Sant Francis vs Delaware Preview

The Delaware Fightin’ Blue Hens (7-4) host the Saint Francis Red Flash (9-2) in the FCS playoffs on Saturday.

“It’s very exciting,” Saint Francis head coach Chris Villarrial said via the Altoona Mirror. “We obviously played Delaware last year, so we know what they’re about. They’re a physical football team, and they’re a very good football program.”

“They’ve been in the top 25 [in the FCS] all year, so they’re elite, and we will have our work cut out for us,” Villarrial added. “But it’s a great opportunity for us to make the short trip down there and to perform at a high level, which is what we want to do.”

A perennial FCS power, Delaware stumbled into the playoffs with two-straight losses to Richmond and Villanova. The Blue Hens started the season strong with five-straight wins but went 2-4 overall down the final stretch of the season. Despite the skid, the Blue Hens nabbed a home playoff game.

“It was super exciting, the guys were fired up,” Blue Hens senior defensive back Kedrick Whitehead said via the UD Review. “A lot of us were together at the time, eating breakfast in the Whitney Athletic Center. It was a roller coaster of emotions to say the least.”

Now, the Blue Hens look to resemble the team that started the season hot and collect a postseason win at home. Delaware notably started the season with an FBS win over Navy, 14-7 in September. the Blue Hens beat their next four opponents convincely, and only Towson lost by fewer than three scores to the Blue Hens during that stretch.

Saint Francis sort of did the opposite of Delaware with an 0-2 start before reeling off nine-consecutive wins. The Red Flash fell shy of an FBS upset to open the season at Akron, a 30-23 loss. Richmond then dropped the Red Flash to 0-2.

After that, Saint Francis simply dominated the NEC with seven wins for the conference title. Only Stonehill gave the Red Flash a tight game, a 17-13 win on October 22.

“I think they look good,” Blue Hens head coach Ryan Carty said via Delaware Public Media. “We’re running into a team here with a top ten defense in the country, and I think a top 15 offense in the country. They’ve been winning by margins of 20’s, 30’s, a nine game win streak here to finish the season. It’s a tough out. They’re a good football team.”
