College Men
Playoff ramifications are already on some teams’ minds as we enter the meat of the Men’s DII college season.
Leagues have about 50 games going on this week, about 100 teams in action, and a huge percentage of these teams are thinking they are in a position to make a conference playoff, or better.
But some matchups are more equal than others. Here's a look at some:
Is it a three-team race in the NEWCRC?
Maybe.
We’re two weeks into the New England-Wide Conference, and three teams in the Tier 1 are undefeated. Hope is not lost for the rest of the teams, but they’ll need a little bit of help.
The Rugby Northeast conference already has its key games, and in fact we’re not that far from playoff time.
It was a weekend of tight games and a few upsets. Here's a look at some of the best performers in Men's DII college rugby.

No one doubts that Wisconsin Whitewater is still the favorite to win the Great Midwest Conference, but other teams are bubbling up to a high level.
Loyola of Chicago has beaten UIC and DePaul and looked pretty good doing it. Their only loss was 27-22 to Illinois State, which sits 3-0.
UW-Platteville is only 1-2, but beat UW-Milwaukee 22-19 on a dramatic last-minute score.
