Who Made a Move in D1A This Weekend?

This weekend in D1A College action brought a few surprises.

In a defensive battle in the first half, it wasn’t until the 26th minute that anyone scored—Seth Kros went over, and Jony Lee’s conversion made it 7-0 for the Running Eagles.

D1AA Spring Rankings Week 7

We are pretty well set in our rankings now until the national playoffs happen.

We could still see Florida State upset MAU, and shift things there, but right now it looks as though MAU and ARC will win their conferences.

At the 16-20 level we do have some changes ... changes that are probably overdue. Claremont Colleges comes in and that seems to be the right move.
