Delaware–William & Mary football rivalry
The Delaware–William & Mary football rivalry between the Delaware Fightin' Blue Hens and the William & Mary Tribe is a matchup between two public universities, the University of Delaware (UD) and the College of William & Mary (W&M), that are also members of both the Colonial Athletic Association and its legally separate football arm of CAA Football. Both schools have academic reputations that have labeled them as Public Ivies. Both schools are also colonial colleges, having been founded before the United States became independent in 1776; W&M was founded in 1693 and UD's predecessor school was founded in 1743.
