of the way, finishing 27 of 41 to eclipse his previous career high of 365 yards in a game last season at East Carolina. "We had so many guys making plays all over the field," Gabriel said. "When that happens, you see what we can do." UCF bounced back after giving up a long return on the opening kickoff and falling behind less than a minute into the game. Tre Nixon and Marlon Williams each hauled in a pair of TD passes. Showing off its running back depth, UCF got touchdowns on the ground from Greg McCrae, Otis Anderson and Bentavious Thompson. Gabriel, a left-hander from Hawaii who claimed the starting job early in his freshman year, is the one who makes the fast-paced offense go. - Central Florida Football

  09/12/20 - Deommodore Lenoir, Sr/2021, Oregon, 5-10, 199 (DS#29 CB) + More +

  In announcing his decision to return for his senior season in January, Lenoir said he wanted to improve on "maturity, growing as a leader and off coverage," which was a reference to the 81-yard touchdown he gave up on third-and-16 in Oregon's loss to Arizona State last season. Lenoir becomes the second Oregon player to opt out of the 2020-21 college football season and declare for the draft in as many days, joining offensive lineman Penei Sewell. His departure leaves Oregon with 84 scholarship players and backup corners Mykael Wright and DJ James, who were expected to take over for Lenoir and Thomas Graham Jr. after this season, will vie for the starting job. - The Oregonian

  09/07/20 - *Penei Sewell, Jr/2021, Oregon, 6-5, 331 (DS#1 OT) + More +

  The best offensive lineman in college football is moving on to the NFL without playing his junior season. Penei Sewell, Oregon's starting left tackle and the reigning Outland Trophy winner, announced he is opting out of the 2020-21 season to prepare to for the 2021 NFL Draft. Sewell, a unanimous All-American last season, is widely projected as a top five pick in next year's draft. The 6-foot-6, 330-pound Sewell did not allow a sack last season, had eight games without allowing a pressure, hit or hurry and allowed just seven quarterback pressures in 466 pass-blocking snaps en route to becoming the third unanimous All-American in Oregon program history. He was the first sophomore offensive lineman and first Duck to ever win the Outland Trophy. - Oregon Live

  09/05/20 - Bo Nix, rSr/2024, Oregon, 6-2, 214 (DS#6 QB) + More +

  The 2020 Bo Nix looks like a "whole different person." Auburn wide receiver Anthony Schwartz has seen a noticeable change in the way Nix holds himself from his freshman to sophomore year. Nix has always looked composed, Schwartz said. In his first college game ever, he was able to lead the team on a last-minute drive that led to a comeback win over Oregon. His composure led to people across the nation remarking on how cool and collected he was. But this year, Schwartz said Nix looks confident, comfortable and relaxed on top of cool and collected. The confidence, which has grown through the 2019 season and the 2020 offseason, is evident at practice as Nix's voice carries itself through drills and scrimmages, shouting both directions and playful trash talk. "He's talking way more," Schwartz said. "He's been going back and forth with the defense, just talking talking. But it's just all fun for him."

Nix isn't just talking to the defense for fun, he's also taking command of the entire team. Wide receiver Eli Stove said Nix has always been vocal, but now he's also a leader. He's speaking up for both the offense and the defense, saying "everything he's got to say." The defense has taken note. Linebacker K.J. Britt, who is the "quarterback" for the opposite side of the ball and one of the leaders on the defense, sees Nix play with the confidence born from "knowing that he's the quarterback here at Auburn University." Britt can see that Nix has settled into his offense and is taking pride in it. He's out there helping coach his teammates. Nix is able to be that type of leader, one who coaches teammates and directs the players around him, because he has gained a new level of experience and knowledge of the game. - Birmingham News

  08/30/20 - Dillon Gabriel, rSr/2025, Oregon, 5-11, 205 (DS#12 QB) + More +

  Dillon Gabriel burst onto the college football scene last season, setting UCF records for a true freshman quarterback. The southpaw went from a virtual unknown to a household name after earning the starting job during the second game of the 2019 season. As Gabriel prepares for his second season, there's plenty of room for improvement. "Year 1 to Year 2 for a quarterback, there's a ton of growth," UCF coach Josh Heupel said Thursday. "There is every year, but there's a ton of growth there that can happen." Gabriel set the school's single-season record for passing yards with 3,653 while throwing 29 touchdown passes and seven interceptions. He led the Knights to a 10-3 mark. Gabriel earned Offensive Most Valuable Player of the Gasparilla Bowl after passing for 260 yards and earning three touchdowns during the Knights' 48-25 win over Marshall.

"He had a really good grasp of what we're doing, but just complete knowledge and control over what's going on," Heupel said. "His ability to check at the line of scrimmage when the play's not right, to understand those checks and to get us into a good play and to change protections. It changes what you're able to do offensively when your quarterback has that kind of command because he can get you out of the bad situations. "Year 1 as a play caller, you're trying to protect him a little bit. We're ultimately still really aggressive but you want to make sure you put him in advantageous situations and try to allow him to feel comfortable." - Orlando Sentinel
