Here is my prediction for Bridgewater vs Delaware Valley...
In the first half, Michael Nobile the Aggie defense stifles the Eagles offense, but BC protects the ball and forces DVU's offense into too many 3rd-and-longs. A couple of short fields give the Aggies two quick trips to the end zone, including a big play from Anthony Fontana to Aaron Nelson. Delaware Valley takes a 14-3 lead into the locker room. Jay Scroggins and the Eagles come out in the second half and play inspired football, along with adjustments made by Coach Clark. DVU first adds a FG on the board to make it 17-3, but BC responds with two straight trips into the end zone (one missed EP). With BC down 17-16 in the fourth, Demetreus Jalepes breaks a big one which eventually leads to a short FG.
Bridgewater wins a tight one, 19-17.
Each team has one stat that really stands out, and IMO they will be the key to how this game is played and won. For DVU, the defense only allows 1.5 yards per rush attempt — led by Nobile (26.5 TFL, 10 sacks). For BC, Scroggins has touched the ball more than 600 times this season — and he has turned it over only once (that's 27 total TDs, one pick, and zero fumbles).
Buckle up for a great game!
