GRR: College Men
The Varsity Cup has finalized its bracket for the spring invitational knockout season.
This year, 16 teams are participating, meaning no byes for anyone.
Three-time defending champion BYU faces Arizona State in the opening round. Three-time runner-up Cal plays Texas.
The tiny yet massive Mid-South kicks off this weekend as Goff Rugby Report #5 Lindenwood faces #4 Life University in Marietta, Ga.
Life is coming off a series of big blowouts of good programs such as South Carolina, Clemson, and Air Force. But the Running Eagles coaching staff will likely be more interested in how the team handled a much closer clash with Navy.
The Big Game of the week was, of course, BYU v St. Mary's, and it didn't disappoint, with BYU holding on for a 30-29 victory.
St. Mary's, by virtue of being close, moves up one and Life moves down one, but we know those could shift again.
Saturday’s BYU v St. Mary’s game was clearly of interest to anyone trying to track the best in men’s DI college rugby.
The score - 30-29 for BYU - was clearly an indication of how close these two programs can be. But it’s also worth considering that BYU led 27-15 60 minutes into the game, and looked like they could control things from there. They didn’t.
Alabama set down something of a market this past weekend with a win at the Moosemen 7s in Murfreesboro, Tenn.
