Major Games And Our Picks In D1 College Rugby
FloRugby looks at the games in D1 college rugby this week and the most exciting matchups.
Some playoff and rankings ramifications hang on this weekend's men's D1 college games, with the Red River, California, SIRC, and independents, as well.
Last week we predicted outcomes at about a 90 percent clip, which was good. We got several games almost spot-on, including Utah tying UCLA.
Games To Watch:
#38 Air Force at #4 BYU
An important game for both in terms of making a case for the D1A playoffs.
#23 Davenport at #30 Clemson
Same story for both, especially Davenport, which can put itself in position to maybe win three games in the Mid-South this season.
#18 UC Davis at #1 Saint Mary's
The ramifications of this game are outlined here, but basically, Davis needs to hang tough all day to put itself in a good position in the California Conference. LIVE ON FLORUGBY.
#24 LSU at #25 Texas A&M
A massive game in the Red River. The winner almost certainly plays for a conference title.
#3 Cal at UBC
Wait, didn't these guys just play? Yes, they did, and Cal won. Now we'll see how they handle playing in Vancouver.
