This weekend is all about getting started for spring-centric college rugby teams, and we’ve got the games and out picks in D1A.
BYU at Texas A&M and TexasThe Cougars travel to the Lone Star State to kick off 2020 and will test themselves against the Red River Conference favorite (A&M) and a much-improved Longhorns team.

Grand Canyon University held off a late surge from Cal Poly to win a key California Conference game 13-10 on Sunday.

Don’t look now but there’s a major college game in the California Conference in one of the earliest weeks.
Yes, so Saint Mary’s is atop the conference at 2-0 and is favored to be 3-0 by weekend’s end. But who can chase the Gaels? Cal Poly is much improved this year, and Grand Canyon, the #2 team out of the conference last season, is back.
Fordham University men’s rugby capped off their three-match tour of Ireland with a 31-7 loss to Highfield Rugby Club, finishing off the tip 2-1.
