Rdu is a sort of a unofficial "mini hub" for delta and American. And that goes without saying, hub to hub flying is very hard to do.

On Reserve

The problem is it starts to overflow, although there is 12 flights, 2-11 will be oversold or filled with nonrevs. Might have a shot on 1 or 12, which is the case where I live

Thanks for the explanation.
