College Rugby Live Online... if it works...

I'm not sure if this USA Rugby Media Player will work or not, or whether they will even feature BYU's matches or not...

At best, the only other option is to check the USA Rugby website and see the "USA Rugby Live Scoreboard" (just scroll down on the main article page) which isn't really live at all but quite delayed in its updates. For example, right now it only shows that Arkansas State beat Navy, 50-7; no results yet provided for the Utah vs. LSU game (by now already finished) or for the BYU vs. Dartmouth game (that should now be well under way). Sad, sad...

At least my camera crew is there at the games, so they will let me know the scores at halftime and immediately after the game is over. I'll keep you posted... Go BYU!
