Georgia State vs Charlotte Game Preview

Why Charlotte Will Win

So what’s going right in this tough 0-3 start?

The passing game hasn’t been bad.

Xavier Williams might not be Chris Reynolds – the injured starter – when it comes to his accuracy, but he’s been able to put up enough yards to at least keep things moving.

What’s Going To Happen

Georgia State will finally get to get this 2022 season going.

Charlotte has good parts, but it hasn’t been able to get them all going yet offensively. The defense hasn’t been remotely close so far, and the Panther attack will take advantage with a balanced day including the first 200-yard passing day of the season.
