Homecoming almost had the perfect ending. Charlotte held the lead for the majority of the game, but it was the fourth quarter that haunted the 49ers. The foot was taken off the gas pedal, which was noted as a key in last week’s preview.
While losing by one point on the last homecoming is heartbreaking, there are encouraging signs that Charlotte football is improving. Hasaan Klugh had another impressive performance, putting up 270 total yards and a touchdown through the air and ground.
