The Bulls soon passed for an 82-yard touchdown and a successful two-point conversion to tie the game 42-42 and quiet the crowd.
Then, in the fourth quarter, Mike Hughes escaped every Bull as he ran back a massive 95-yard kickoff for a touchdown. All 47,000 fans took to their feet and the Cardiac Knights made Spectrum Stadium like the Bounce House once again. Three touchdowns in 53 seconds.
Quinton Flowers led the Knights defense to midfield and the UCF defense forced a fumble, sealing the game.
