UCF faced Louisville on Friday evening in a Week 2 matchup at FBC Mortgage Stadium in Orlando. The Knights led 14-7 after the break, but the Cardinals scored the final 13 points to win 20-14 and improve to 1-1 on the young season. UCF, meanwhile, drops to 1-1.
It’s customary to post a graphic on social media with the final score (win or lose), and that’s exactly what UCF did on Twitter following the final whistle. There was just one problem, though:

Now, we don’t blame the Knights for being disappointed with the loss, but making people pull out their magnifying glass to see the score probably won’t play well.
And as you might imagine, fans were quick to chime in with their thoughts on the graphic on social media:
Yooooooo! Why they make the score so tiny on the graphic?? ?

Don’t you dare do this, you better put that score in bold

Seriously? You can't post the score? This nullifies your *Championship.

UCF will look to course-correct on Sept. 17 as it travels to Boca Raton to face Florida Atlantic in an in-state matchup. One can imagine the reaction if the Knights lose to a team they’ve never lost to in 3 previous matchups.
