GRR: College Men
As we've been saying in recent weeks, D2 is like pouring oil on water—the oil floats on top of the water and the top 15-20 teams are significantly stronger than the other teams.
Yes there might be one or two exceptions, but we probably know who will advance in the playoffs. That means that there don't end up being a lot of matchups where we're thinking "hey, check this one out!"
D1AA gets its share of upstarts each year, which is something we enjoy seeing.
This is a pretty significant weekend in D1A and NCR D1 college rugby.
The Rugby East conference title may well be decided this coming weekend.
Both Life University and the US Naval Academy are 4-0, and they play each other in Annapolis on Saturday.
These are teams that have been winning, and in fact winning well, for the most part. Not that it's been perfect.
The Battle for New York State is back on this weekend as St. Bonaventure faces Army Friday night at West Point.
Yes this is a game between the top two college rugby programs in the Empire State, but it’s also a game that carries some significance for the teams in terms of their respective playoff prospects.
