With GRR getting more involved in voting for the DIA rankings, we're keeping this ranking clear of any teams not considered for it.
So all you see here is how we voted for the official DIA rankings. First off, here is the official Top 25:
And here's how we voted at Goff Rugby Report for out Top 30:
| Goff Rugby Report Men's D1A College Rankings 2021-22 Week Oct 25 | ||
| Goff Ranking | Team | Notes |
| 1 | Cal | Most likely to reload really strongly |
| 2 | Life | No one has done enough to unseat them this fall |
| 3 | Saint Mary's | Very likely to be very strong and will start playing soon |
| 4 | Lindenwood | Was probably #1 last year, but not sure about graduation effects |
| 5 | Army | Undefeated in Rugby East, beat Navy |
| 6 | Central Washington | Not quite the automatic of the top 4 |
| 7 | BYU | Rolled through Rocky Mountain. 65-3 over Colorado |
| 8 | Indiana | Really strong in every game except one, which they won |
| 9 | Navy | No shame in close loss to Army |
| 10 | Arkansas State | Might be a little high to be honest |
| 11 | Ohio State | Two points behind Indiana, just beat Penn State 45-42 |
| 12 | Penn State | Lost to Ohio State 45-42 so ... |
| 13 | Arizona | We'll see. Have the history |
| 14 | UCLA | Beat Colorado which is the grand total of their results |
| 15 | Colorado State | Beat Colorado, beat Utah Valley, will play BYU |

| 16 | Davenport | Some good-ish fall results |
| 17 | Utah Valley | Close loss to CSU the big thing here |
| 18 | Colorado | Close win over GCU |
| 19 | Grand Canyon | Close loss to Colorado |
| 20 | Utah | This is a pick on faith |
| 21 | Cal Poly | So's this |
| 22 | Air Force | Competitive, scoring points, wins hard to come by |
| 23 | Texas A&M | Could be the best in Red River |
| 24 | Baylor | Could be the best in Red River |
| 25 | Michigan State | Improving and if they beat Michigan they might move up |
| 26 | Texas | One good win but need more |
| 27 | Santa Clara | Could be good; haven't seen them |
| 28 | UC Davis | We'll see ... |
| 29 | Michigan | Good win over Purdue |
