Prediction, Game Preview, and Odds for Indiana vs. Charlotte

Not only is Indiana 3-0, but it has been able to do that a few times in the last few seasons. It is absolutely crushing.

With new head coach Curt Cignetti in charge, his team is playing at a very high level. They beat UCLA 42–13 last week in the Rose Bowl.

After this, they have two 50/50 games against Maryland and at Northwestern. There is a chance for a huge start to what could be a great season.

For the first win of the season, Charlotte beat Gardner-Webb 27–26. Against North Carolina, they did not do too badly either. The next four games are all on the road in five days.

Why Charlotte Will Win

The 49ers are taking the ball away.

Several things are wrong, but they learned three things from their loss to James Madison to start the season and three more from their close win over Gardner-Webb last week.

It comes from a strong pass rush that puts a lot of pressure on the quarterback and makes a lot of stops for loss. The 49ers players, on the other hand, are throwing for a lot of big yards, but…

Why Indiana Will Win

The Charlotte skill guys have not had time to work.

The offensive line has not been able to keep the defense out of the backfield, the 49ers do not have a running game, and they rarely convert third downs.

On the other hand, Indiana is second in the country at converting third downs. Their passing game is also one of the most reliable in the country, and now the Hoosiers’ defense is coming at you.

IU has 12 sacks in the first three games and should add a lot more to their total. They are third in the country in sacks.
