Previous season

They finished the 2017 season 3–9, 2–6 in Sun Belt play to finish in a tie for 10th place. The season marked the Chanticleers' first year in the Sun Belt and the FBS, and their second of a two year transition period. They would not become bowl-eligible until the 2018 season. Offensive coordinator Jamey Chadwell served as the interim head coach of the Chanticleers this season due to Joe Moglia taking a medical leave.
