James Madison vs Charlotte Stats
James Madison Dukes
The James Madison University football team has experienced significant changes in its roster due to transfers and graduation, resulting in new players stepping into key positions. Former Washington starter Dylan Morris is now the quarterback, while the wide receiver position is seeing turnover with many new faces. The team may rely more on the running game this season, especially with the addition of RBs George Pettaway and Ayo Adeyi. Head coach Chesney favors a run-first approach, which proved successful in his previous coaching tenure. The team's defense excels in stopping the run but has room for improvement in pass defense, with notable additions to the roster in edge rusher Lloyd Summerall and LB Raymond Scott. Concerns linger in the secondary, making a strong pass rush crucial. Despite coaching changes, James Madison had a successful season with an unbeaten record on the road. Currently ranked 23rd in offense and 20th in defense, the team shows promise for the upcoming season with a power ranking of 11.
Charlotte 49ers Analysis
Charlotte 49ers are gearing up for the upcoming season with a mix of new incoming players and key returners. The offense, led by quarterback Max Brown and receiver Jairus Mac, looks to improve upon a lackluster performance from last season. Running back Terron Kellman and transfer Cartevious Norton will share duties in the backfield. The defense, while showing potential, struggled against the run last season. If the new players on offense cannot spark a turnaround, the 49ers may continue to struggle to put points on the board. With a power ranking of 121, the team will need to address their offensive shortcomings to improve on their record from last season.
James Madison and Charlotte Prepare for Season Debut with Roster Changes and High Expectations
Both James Madison and Charlotte make their season debut with notable roster changes, especially for James Madison following the departure of head coach Curt Cignetti to Indiana, along with key players. Despite winning 11 games last season, James Madison faces uncertainties with their revamped lineup. Conversely, Charlotte struggled offensively, resulting in only three wins last season. The 49ers also faced challenges at home, securing only one win on their field. Despite their shortcomings, Charlotte's head coach Biff Poggi's return, coupled with new additions through the transfer portal, adds optimism for the team. The upcoming match between these teams is anticipated to be closely contested, with Charlotte potentially covering the +8.5 point spread against James Madison.
