For rugby fans out there, it isn't March Madness but May Madness. So, think you know DI-A rugby? We've teamed up with World Rugby Shop and RugbyRugby to challenge you get put in your predictions for this year's DI-A college championship. The winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to World Rugby Shop.
Here is how the contest will work: You fill out your brackets with the winners from every match, and at the end, the person with the most accurate bracket wins. So for example, say you pick Army to top Arkansas State and Utah to beat St. Mary's and then you have Utah beating Army to head to the title game. However, say Arkansas State beats Army, then your next round prediction (you had Army vs. Utah) would be incorrect, even if Utah beat St. Mary's. Remember, this is the highest percentage of brackets predicted accurately. The winner will most likely have predicted the tournament perfectly. If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to thisisamericanrugby@gmail.com.
If there are multiple people with the highest accuracy, a random drawing will be held to select the one winner. You can only submit one bracket. All brackets must be sent to thisisamericanrugby@gmail.com by Thursday, May 3rd at 11:00 p.m. et/8:00 p.m. pt.
Your e-mail should look like this:
Your First and Last Name
Your E-mail
#1, Army-Arkansas St.: (you pick the winner)
#2, Utah-St. Mary's: (you pick the winner)
#3, Life-Penn State: (you pick the winner)
#4, BYU-UCLA: (you pick the winner)
Winner #1-Winner #2: (you pick the winner)
Winner #3-Winner #4: (you pick the winner)
