Busy Weekend in Men's DII College Rugby
About 40 games are slated for this week in Men's DII college rugby, and while we expect some to be postponed or canceled because teams are struggling to bounce back from COVID shutdowns, we expect to see some good games, too.
As many as one-third of the games from last week didn't get played, but here's hoping it's better for this week.
Some games to keep an eye on:
New On-Field Approach and Old Off-Field Unity Power CMU
Central Michigan's victory over Grand Valley State last weekend was notable because it happened, but also because of the degree of the win.
CMU won 48-14.

DIA
Ohio State comes off a really tough-to-take loss to Indiana where they had control of most of the set piece, but couldn't quite hold off a dynamic IU squad. They get to take out their frustrations on Michigan Friday night.
