Alabama, L-B Show Well in Mooseman 7s
Alabama set down something of a market this past weekend with a win at the Moosemen 7s in Murfreesboro, Tenn.
Furman Turns Heads with Tie of IU
Furman University logged a notable result Saturday in a non-conference game, as the DII program tied top DI team Indiana 41-41.
The game was a scrimmage and both teams subbed liberally, but this same meeting two years ago resulted in an 88-5 result for IU. So the improvement, following on a Furman victory over a University of South Carolina squad, is noticeable.
Pac West Latest
UC Davis tightened its grip on the Pacific Western Conference with a 68-19 defeat of Stanford Saturday.
Stanford went into the game 2-0-1 but were cast aside summarily by the defending DIAA champ Aggies. UC Davis is now 4-0.
CSULB over GCU Heads Gold Coast News
Cal State Long Beach sits clear atop the Gold Coast after an impressive 72-12 defeat of Grand Canyon University Saturday.
GCU was hit with some injuries but still fielded a big, powerful forward pack. Battling the heat of an Arizona February afternoon the Long Beach 49ers worked the ball wide as much as possible, and the tactic worked nicely.
LSU Downs Oklahoma
LSU is in an excellent position to win the Red River Conference after beating previously undefeated Oklahoma 43-12 Saturday.
The Tigers broke open a fairly close game just before halftime with a try from prop Christian Brower that, with fullback Alec Miller’s conversion, made it 22-7.
