But Milton's 83 yards rushing, coupled with five first half sacks, and eight tackles for loss by the Knights defense, gave UCF a 13–6 halftime lead. McKenzie Milton's passing numbers were thus far unimpressive, finishing the first half only 3-of-17 for 30 yards. Two plays later, McKenzie Milton scored the game's first touchdown, on an 18-yard quarterback run. Tightroping down the sidelines, Neal returned the ball 36 yards to the Auburn 21 yard line. But the ball was punched out of his hands and bounced into the hands of Knights defender Tre Neal. Four play later, Stidham near midfield, ran up the middle for a 6-yard gain. Milton, with two long quarterback runs, put the Knights in field goal range, and the score was tied 3–3 partway through the second quarter. Daniel Carlson missed a 53-yard field goal attempt, and the score remained 3–0. Jarrett Stidham then led Auburn on a 14-play, 45-yard drive to the UCF 36 line. A mishandled snap was fumbled by quarterback McKenzie Milton and recovered by Auburn, which led to a Tigers field goal and a 3–0 lead. The high-powered UCF offense got off to a shaky start, but superb defensive play kept the Knights in the game during the first half.
