Ha! Some might say out penultimate rankings involve a lot of guesswork.
Many of the major college games this weekend were really scrimmages, but there were some straight results we want to bring you.
Navy beat Mount St. Mary's in a game that was way, way closer than the score makes it appear.
It's warmup time and a lot of D1 college teams are testing out their lineups.
We've already seen some results from last week, and earlier this week Kansas and Lindenwood's 2nds battled in some not insignificant heat in a game that was called early due to lightning. So really hot and thunderbolts from the sky. Nice.
The Liberty Conference D1 schedule kicks off in a week with the first conference games, so this week is a quick runway for everyone.
It's a relatively tight schedule as these teams try to squeeze as many 15s games into the fall as possible. Teams have one week off and other than that go week-to-week to get nine games in before the NCR playoffs kick off.
With the MLR Draft finally done, we can look at a few and background facts.
A previous post on GRR spoke about how many minutes drafted players get.
