The Delaware Blue Hens will not be at full strength when they take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. We knew that the Blue Hens would be without starting running back Wes Hills, but late Friday evening The News Journal reported that starting quarterback Joe Walker will miss the Wake Forest game, and in his place will be Blake Rankin.
Blake Rankin is a senior quarterback who began his collegiate career at Rutgers, though he did not see any playing time. He played in 2 games last season, starting 1, and completed 11 of 19 passes for 111 yards.
