Charlotte vs North Texas Prediction
Both of these teams have had tough schedules up to this point, so it’s not nice to beat them up. However, the defensive numbers aren’t pretty for either side. Charlotte is 129th in total defense, 124th in pass defense, and 136th in scoring defense. North Texas is 86th in total defense, 99th in rush defense, and 123rd in scoring defense. North Texas is also explosive offensively, so it should take full advantage of Charlotte. I like points in a battle between two teams that can’t get off the field. Give me the over.
