Third-year head coach Josh Heupel met with media after practice on Wednesday.
“We are excited to be here in the city of Orlando and excited to be back here and thankful for the Florida Citrus committee,” Heupel said. “They put on a great event, and we have known that for a long time. Obviously, it culminates with a big football game. Want our players to enjoy the city this week. When they’re in the football meetings and in practice, be engaged. That’ll be important for us to go out and play a really good Iowa football team.
“Also want to thank UCF and their administration and coaching staff for allowing us to use their facility. It’s a first-class operation and a bunch of great people that have helped us along the way.”
