GRR: College Men
Cal rode a strong second half to beat UCLA in the PAC Rugby Conference opener, and the Golden Bears followed that up with a defeat of NSCRO team Cal Maritime.
UCLA battled and held Cal to a 12-0 lead at halftime, before the Bears opened up to win 59-7.
Lindenwood chalked up a key conference victory Saturday, beating Arkansas State 38-20 in a non-league Mid-South game.
The Arizona Wildcats got back on winning ways with a 25-13 defeat of Grand Canyon University at GCU.
This was a non-conference crossover game for both teams, but has important rankings ramifications. With Arizona having lost at home to Central Washington last week they were looking to rebound, and they did.
We had a look at these games earlier in the week.
D1A Games This Weekend: Several Big Rankings Clashes
DIAA Games This Weekend: Early Statement Time
The Florida DIAA conference has the potential to go down to the final weekend, it is that close.
But there are opportunities for one team or another to break away from the pack. This weekend Florida State at Central Florida might be one of those opportunities. FSU is already 2-0 and could be in very good shape. Lose, and Central Florida tightens the pack.
