Central Florida Knights Logo

Primary Logo (1979-1985)

What is the Central Florida Knights Logo?

UCF football began play at the NCAA Division III level. Regardless of the class, it had no reflection on how tough a brand of college football that UCF was playing. Supporters of the athletics program for some time had likened the Knights style of play to a team that could put up a strong fight anywhere or anytime. That swagger led UCF into the era of the Fighting Knights. References to the football team, from the pocket schedule cards and annual media guides to newspaper headlines, were as the Fighting Knights. UCFs official logo took a change during this time, too, displaying a round logo that featured a Knight atop a kicking horse, with the verbiage Fighting Knights running underneath. The days of the Fighting Knights would come to a close at the end of the 1993 calendar year eventually giving way to another prominent era in UCF Athletics history when UCFs athletic teams began to refer to themselves as the Golden Knights.
