Another dismal regular season came to an end Saturday for the Charlotte 49ers, who have an important offseason ahead under head coach Tim Albin.

Jake Retzlaff ran for two short scores, setting a Tulane single-season record for touchdowns rushing by a quarterback, and the Green Wave clinched a tie for first place in the American Conference with a 27-0 victory over struggling Charlotte on Saturday night.

Facing hapless Charlotte, Tulane scored touchdowns on its first two possessions before getting sloppy the rest of the way, but it did not matter because the 49ers never managed more than two first downs on any drive as the Green Wave paved its way to the American Conference championship game with a shutout.

The Bulldogs are paying the 49ers $1.9 million for the non-conference matchup, the largest single-game payout in 49ers’ history, due to Charlotte by January 30, 2026. Kickoff is set for 12:45 p.m. on Saturday on the SEC Network, marking Charlotte’s sixth game on linear television this season.

The Georgia Bulldogs cruised to a dominant 35-3 victory over the Charlotte 49ers. Here are three major takeaways from the game.

Charlotte's name pays homage to a key year in the school's history. In 1949, UNC-Charlotte was nearly closed by the state legislature. Strong efforts locally kept the institution open, and so when they changed their name from Owls in 1961, they went for 49ers to pay homage to that effort.

The Tulane Green Wave find themselves in a fairly clear position: Win and you're in the American Conference's title game.
