What To Expect In The South Florida vs. Charlotte Game
Looking ahead to the South Florida vs. Charlotte matchup, it is hard not to view Charlotte as an underdog. The 49ers have struggled this season, losing games to Appalachian State, North Carolina, and Rice. Their sole win came in Week 3 against Monmouth, and it was a close 42-35 result.
Conversely, the Bulls have had a strong start to the year. While they lost 49-12 in Week 3 to No.3-ranked Miami, the Bulls have won their other three matchups. They defeated Boise State in Week 1, a team that reached the College Football Playoff last year. They then defeated in-state rival Florida in Week 2 in a close 18-16 matchup. Then in Week 4, the Bulls bounced back from their loss to Miami with a 63-14 win over SC State.
As a result, we believe South Florida will win this game. The sportsbooks agree with this line of thinking. FanDuel has South Florida as a huge -4500 favorite on Friday night. While only time will tell if the game is as one-sided as the betting lines suggest, fans should not expect to watch a close game here.
