Massive Decider Weekend in D1-Level College Rugby
It is a big weekend of rugby in D1A but especially NCR D1 and D1AA.
Teams secure championships, and get into major playoffs this week.
Here's how it goes:
In the Big 10 we get the final between Indiana and Notre Dame, plus all the placement games. Both teams will get into the NCR playoffs, it's just the runner-up will have to play a play-in game.
Babson Did What?
Probably the biggest head-turner result in D1AA over the weekend was Babson eking out a 48-47 win over Northeastern in the Liberty Conference semifinals.
D1A Rankings for 2025-26 Week 10
Arizona's win over Cal Poly has us sitting up and taking notice.
It is, however, very early for both.
We have a couple of small moves such as GCU moving up a spot.
The pecking order seems to be settling down, however, we do have a few teams, such as Saint Mary's, UCLA, stepping into the competitive fray.
Men D1AA Rankings Week 10 25-26
This is one of the most competitive D1AA seasons in recent years.
As a result, being ranked is a massive compliment, and not really such an honor because we think the best team might still be ranked at #15. Who's to say Boston College isn't the best team around?

We were tempted to not move St. Bonaventure down after their loss to Penn State but Queens produced something big and they move to #2.
Wheeling's last couple of results have been a bit puzzling, but in the end we've got to move them down. Almost everyone has a chance to move up with the NCR playoffs looming, but really who can unseat Brown right now?
