Tayven Jackson threw for one score and ran for another while the defense dominated as the UCF Knights controlled from start to finish in a 34-9 victory over North Carolina Saturday in Orlando, Fla.

Jackson was 25-of-32 for 223 yards and Nyjalik Kelly and Braeden Marshall each came up with a first-half interception for UCF (3-0).

The Knights rolled up 368 yards as Scott Frost won his 16th consecutive game as the head coach.

UNC (2-2) had allowed only nine points in its last two contests but didn't have the same kind of success against UCF as its two-game winning streak ended.

The Tar Heels also lost starting quarterback Gio Lopez in the third quarter. He was injured while running to convert on fourth-and-1 with 6:45 to go and did not return.
