The UCF Knights have two, possibly all three, of their quarterbacks available for Saturday's matchup against Cincinnati, according to the game-day After being listed as questionable in every report this week leading up to Saturday, junior Tayven Jackson was designated available Saturday morning.
He exited last weekend's game against Kansas holding his left hand against his rib. Junior Jacurri Brown, meanwhile, is listed as a game-time decision.

As for the Bearcats, their only game-time decision was cornerback Ormanie Arnold, who was designated as questionable throughout the week. The reserve defensive back has made four tackles and defended one pass this season. Cincinnati also had a pair of starters designated as probable to begin the week before getting upgraded to available on Friday in running back Evan Pryor and center Gavin Gerhardt.UCF Defensive Tackle Ruled Out For Season UCF defensive tackle Horace Lockett is out for the rest of the season, coach Scott Frost said Saturday after the Knights' loss to Kansas.
