Absolutely amazing day yesterday:

Ohio State claimed the final spot in the 2014 Collegiate Rugby Championship, winning the Big Ten 7s Saturday in Columbus, Ind. The Buckeyes went 5-0 on the day, beating Iowa 29-12 in the final.

The Hawkeyes actually led Ohio State 12-10 at halftime of the championship game, but as they did most of the day, the Buckeyes proved to be the better team in the second half. The game was a rematch of a 24-19 pool win for Ohio State.

Iowa had to go through Indiana, which dominated its pool, to reach the final. Ohio State beat Purdue 19-7 in its quarterfinal and Wisconsin 24-7 in the semifinals.

Leading the Buckeyes was a pair of 15s loose forwards - Santino Cua and Danny Nolan. Both are tough to bring down and big in the set piece. They combined for 11 tries prior to the final.

My mistake. Didn't realize the issue was that I used Chrome, but needed to use IE.

Lost to Navy 31-5 last night. Made every mistake possible and didn't play our patern. Bounced back with a 26-5 win over Texas this morning. We take on 2-0 Michigan at 3:57PM on NBC. Need a win to have a chance to advance to the championship round tomorrow.

Go Bucks!
