Delaware vs Liberty College Football Betting Preview
A pair of 2-2 Conference USA members are set to take battle in Week 10, with an underachieving Liberty team set to host an overachieving Delaware team.
The Blue Hens have been a pass-first team under quarterback Nick Minicucci, who enters this contest with 13 touchdowns to just three interceptions.
A top-30 rank in quality drives — a statistic that combines offensive continuity analytics — can be attributed to Minicucci’s connection with wideout Kyre Duplessis.
The Delaware passing game will now go head-to-head with a Liberty defense that ranks 20th in coverage, per PFF.
The Flames sit top-30 FBS team in Passing Success Rate allowed with one of the better contested catch rates nationally.
More importantly, Minicucci has struggled against Cover 1 with a 44% Success Rate and negative EPA. Liberty's 3-3-5 scheme plays a large percentage of defensive snaps in Cover 1, which will be a negative for the Blue Hens' passing game.
Delaware vs Liberty Pick, Betting Analysis
Action Network's Betting Power Ratings through Week 9 call for Liberty to be favored by just under a touchdown.
Look for the Flames' secondary to shut down Minicucci, while the Liberty offense creates enough rush explosives to pick up a win in Conference USA.
Pick: Liberty -3 or Better
