In an earlier thread, someone was saying how rugby results and the strength (or lack of) for SEC schools is not common knowledge. Well, I'm here to change that. I'm going to list every team, all results that I can find, rankings, etc. Most scores I'll be able to find on Twitter, Facebook, or the Team Website.

I'll start with LSU and A&M since they're the only SEC schools in D1A (Red River Rugby Conference), next is Arkansas and Missouri who play in the D1AA Heart of America Conference. Finally, I will list the rest who play in the SCRC (Southeastern Collegiate Rugby Conference) and only play 7's rugby in the Spring and 15's in the Fall.

Here's a current ranking by GoffRugbyReport.com who ranks a Top 50 regardless of division.

14. LSU
20. Texas A&M
25. Tennessee
29. South Carolina
31. Arkansas
39. Alabama

And there we have it. Schedule and results for all 14 SEC schools. Some dates may be incorrect as most results were pulled off of social media. If you have any questions about rugby feel free to ask. I'll try and update this thread with any relevant rugby results.

Arkansas State is using cheat codes. They started offering in-state tuition to international players about 6 years ago. Since they went Varsity they've been unbeatable to non-varsity clubs.

LSU is 1-2 against them in the past decade with the win the first year they started pulling international recruits.

Now, the chancellor that started the current ASU system is at LSU-Alexandria.

Arkansas knocks off Missouri 38-7 in Columbus today to win the Heart of America conference and secure a spot in the D1AA playoffs. Missouri is still a likely candidate for an at-large bid after a good season.

Not sure. Most of the clubs around the SEC were started in the late 70's early 80's so probably around then. Not sure about their history but they haven't been very good lately.

Nah, just the second round tournament. You score points based on your finish. The next tournament is the actual SEC Championship tournament. All the first two do is to decide seeding.

Win the SEC Championship Tournament and you earn a spot in the Collegiate 7's National Championship Tourney.

I went and watched Bama play Tennessee in Rugby a couple years ago. We got skullfricked, but it was fun to watch. I enjoy rugby.

I haven't watched Alabama's guys play since I was in college there.. not counting online streams, but I saw the female team when they came down to the gulf coast area for a tournament of some kind. Wish I could see more.
