GRR: College Men
Last week we were 32-5 in picking winners, and most of the wrong picks were the fault of the Northern Lights Conference, where MSU Moorhead came out of almost nowhere to beat everyone and win it all.
Had we bothered to make a pick for the Sunday playoffs that 86% strike rate would have dipped a bit.
The hot weather has finally abated in Texas and surrounding states and with the more fall-like weather the college rugby season is underway.
Three games are on the slate in the Red River Conference, with Baylor at LSU, Texas Tech at Oklahoma, and Texas A&M at Texas.
The Men's Pacific Western Conference and the Women's Pacific Mountain West Conference will hold their 7s championships November 2 at Stanford University.
The tournament will be shown live on Facebook (link coming).
Iowa Central Community College has been notified that if the men's rugby team wants to play in the playoffs, it will have to be in DIAA.
It's a bit of a rivalry weekend in DIA and DIAA college rugby with several schools that have a bit of a history going at it; one of those rivalries will be revisited in the Rocky Mountains as Colorado takes on Colorado State.
