In any case, the bye week is over and the Dukes are back in action this Saturday. They&#8217;ll face a Delaware Blue Hens team that is struggling lately after an early season strong performance against Villanova and an upset win over William &amp; Mary. Lately though, things haven&#8217;t been working out for the Blue Chickens. Their offense is anemic. On a good day. On a bad day it&#8217;s non-existent. Which means it&#8217;s a perfect chance for the Dukes defense to get well.<\/p>\n<p>As we always do, we&#8217;re running the prediction contest for this game.
