Nearly two years have passed since UCF claimed the 2017 national championship with a 34-27 Peach Bowl win over Auburn, and the Knights have no intention of letting anyone forget about it.
Especially the 2017 College Football Playoff champion, Alabama.
The Crimson Tide (10-2, 6-2 SEC) are in Orlando this week as they prepare for their Citrus Bowl matchup against Michigan (9-3, 6-3 Big Ten). Alabama released a statement that, due to weather, the team would move its Saturday practice to Nicholson Fieldhouse: The Knights' indoor practice facility.

The Knights, sensing an opportunity to poke at Alabama, took advantage of the fortuitous situation, not-so-subtly subtweeting the Crimson Tide.

This isn't the only time these teams have taken shots at each other, but the fact that UCF is still finding ways to bring it up is just one of many reasons college football is so great.
