Men DII College Rankings
We skipped last week because it was a bit slow, but those results do have an impact.
Combine all of those with the play-in games here's what we have:
As you may well know, GRR is on tour in the UK at the moment so the timing of some of thing stuff could be weird.
We're posting Tuesday night, which is Tuesday afternoon back in the Lands of Liberty so we're not late ... just not super-on-time.
Well we've been complaining about it most of the season ...
Whine, whine, whine ... no upsets, no surprises. Well then there was this past weekend.
Who is jumping from the 2nd tier into the top tier in Men's D2 college rugby?
As we've been saying for a while this fall, there's a fairly clear division between the stronger teams and the next tier. There's generally a series of tiers within D2 college rugby, but the gap isn't always especially large. It is this year.
Fully a dozen teams moved four or more spots this week.
The reason for that is we finally saw some teams with strong preseason rankings hit a speed bump. Oddly, while we move three teams out of the Top 10, only one of those teams lost. Virginia tied D3 team Hampden-Sydney; Georgetown beat Salisbury (but in a very close game), and then Villanova lost to Scranton.
