It's finally here: Richmond @ Delaware

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

Giddy up.

[Schism55]

....Said noone, ever

[KPSUL]

What's here ? JMU @ Elon is shaping up to be the game of the year in the CAA; that didn't seem possible 6 weeks ago.

[bostonspider]

I think that this is the Rocco Bowl...

[DTSpider]

I prefer to call it the Vision Bowl

[caribbeanhen]

Well I guess it's safe to say Rocco and staff will know the opponent well and also save too say the spiders have had this game circled on the calendar

[Gangtackle11]

The winner here has a leg up in the playoff race. Should be a great matchup of Lauletta offense vs. Delaware Defense.

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

Rocco and staff knows their former players and our players know their former coaches and their schemes.

I think our players are smarter than the Delaware staff, so this is an advantage for us.

[spdram]

Good news for Spiders: we have Lauletta, young D is playing better, did I mention we have Lauletta?
Bad news for Spiders: running game still not clicking,

Guys want this one badly, they will be motivated -- Danny stepped on a lot of toes when he left, players were not pleased.

[Henny]

Too damn bad! Richmond wont be any more motivated to win this game that UD and it doesn't hurt that the game is in the TUB this year. I don't expect the UD defense to extend its six quarter scoreless streak but expect a low scoring affair. Also don't expect to get all the gifts you got from Towson this week. We've replaced our mistake prone QB.

[Dukie95]

Yet again, the conference made the right choice in selecting this one as the game of the week on CollegeSportsLive. This will be a good one.

even if you had a running game it wouldn't matter against our defense you're just not gonna run the ball against
Delaware

The concern is Louletta having time to sit back there and pick us apart, Colby Reeder should be turned loose

[Henny]

Carib

The big change to the D this week was that Colby now stays in on 3rd and longs. He's down and rushing the QB. That helped this week!

Henny-I noticed this too in the 1st QTR SAT and texted you know who. I bet Colbys dad was ecstatic. He has shown he not only has the speed to drop in coverage but he already diagnoses plays well. He's always around the ball.

[Henny]

Ya John, I'm wondering if Cosh got a phone call this week - LOL!

[MacThor]

I bet Danny already knows who's getting the game ball if Delaware pulls off this win...

[caribbeanhen]

Colbys got a soft hands for a LB,

I would be so tempted to use him on our struggling offense somehow someway even if it was just for a play

Reeder coming in for the senior Jackson says a lot about his talent because Anthony Jackson is no slouch

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

Ya John, I'm wondering if Cosh got a phone call this week - LOL!

As if Cosh actually has anything to do with calling plays on that defense...

[DirtyDukes]

I'm so freaking jacked for this game and JMU isn't even playing in it.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO I WANT TO WIN!

[HENJOHN]

DDukes, who do you Recruit more against head to head?

[DirtyDukes]

ODU?

JK. Probably Richmond. I mean obviously I'm not rootin fer Spatters here. I rooted for Spatters once against Soft Houston and they lost. Wait, maybe I should root fer Spatters.

Don't think anyone has posted this. Highlights (Richmond-centric, obviously) of the 5OT game from 10 years ago. Richmond AD just posted this a couple day ago.

[HensRock]

WOW! What a game!

[caribbeanhen]

WOW! What a game!

I thoroughly enjoyed it hensrock

Delaware fans have waited a long time for a big win

[GoBlueHens83]

Most exciting game at The Tub in years.

[katss07]

Fun game! Congrats to the Hens on their big win! Maybe a preview of what is to come in a few years... the FCS is more fun when UD is good.

[HENJOHN]

Best team and best coached team won. Enjoyed the game and atmosphere. Three in a row and a fourth right around the corner.

[ngineer]

Well, well. The Hens are back! Congrats. FCS doesn't seem the same when you guys are not in the 'discussion'.

[UNIFanSince1983]

Is Delaware back?

[BlueHenSinfonian]

Is Delaware back?

We're certainly on the right track. Rocco is the real deal. There are still questions about the QB and the O-Line, but compared to Brock who seemed to think we'd need multiple years to rebuild to be competitive, Rocco is finding ways to win right now with what we have.

[HENJOHN]

We are 5-2 with our only losses to defending National Champs JMU by 10 and VA Tech, the 12th ranked FBS team in a competitive contest. We only allowed JMU one Offensive TD. We are BACK.

[Winston]

Rocco is an outstanding coach. He is an intellect, who studies the game. He is also a born again Christian.

BTW, Delaware is now a national contender.

Welcome back, can't wait for 2018 and 2019 and thanks for not making me look like an idiot for having you in my poll for most of the year. Don't know if you know this but you are our Homecoming game next year.

Maybe we get that match up a year early POD

[DirtyDukes]

I'm real high on the blue hens I hope NDSU gets them on their side of the bracket

[PantherRob82]

Is Delaware back?

It appears so from the users crawling out of the woodwork. :D

Superman was at the game yesterday dressed as Jamie Jarmon

We’ll see you and Richmond in a little bit.

BTW, Delaware is now a national contender.

Contender for what?

[RootinFerDukes]

Contender for what?

For a playoff spot. Hens fans are jumping the gun a bit. They’re a likely playoff team but this national contender talk is a bit premature. Many question marks on offense.

[HENJOHN]

I don't think many of us UD sees us as National contender, we are just happy to be relevant again for now. Playoffs would be great and better things to come.

[Dukie95]

Truthfully, UD should now be the #2 CAA team in the polls. That would be a large, unnatural leap for the voters to take, but it's the right thing to do.

[caribbeanhen]

All that's true and HenJohn but Who was it that told us we were getting ready to go on a winning streak ?

You did

[93henfan]

Oh hi. Was just checking to see if this website still exists. It does!

Yay!!

[grizband]

Apparently, so does Delaware football. xthumbsupx Welcome back!!

[93henfan]

Is Delaware back?

Not if we lose to motherf***ing Towson.

We're back if we finish 3-1 in our remaining regular season games. We're not if we finish 2-2.

[93henfan]
