The Charlotte 49ers (10-19) will be looking to snap a nine-game road losing streak when they travel to take on the North Texas Mean Green (22-6).
Charlotte had a fairly average start to the season but has struggled significantly since late December. The 49ers dropped five of their first 12 contests, suffering defeats against Utah State, LIU, East Tennessee State, Davidson, and Hawaii. Their struggles continued with consecutive losses to Charleston, Tulane, Rice, FAU, Tulsa, Wichita State, and Memphis. A brief 3-5 stretch followed, with victories over South Florida, Rice, and Temple amid setbacks against Temple, UAB, Wichita State, FAU, and East Carolina. The 49ers’ recent skid has extended with back-to-back losses to Tulane and East Carolina, bringing their record to 10-19 across 29 games this season.
On the other hand, North Texas has maintained a strong record, avoiding prolonged losing streaks. The Mean Green fell to McNeese, Utah State, and High Point in their first nine outings but bounced back impressively, winning 10 of their next 11 matchups. Their victories in that span included MS Valley State, App State, Houston Christian, UAB, Rice, East Carolina, UTSA, Temple, FAU, and Wichita State, with their only loss coming against Memphis. After dropping games to UTSA and UAB, North Texas responded with another dominant stretch, securing wins over Tulane, Rice, Tulsa, South Florida, Florida Atlantic, and Wichita State. That run has propelled them to a 22-6 record across 28 contests.
