D1A Playoffs

A little lagniappe.

Going into the 2015-2016 season LSU decided to abandon the SEC (SCRC) and make the jump from D1AA to D1A. Since joining the Red River Conference, LSU has posted a combined record of 25-6 and a perfect 16-0 record in regular season conference games.

Of LSU's six losses, four have come against Top 5 teams (2 vs Arkansas St last year and 1 against Lindenwood and Life this year).

Here is the highlight video compliments of GiftTimeRugby for LSU's 51-15 victory over Arkansas. This one was expected to be a much closer game as Arkansas was the pre-season favorite to win the Red River North Division. Depending on how the season plays out, LSU may have a rematch to look forward to in the Red River Championship.

LSU vs Arkansas Highlights

FloRugby: New Leaders Emerge in Red River
From that article:

quote:
The Tigers thumped a very good Arkansas team 51-15 over the weekend. “We’re a good team,” LSU coach Scott McLean said. “We have some seniors who have been pretty much starters since they were freshmen. We’ve got some experienced guys.”

quote:
Cameron Troxler scored a try and did a solid job opening up the field. Wing Aidan Elias is very quick and scored two tries. Todd Dupre also did well, but this was his last game as he graduates this December.

quote:
“Our defense has been pretty solid all year, and even though our conference is getting tougher, I feel pretty good about where we are right now,” McLean said.

This match concludes LSU's fall schedule. The Tigers finished with a 4-1 record including a 2-0 conference record.

LSU will next be in action against #2 Life University in Atlanta. The Running Eagles will be heavily favored as their squad is the golden standard for collegiate rugby, but LSU will be looking to catch them sleeping and make some noise.

I'll post any relevant articles I see during this mid-season break. Until then..

Geaux Tigers and Bulawayo!
