Good Start in ARC for Cardinals, Bonnies
The newly-minted ARC conference kicked off this weekend with St. Bonaventure and Wheeling logging impressive wins.
This conference was created by five NCR teams that used to be in the Rugby East, plus Wheeling out of Big Rivers. This conference will (as we understand) get five playoff spots into NCR's D1 postseason, so it is expected to be competitive.
Already Big Games in D1 Action
Over 60 D1-level college teams are playing this weekend.
Some of these games are hugely important conference matchups—Texas A&M at Baylor on Friday evening, Bowling Green vs Cincinnati, Iowa at Iowa State (!). Some are still quote-unquote warmups.
