Middle Tennessee vs Delaware Prediction

Now we have the Middle Tennessee vs Delaware Prediction for both teams.

The Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders will head to Delaware in what shapes up to be a fascinating Week 9 matchup, as both teams try to gain some momentum heading into the second half of the season. For Middle Tennessee, the year has been marked by inconsistency and struggles on both sides of the ball. The Blue Raiders have managed only 17 points per game — ranking near the bottom nationally — and continue to be hampered by a lack of production in the rushing game, averaging just 82.8 yards per contest. Their offensive inefficiency has placed extra strain on a defense that has also had its share of problems, allowing nearly 30 points per outing. While the Blue Raiders have shown flashes of improvement — such as their close losses against Missouri State and Kennesaw State — they’ve been unable to turn those moments into sustained success. Their recent 2-13 record on the road is a glaring weakness, and given their 1-8 mark against the spread in their last nine games, it’s hard to trust them in any road environment right now.

Delaware, on the other hand, enters this game as a program trying to prove it belongs in the higher tiers of FBS competition. The Blue Hens’ offense has shown legitimate promise, averaging 28.8 points per game and ranking inside the top 10 nationally in passing yards at over 300 per contest. Quarterback play has been a major strength for Delaware, as their ability to stretch the field vertically keeps defenses guessing and opens up opportunities in the intermediate passing game. Their performance at home has also been encouraging — the Blue Hens are 4-1 against the spread in their last five home games — and their defense, though not dominant, has been opportunistic enough to complement their offensive firepower. Delaware’s biggest weakness remains consistency against the spread overall, with a 4-14 mark in their last 18 games, but they’ve found ways to respond well on their home turf, especially against visiting underdogs that struggle offensively like Middle Tennessee.

Looking at both sides statistically, Delaware’s balance on offense and home-field advantage give them a clear edge. Middle Tennessee’s defense has allowed opponents to pass for over 226 yards per game, which could spell trouble against a Delaware team that loves to attack through the air. Additionally, MTSU’s inability to sustain drives and score in the second half — ranking near the bottom nationally in third- and fourth-quarter production — makes it difficult to envision them keeping up on the road. Delaware’s offense should find enough rhythm to pull away in the second half, and the Blue Hens’ defense, while not elite, should be capable of containing a Middle Tennessee team that struggles to find explosive plays.
