00:00 Saturday's match against BYU was the first of Cal's really serious rugby matches.
00:07 There's a handful of teams that are sort of elite rugby teams that are considered better than all the rest year after year.
00:14 Cal has games against, or matches against Army, Navy, and St. Mary's to come.
00:22 Those are three of the other schools that are really among the elite.
00:26 They don't play regular season matches against Life and Lindenwood, which are the other really elite rugby colleges.
00:35 Those are the ones that are typically competing for the right to play in the national championship.
00:40 As I said, Cal plays St. Mary's in their very last regular season game, and that's always typically the most important rugby match of the season
00:51 because of the East Bay rivalry and all that kind of stuff.
00:54 But they also play Navy, which is ranked number one at the time and has been a very powerful unit the last couple of seasons.
