    Channelsurfing.net usually has a rugby match on
    The Rugby World Cup only occurs once every few years. I can't remember the exact timing, and won't look it up. Clenz, if you like rugby, check out the Five Nations Tourney. That's telecast worldwide too, and involves nations from the former English empire (UK, Wales, South Africa, Ireland, etc.). Can't remember the details on that either, but it's about as high level as you can get.

    Since you guys are a little starved for sports...Cubs single game tix went on sale today The NFL Scouting Combine is also underway.

      Now... all those comebacks in the Sanders era and many great games prior...ya those were cool, but without National hardware...it comes in 2nd.

      Just burns my bum we should have had 3 National titles in the last 4 years ('05, '07, '08)
      2007?

      Yes we should have beaten Delaware at home. Keep in mind we would then have hosted SIU, always a toss-up. THEN we would have had to go to Chatty and play a very strong App State team. Just wasn't going to happen in 2007.

      2005, yes, but we got so many breaks in the playoffs our luck finally ran out.

      2008 was a great shot. I firmly believe we would have beat Montana in the final game.

          Not that I disagree with what you are saying, but SIU at home in the dome is not a toss up. Its almost a lock for a UNI win.

            Although they played us very close at home earlier that year, it is safe to say that we would have probably beat them the week after Delaware considering how they completely layed down AT HOME for UD.

              I've been watching the IBR Seven's championships (or something like that) on ESPN 360 recently.

                I started watching some rugby last year. I think it was the World Cup. I don't understand a lot of it but it looked interesting. I saw a lot of similarities between it and football in its early years. I was hoping it would be on some of the Fox Sports channels but no luck.

                  yup. just like it is a lock for an SIU win anytime we play in Carbondale.
                  I think it's even in the rules, which is why the team was forced to piss away the game down there this past fall.

                    American football came from rugby. There aren't many rules, once you learn the basics the rest just falls into place.

                      Yeah, I know. I used to watch it on Bender Field too when I was going up to UNI. I knew a couple of guys on the team too.

                        The '07 UNI football team was ranked number 1 in the nation and is far superior in comparison to the '08-'09 SIU basketball team this year.

                          I was talking about the the '08 football team pissing away the game against SIU.
