Charlotte football just couldn’t keep up. The 49ers battled early in their 52-14 loss to Indiana on Saturday afternoon in Bloomington. Their running backs were pounding the rock against the Hoosiers, whose defense ranks among the top half of teams in the Big Ten Conference.

In a 52-14 win over Charlotte, Indiana quarterback Kurtis Rourke completed 16 of 20 passes for 258 yards, two total touchdowns and no turnovers – without taking a snap in the fourth quarter. Here's the full transcript and video of Rourke's press conference following the win.

The Hoosiers improved to 4-0 for the first time since 2020 with a 52-14 win over Charlotte. The offense continued to look unstoppable as the team set a program record for most points scored in a four-game stretch. It was also the first time since 2019 the offense had more than 400 yards of total offense in four straight games.
