Delaware is lighting the scoreboard up and playing its best hoop of the year by far. Four straight wins and 79+ points scored in all of them including exploiting a very stout Towson D Mon night. UNCW will run them like hell tonite I figure with Hens only going about 6 deep. Hens are firing threes like crazy and that was their strength in regular season. Hens are over in 8 of their last 10. UNCW can hang 85 on anybody in this conference and should get a ton of second-chance points, After playing some games closer than they would like I don't see them letting up vs a bad defensive team here.

Props to 12th-seeded Delaware for taking down top seed Towson on Monday in the Blue Hens' fourth CAA tournament game in as many days. Here is doubting they can go five-in-five. UNCW rolled over them by 10 and 30 points in the regular season, the latter just 11 days ago. The Seahawks are bettor-friendly, having gone 19-10-1 against the spread in contrast to 15-18 for Delaware. The Blue Hens' starters put in more than 30 minutes apiece Monday. The Seahawks play at a high speed, having averaged a fraction under 80 ppg. Their style should exploit a valiant but tired underdog.
