GRR: LSU
It's championship time for the Red River Conference, as Baylor takes on LSU in Austin, Texas.
The game is part of a big day of rugby at the Austin Huns field in Austin, in which University of Arkansas plays Texas, Texas Tech plays Houston, and Oklahoma plays Texas A&M.
It's not too early to look at the DIA playoff scenarios, and in fact we're almost at a point where the playoff teams could be mostly confirmed.
Here's the rundown:
Rugby East. Penn State won the Rugby East and will go to the Varsity Cup instead. The rest of the teams in Rugby East are playing 7s or the Varsity Cup, so we won't see a Rugby East team in the playoffs at all.
LSU can clinch the Red River South with a win over Texas A&M this weekend, but in fact it's pretty much a foregone conclusion win or lose.
Twelve teams met on a beautiful day to compete in the New Orleans Collegiate 7s Tournament this past weekend.
Arkansas State University defeated LSU 27-17 in a non-conference match that perhaps says more good things about LSU than the Red Wolves.
For Arkansas State, it was another warmup game as they look to the start of the Mid-South conference season. Playing against the wind in the first half, ASU kept running into penalty problems around the breakdown.
