The teams met at Beaver Stadium, the home of Penn State, in September with UCF winning the game 34-31.
Croke Park will have a capacity of 69,000 for the game and the GAA are confident that they will have a full house for the contest with prices starting at €20.
“A lot will depend on the numbers we attract from the U.S., particularly from Penn State,” GAA director general Paraic Duffy told TheScore.ie recently. “Florida won’t bring the same numbers. But I think the initial signs are very good.
UCF are flying high this year and look set to clinch at least a share of the American title which would qualify the Knights for their first-ever BCS Bowl Game in January.
