GRR: College Men
The final standings are set for the Liberty Conference and four teams are left for the playoffs.
Three teams ended up 1st in their division, and all were undefeated: Syracuse, Iona, and Northeastern.
With the #1 team losing we have to have a new #1.
Adrian had a good chance to vault into that place but—as has been the case through a chunk of their season—they had an opponent cancel on them, and #2 Norwich beat a ranked opponent in convincing fashion. So it's logical that Norwich takes the #1 spot.
West Point beat Navy 24-17 Saturday at FedEx Field to clinch 1st in the Rugby East Conference and also put the Black Knights on the inside track to win the Commander-in-Chief Trophy, played among the three military academies.
It was a big shakeup in the Southern Rugby Conference with #1-ranked Furman getting unseated by UNC-Charlotte.
Michigan and Michigan State both won in Big Ten action and that sets up a key clash between the two rivals on Friday.
That's when the two 2-2 teams will meet, with the winner almost certainly joining Illinois in the 3rd-4th game on Finals Day.
