BYU’s Saturday evening is a little different from its fellow DI playoff contenders. The Cougars now know they’re heading to the spring Final Four in Pittsburgh, having contested its first two rounds in Albuquerque on Friday and Saturday. Yesterday, BYU blanked Cal 97-0; today, the Cougars topped New Mexico 75-5.
The DI South sees Life and North Carolina into the spring quarterfinals, with the victor heading to Pittsburgh for the Final Four. The Running Eagles was one conversion away from the century mark in its 98-0 win over Texas A&M, while North Carolina turned a three-point lead into a 55-21 victory today in Greenville, S.C.
