Every year I cover the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. These games have been some of the most watched in the Bowl Series. Many close games and big upsets have taken place.
This year it was a match-up between the SEC and the AAC conferences. The University of Central Florida achieved perfection, upsetting Auburn for a 13-0 season.
Auburn fought hard but had three turnovers, while UCF only had 1. This was the difference that helped UCF defeat Auburn 34-27.
The game was close throughout the four quarters. They traded scores back and forth, keeping it close.
UCF is Nation’s Second-Largest University. The University of Central Florida has become the second-largest university in the nation in student enrollment, surpassing Ohio State.
The hard part about covering football is the tension about shooting too tight so that you don’t see the competition.
I couldn’t switch cameras fast enough on one touchdown, so my lens was too tight to show the playing crossing the end zone.
One thing I did enjoy capturing with the UCF players was the joy they had for the game.
These are just some of the action shots I captured from the game.
