Delaware Blue Hens vs. Liberty Flames Prediction
I’m on the Blue Hens and the points in this one. I just think we’re catching points with the better team for one, but also, Liberty’s had an extremely long layoff, having the rare back-to-back bye weeks, and that could create some rust for the Flames in this game. Give me Delaware and the points here.
