All jokes aside (the Red Wolves beat the Razorbacks ), the Red Wolves just won the Mid South College Premier Division Champions!

They are ranked #3 in the nation.  If you have never been to a rugby match then you are truly missing out.  I don't care who you pull for, it's football without the helmets and pads. 

It's an Arkansas team so I'm proud of them.  The members are from South Africa, New Zealand, South America, England, USA and even one member is from West Memphis, Arkansas.   

I love rugby and I am still learning the rules but if you get the chance then go watch a match. 

Way to go Red Wolves!

They really are an impressive crew. Congrats on a great season and good luck in the tourney!

Uncle Ivan

It's a non-sanctioned sport, and like the joke of a football team there, can not draw fifty people there to watch.

Therefore, it does not matter.

Once again you blow smoke out of your butt out of disdain for a school.

There are usually several hundred people at Rugby matches.

Shouldn't you get banned for coming in and talking bad about a school? Especially one with a special thread? Seems to be like that in the Arkansas Football thread

Board heavy's don't get banned. Speaking out against the norm will get you banned. Ivan tries to play the funny guy, popularity contest.

I got banned for saying an Auburn recruit was better than a Razorback recruit and Im an Arkansas fan lol They say dont bash this or that or keep on topic... But in reality they are all hypocrits lol. Congrats to the ASU Rugby team I really enjoy watching Rugby... I know nothing about it lol But I know the All Blacks dominate ;) my step mom is from New Zealand. haha I watch any time I get a chance. Its a great game.

I just really try to get along with everyone.  I kid around on here with   Billyo, Earl, Bait, B.G., FD, Ricepig, the West Memphis goobers, the Cryant peeps and a few others.  Unless I'm super bored and just feel ornery.  I love Arkansas. and all Arkansas things.   Sometimes I get in an uproar but I try very hard to just keep my sense of humor and not too riled up over anything said on here.  Getting personal is wrong. 

I'm an alumni of Arkansas State University but I still love the Hogs.

I wasn't bashing anyone anyway.  I just know how most people love to bash on the Red Wolves so before they embarrassed themselves, I was telling them that the Red Wolves beat the Hog's rugby team.

And they are doing very well.   :)

Congrats.

I stick to real sports.

Our Gymnastics team had a match with over 5,000 recently. That is how we roll in Arkansas. If we aren't watching a real sport, we are going to go and watch attractive girls in tight clothing. Not rugby.

I know what you meant to say, but all I could think about was someone peeking into a house of middle aged women instead of 18-22 year olds haha.

Those rugby guys wear some short shorts and I have to say that in this weather that is a very manly thing to do  Those gymnastics girls have thighs like big bumpy boulders.   :)  And they perform in a nice warm building.

The Hogs have contacted the ASU Rugby coach to be the next Head Hawg football coach.

Seriously - Why did ASU not score a hundred? and Why did we let OU score 7?

Arkansas State University came in #2 in the nation.

They played BYU in the Championship game.

Here is a link to the game:




Congrats to these young gentlemen and hope for a HOWL of a year next year!

Go Red Wolves!!!

Just watched the game, granted don't know the rules but is exciting to watch. I get the when tackled put te ball through teammates legs and then toss it backwards, but why were some guys able to just get up and keep running. Guess I should google the rules

Nice to see stAte on a national platform though. Congrats to those guys an hope they have another great season next year.
