Overview
- Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. CT (7 p.m. ET) at Burgess-Snow Field in Jacksonville, Ala., with television coverage on ESPN.
- Books list Delaware as a slight favorite at around -2.5 to -3 with an over/under near 57.5 and a money line in the neighborhood of -144 for the Blue Hens.
- SportsLine’s model projects the Under and, in its latest best bets, shows strong confidence in home underdog Jacksonville State to win outright.
- Jacksonville State leans on FBS rushing leader Cam Cook (832 yards; 218 last week) and freshman quarterback Caden Creel, who ran for 132 yards and a score in his first start.
- Delaware’s offense features quarterback Nick Minicucci (1,379 passing yards, 8 TDs; 7 rushing TDs) and top receiver Kyre Duplessis (22 catches, 340 yards) in the Blue Hens’ first C-USA season.
