Our Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders vs Delaware Blue Hens Prediction
Delaware’s defense hasn’t been anything special this season, but it may not have to do more than show up to get a win over Middle Tennessee. The Blue Raiders struggle to move the ball on offense whether their running or passing. Nick Minicicci has been lighting opponents for the Blue Hens, averaging 300 yards per game through six contests. Of course, when you focus on the passing game like they do, the run game suffers. But against the Blue Raiders, it shouldn’t matter. The one-dimensional Blue Hens will cruise to a win in this game.
