More than 6,350 fans filled Martin Stadium and suffered through 94 degree evening temperatures, intermittent downpours and a steamy light fog that settled over the field to witness the Knights win their first game ever in Valdosta. The Knights' two previous trips to Valdosta resulted in a 13-7 loss to the Blazers in 1982- and a 48-19 thrashing in 1988: · This year the UCF defense held Valdosta State to a modest 196 total yards on offense and recorded UCFs third shutout under Coach Gene McDowell. "Anytime you get a shutout, it's special," McDowell said. "Once our defense got them zeroed in, and they had to throw the ball, they were in trouble."
