Lindenwood came back to bet BYU 21-14 in what was a battle of a game in St. Charles, Mo. Friday.
Both teams played very solid rugby, executed well, and were up for it. In the end, Lindenwood’s powerful scrum produced two key scoring chances late in the game to win it.

Four Left in Heart of America Playoff Weekend
The University of Texas signaled a change in the Red River over the weekend with a 25-3 defeat of Texas A&M.
The game wasn’t a conference matchup—it was alumni weekend for UT and A&M was available to play, but still it was the Longhorns’ first victory over the Aggies in 15 years.
Not playing does cost teams in rankings.
It costs you more if you're not ranked as highly to begin with. Why is that? Because usually a team started being ranked highly because it is good every year. So you need more results to dislodge such a team.
The first two rounds in the new Midwest D1A Conference didn’t yield much in the way of drama, but we got it this past weekend.
Lindenwood and Davenport came into the game having both beaten Adrian and McKendree (those two meet this coming weekend) and ready for what has become a nicely heated rivalry match.
