Lindenwood defeated Mount St. Mary's in an entertaining and competitive D1A matchup in Knoxville, Tenn.
The Mount was very tenacious and tactically smart in keeping close to Lindenwood, and well into the second half it was deadlocked 24-24.
What is THE game of the week?
While we don't have a ton of changes at the top of the D1A rankings, we do have a change at #1.
Cal moves up to #1 after a shutout win over Arizona. Remember, Arizona held Saint Mary's to a 12-10 Gael victory, and we're thinking that if you factor that in with a 24-22 Life win over Saint Mary's, and the fact that Life also beat Navy, we kind of have to make the move.
Cal shut out Arizona 46-0 Saturday in Berkeley, setting down an early-season market for the Bears.
It was a rainy day at Witter Rugby Field, which wasn't the kind of weather either team preferred, but that's what they got.
We talked a little with our video about lopsided scores, and yes the gap between the very strongest teams on the West Coast and the rest is a concern.
