UNC Wilmington vs Delaware Prediction
Delaware has to like its chances at home, where seven of its 11 wins this season have come, but I’m still laying the points with UNC Wilmington. Delaware is riding a four-game losing streak and the defense hasn’t been great. Delaware is allowing an average of 82 points in its last four games, which is a lot more than its season average. UNC Wilmington is arguably the team to beat in the CAA, and an offense that’s top-100 in scoring and offensive field goal percentage should be excited to see a struggling Delaware defense. UNC Wilmington is 14-7 ATS on the season. I’ll lay the reasonable chalk with UNC Wilmington on the road.
