Well, here we are. Week 2 of the college football season and this week OUR Cats take on the Charlotte 49ers.
Let me cut to the chase as quickly as I can. Charlotte is a bad football team who we will have no trouble beating before heading into our game against Vandy (PREVIEW COMING NEXT WEEK!).
Charlotte lost to Eastern Michigan 24-7 in Yspilanti (cool name for a town). Hasaan Klugh is their QB. He threw for 114 yds and ran for another 100 last week. Brad Lambert (former EMAW'er) is their head coach and Matt Wallerstedt (EMAW football player and former RP assistant) is their D-Coordinator. i'm sure they will enjoy their time in manhattan.
That's enough about their football team. Here are some interesting facts about our opponent from the Queen City:
-Clay Aiken is an alum.
-Matt Hardy of professional wrestling fame attended Charlotte, but did not graduate.
-Joe Posnanski, formerly of the KC Star, is a graduate.
PREDICTION: As I alluded to in the beginning, this will be a cakewalk as we head to take on Vanderbilt next week. Sisco will continue his early season aerial assault on the opposition as the Cats cruise to a 49-7 victory of the 49ers.
