After opening the season with losses to two AP Top 25 opponents, head coach Lane Kiffin and the Owls (2-2) go into their C-USA opener against the Charlotte 49ers (2-2) on a two-game winning streak.

The 49ers team ended the Owls’ hopes for a bowl game in the 2018 season finale, beating FAU 27-24 in Boca Raton. Now, the new 49ers head coach Will Healy, is looking to get his first conference win as a head coach in C-USA.
