Not so much movement on this week’s Down Under Endeavours Top 25, but what changes there are take place in the Top 10.

In total, just six teams are on the move.

San Diego State, Utah and Arkansas State ascend the rankings, while Army, St Mary’s and UC Davis take slight dips.

In Army's case, the Knights became the third heavy hitters to be struck out by Life University. Kutztown and Arkansas State also fell to the Running Eagles in recent weeks.

Looking ahead to Super Saturday, everything could hit the fan again.

The Mid-Atlantic, South and Western Conferences will all decide their champions and two seeds respectively for the Round of 16 and that means there are at least 12 teams that could make some serious impacts on next week’s Top 25, but we’ll have to wait and see.
