The rivalry between the Delaware Fightin' Blue Hens and the West Chester Golden Rams was a match-up between two similarly sized schools located less than 30 miles (48 km) apart. Presently, West Chester competes in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference as a member of Division II, while Delaware competes in the Colonial Athletic Association as a member of Division I FCS. These classifications allow for competition between the schools, but give inherent advantages to Delaware. Prior to 1980, Delaware competed in Division II, placing them on the same level as West Chester. As of 2015, there are no future meetings scheduled in this series.
