Robert Morris vs Delaware Prediction
The Robert Morris Colonials just lacked the offensive horses needed to compete with teams out of their league, and they were absolutely dreadful in their opener against West Virginia. The Delaware Blue Hens are coming off a bad performance against Bucknell where they lost as a favorite, but that should motivate them to rebound here, and we’ve made money on the Blue Hens last season. I’m not ready to give up on Delaware after just one game. This should be a win and cover for the home team. Give me Delaware.
