Tulane vs Charlotte Prediction 

Tulane comes into this matchup on a five-game winning streak, but they did allow 37 points in last week’s win against North Texas. Charlotte has lost two games in a row and they have allowed 84 points in those two games. The 49ers will have the home-field advantage in this game, but Tulane is the way better team. I know the Charlotte offense has been decent over the last four weeks, but Tulane should win this game easily. Take the Green Wave here.
