First Quarter


The opening quarter saw the UTSA taking an early lead, scoring their first touchdown and setting the tone for what would be a dominant performance. The Charlotte defense struggled to contain their opponents, allowing them to capitalize on key plays.


Second Quarter


In the second quarter, both teams tightened their defenses significantly. The Niners managed to hold off further scoring from UTSA but were unable to make any offensive breakthroughs themselves. Despite some promising drives led by quarterback Zach Wilcke, who completed passes for a total of 46 yards with a completion rate of 75 percent, Charlotte couldn't convert these into points.


Third Quarter


As play resumed after halftime, UTSA extended their lead with another touchdown in the third quarter. Charlotte's defensive line showed resilience through players like Gavin Willis and Kadin Schmitz who combined for numerous tackles; however, they couldn't prevent another score from slipping through.


Fourth Quarter


The final quarter was marked by increased intensity as both teams sought control over possession. Derrick Eley provided a spark for Charlotte with an impressive kick return touchdown covering 88 yards – one of the standout moments in this period – yet it wasn't enough to shift momentum entirely back in favor of Niners. Meanwhile, UTSA sealed their victory by adding two more touchdowns before time expired.


For fans looking forward to future matchups involving Charlotte's team spirit and potential improvements on display during this game will be tested again soon when they travel away next week facing Georgia Bulldogs at Sanford Stadium on November 22nd at approximately 12:45 PM EDT where coverage can be caught live via SEC Network channel number satellite:611.
