The Tribe is coming off its best offensive performance of the season against Villanova last weekend, as it piled up 518 total yards of offense. W&M’s defense also performed well and equaled its season high with six sacks.

The Blue Hens’ lone league loss came at home last weekend against Towson, while it owns CAA victories against James Madison and Elon.

Saturday’s contest will mark the 39th meeting between W&M and Delaware, as the Blue Hens hold a 22-16 advantage. However, W&M has won four of the last six meetings, including a 24-10 victory at Delaware last season.
