Florida Legislature Considering ‘National Champs' License Plate For UCF After Undefeated Season

What to Know

  • Last week, Gov. Rick Scott signed a proclamation declaring UCF national champions.

Fans of UCF's football team may soon have a Florida license plate celebrating its teams undefeated season and claim as national champions.

A bill in the state's House of Representatives (HB 1359) has added a UCF National Champions plate as one of nine specialty plates being considered. If approved by the Legislature, the plate would cost $25.

One of the other plates being considered is for Auburn University, who UCF defeated 34-27 in the Peach Bowl on Jan. 1.

The Knights (13-0) were the only team to finish undefeated in the Football Bowl Subdivision and were sixth in the final Associated Press rankings, receiving four first-place votes.
