BYU took the opening kickoff, converting on multiple third downs to get into Knights territory. Retzlaff calmly led the drive, completing two passes and handing off the LJ Martin and Hickley Ropati.

On 3rd-and-7, the redshirt junior QB let the pass rush get by him before escaping the pocket and sprinting through the heart of the UCF defense for a 29-yard TD.

The Cougars drove 75 yards in eight plays, using 4:28 of the clock.
