We are just outclassed in this one. Show some heart and play hard. Force wake to pass i dont care if they throw for 400 yards just dont get gashed by the run again. thats hard to watch.

We need play makers on offense. We have a bunch of really solid to good players. No one that's truly special.

ACC Network: "The Delaware defense looks a bit overwhelmed today."

TD Wake, following another fourth down conversion.

2-pointer good: 15-0 Wake

Another second half garbage time game upcoming? Third or fourth this year.

This will be as bad as WF wants it be. All that early season enthusiasm and momentum for the Hens is completely gone.

They don’t respect us at all. We need a major upgrade on defense if we are going to compete at this level. Hit the portal hard this offseason to upgrade our defense.

For sure. The Hens need 20 plus portal guys. Was surprised Carty brought in so few this year.

We need to concentrate on stopping the run. There might be a place for the 3 man DL but it's not against this team.

From the commentators:

“Delaware has the worst 4th down defense in the country”

“Delaware refuses to adjust on defense”

Carty “gotta take it one play at a time on both sides of the ball”

At least showing fight, spirit.

Now, what happens on defense?

The offense did their job. It’s time for the defense to step up.
