Schools Cup: What the Rankings Say – Quarter Finals

We are back with our now “almost legendary” predictions based on our Ulster Schools Rugby Rankings data produced after the last round of the Schools Cup and Trophy.

As before, we’ve added their current form, or should I say their form over their last five matches, against Ulster schools opposition, in the manner of wins/draws/losses and each schools’ current rankings are in brackets.

1/0/4 Campbell College (10) v (5) Enniskillen Royal Grammar 3/0/2
Enniskillen by 5

5/0/0 Methodist College (1) v (7) Royal Belfast Academical Institute  2/1/2
Methody by 20

4/0/1 Rainey Endowed (8) v (2) Wallace High School 3/1/1
Wallace by 11
