“We’re very excited for the season to be just around the corner and we’re looking forward to the challenges this schedule will present us this year,” UCF head coach Johnny Dawkins said.

“The non-conference games, with the likes of the Alabama and Missouri contests, and the AdvoCare Invitational, will be a great test for us early on. They will really help prepare us for a very challenging American Athletic Conference schedule.”

UCF will play in the Advocare Invitational Thanksgiving weekend at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports.

“The American is a premier basketball conference and it will prove that once again this season,” Dawkins continued. “Adding Wichita State to what was already a formidable group of league opponents makes this year’s conference schedule that much more exciting as a competitor.”
