NEWARK, Del. – With just 105 days left until the 2024 season opener against Bryant at Delaware Stadium, the University of Delaware football team earned its first preseason ranking. The Blue Hens slotted in at No. 19 in the HERO Sports Preseason FCS Poll.
The Blue & Gold wrapped up the 2023 season with a 9-4 overall record and a 6-2 mark in CAA play, advancing to the second round of the FCS Championship for the second-straight season. The nine wins were the most since the 2010 season and it is the first time UD has had consecutive eight-win campaigns since 2003-04. Delaware's offense scored at least 40 points in five games this year and surpassed 500 total yards on four occasions.
Season tickets and partial plan packages for the 2024 season are on sale now. With an additional home game in 2024, the ticket price per game for every season ticket in the stadium decreased from last season. Due to the additional home game, the total season ticket price increased slightly from 2023. Season ticket members save up to $27 per game over individual game tickets. Furthermore, season ticket prices will not increase for renewing season ticket members for the inaugural season of FBS in 2025.
Single game tickets for all home games, except UD's Parents & Family Weekend contest against Sacred Heart (Sep. 28), will go on sale on June 1. Fans can purchase tickets to Parents and Family weekend now if you purchase season tickets or within a partial plan package.
