FIU Football: Game Notebook — Charlotte
On the game’s second play, FIU defensive end/linebacker Shaun Peterson Jr. was matched up against Charlotte tight end Jake Clemons.
Listed at 6-6, 260 pounds, one would imagine that Niners offensive coordinator Mark Carney felt comfortable leaving his blocking tight end on the running back-turned-linebacker in Peterson Jr.
Four seconds, one bull rush and an outside move later, the Charlotte coaches box could be heard collectively groaning as Peterson Jr. strip-sacked and recovered the fumble of Charlotte quarterback Chris Reynolds — setting the tone for FIU to decisively beat the 49ers on their homecoming day, 34-15.
