UTSA has completed a one-year turnaround, doubling their win total from last season to earn bowl eligibility after defeating the Charlotte 49ers 33-19.
Both teams came out balling, giving the clear impression that everything was going to be left on the field by the end of this one. UTSA playing for a bowl game, and Charlotte playing as the spoiler.
The high-flying acrobatics were in effect early as both teams exchanged big-play touchdowns to start the game.
UTSA was firing on all cylinders as they made their way 90 yards downfield in just three plays. After being benched in the first quarter against Texas A&M last week, quarterback Dalton Sturm threw a 73-yard dime to Kerry Thomas to turn on the scoreboard.
