On a night in the East division where stakes were high and there wasn’t room for error, Charlotte just never found the path to getting out of their own way.
Plagued by untimely penalties and the inability to stop the bleeding, the FAU Owls took Charlotte’s will to compete and coasted to victory, 38-9 at Jerry Richardson Stadium.
Both programs failed to muster anything on their first possession, Charlotte missing a 44-yard field goal before the Owls fumbled the ball in the red zone on the ensuing drive.
TRASH CAN TIME!
