The 9ers are simply returning the favor, after they were the Tops’ homecoming opponent a season ago.
For the first time in a long time, WKU enters a football season on a *perceived* similar level to the 49ers, who have had a rough transition to FBS football.
Charlotte has previously had UAB and Southern Miss as homecoming opponents, falling to the Golden Eagles and beating the Blazers last year.
The Tops were the homecoming opponent for UTEP last year, MTSU in 2016 and Louisiana Tech in 2014 (a game we no longer speak of).
WKU has not announced a homecoming date for this season (but I’ll bet good money it’s Oct. 27 against FIU).
