DIA Rugby News
Playoffs and rankings and some conference titles are on the line this weekend in Men's DI (all-encompassing) college rugby, so here's a look at what's on the slate.
Check back for scores.
DIAAGeorgia, Tennessee, and Clemson all expect to win the SCRC, so that's not an issue. This is all about who can position themselves for the conference playoffs.
Another week, another slate of Pick’Em games! Congratulations to Scott Nies who has now been our top player on consecutive weeks and Kaleb Boleyn who leads our season standings.
Goff Rugby Report's picks were a little hit-and-miss last week, so let's see if the GRR brain trust can do better this time.
Representatives from National Collegiate Rugby and USA Rugby will be sitting down this weekend in Washington DC to discuss steps toward a sanctioning agreement.
This comes after USA Rugby has been telling USA Rugby-registered college teams that they can't play NCR teams, and referees have been caught up in the crossfire, too.
In the Goff Rugby Report rankings that includes some of the NCR teams, this has been a tough time. Several Liberty teams produced wins but ended up dropping down, mainly because they beat other Liberty teams in very close games. Meanwhile, a few teams outside of that competition made big strides (Baylor, Michigan State, Utah Valley) and thus just pushed everyone down a spot or two.
A few upsets and some tight games feature in this week's list of DI college games, and the top performers.
Here are our Gamebreakers from the weekend of October 16.
