GRR: College Men
Several games gave us more of a look at where the teams fall in the Men's College rankings.
Certainly Central Washington's relatively emphatic defeat of Arizona gave CWU a well-deserved bump to #3. BYU< having tied Central, moves up right with them.
Six D1A men's college teams were in action Saturday along with two other D1 programs as we saw some movement in the Mid-South and a bit of a surprise result in Washington state.
Red WolvesTake Their ChancesArkansas State defeated Davenport 41-13 to improve to 1-2 in the Mid-South and the Red Wolves did in part thanks to some key positive moments.
The hoped-for college rugby games for this weekend is a much longer list than the actual games.
Cancelations both last-minute and de-facto have gone on, and that leaves us with a small number of games, but games that still matter.
When judging who should be ranked #1, sometimes you have to balance wins and losses; not just look for an undefeated team.
Now, you'd be forgiven for assuming that Life University would garner the #1 team after beating Lindenwood, but that's not the case.
GRR's #2 Life University defeated #1 Lindenwood on the road in St. Charles, Mo. Saturday.
It wasn't really a surprise in that Life has only lost to Lindenwood once (albeit earlier this season) in 15s, and often plays very well at Lindenwood. This is what happened on Saturday night. Life came in girded for payback and edged Lindenwood 32-26.
