Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns vs. Delaware Blue Hens Prediction

I’m on the over here. I think this is going to be a track meet given that Delaware pretty much turned into all offense, no defense over the course of the season. I think Delaware’s going to get their points here, but I can also see Louisiana contributing to a total here and getting us up and over this number. Give me the over in this one.
