Fight as they did, and they did fight, the Charlotte 49ers came out on the short end in a high-scoring battle, 56-41, at Kidd Brewer Stadium, Saturday.
Charlotte is the first Mountaineer opponent to score over 19 points in Boone since 2017. App State had gone nine straight home games allowing 19 points or less.
R-So. quarterback threw for career highs with 296 yards and four touchdowns and senior running back rushed for 118 yards and scored three TDs for the 49ers.
"We responded to adversity and there's a lot of fight in this football team," said 49ers head coach .
