Scotland vs USA Rugby Autumn Nations Series Live Updates, Score & News

USA Rugby heads to Murrayfield, Edinburgh to face off against Scotland in Round 1 of the Autumn Nations Series.

Action starts at 1:40 p.m. ET on Nov. 1, streaming on Peacock.

Scotland enters the game No. 8 in the World Rugby Rankings while the USA sits at No. 15. The teams last met last year in Washington, D.C., where Scotland took home a 42-7 victory.

However, in 2018 the USA stunned Scotland 30-29 for its first win over the Tier 1 team. After a last-minute Scottish try, Blair Kinghorn missed the conversion kick that would have sealed the game. The victory was a landmark moment for the USA, symbolizing its potential and a new era of true international contention.

Both teams won their most recent matches — the USA beat Samoa 29-13 while Scotland topped the All Blacks 29-26.

With historic wins and recent success in mind, both the USA and Scotland look to start Autumn Nations and Autumn Internationals play strong.

Halftime Whistle Sounds: Score 45-0

Scotland 45 – 0 USA

From minute one, Scotland has dominated the game. After finding their first try in the 5th minutes, the Scots haven’t stopped scoring. 

The USA is having trouble making good defensive decisions and gaining any rhythm on offense. The Eagles just look to get more touches and get comfortable in possession. They likely have no illusions of winning but can still make use of the test.

Darcy Graham Finished Try – 35′

Scotland 45 – 0 USA

Passes down the field make their way to Kyle Rowe, who misses the catch but deflects the ball towards Graham. Graham scoops up the ball and slides over the try line.

Hastings’ conversion kick doesn’t quite make it through the posts. 

Try Six for Scotland – 27′

Scotland 40 – 0 USA

Sixth Scottish try by Dobie, and Hastings adds the conversion.

As soon as Scotland gets into the outside channel, it seems a try is forthcoming. The USA hasn’t cracked how to defend the Scots. The Eagles have hardly held possession. 

Scottish Try by van der Merwe – 23′

Scotland 33 – 0 USA

van der Merwe makes Scotland’s fifth try. Hastings narrowly misses the conversion, which swings too far left.

The USA is having trouble making good reads at the line, springing all kinds of defensive leaks. Scotland’s wingers are linking up to get as many touches as possible. At that point its a numbers game, more hands on ball more scoring opportunities.

Fourth Try for the Scottish Hosts – 19′

Scotland 28 – 0 USA

A beautiful link play between Graham and Jamie Dobie, who catches the assist to bring the ball down the middle right over the try  line. Dobie knew exactly where he and his teammates were on the field, and use the spacial awareness to be in the right place at the right time.

Hastings makes the conversion attempt. 

3 Tries in 5 Minutes for Scotland – 9′

Scotland 21 – 0 USA

Graham adds the try this time. Scotland is on a roll as they find their third try of the game before the first ten minute mark. Hastings adds the conversion.

If these first few minutes are any indication of the rest of the game, the USA will be looking to just put as many points on the board as possible. The Eagles just look for reps and solid defense.

Scotland Adds Second Try Just Minute Later – 6′

Scotland 14 – 0 USA

Scotland adds another try just a minute later. Duhan van der Merwe adds the points and Darcy Graham adds the conversion.

Scotland Finds First Try – 5′

Scotland 7 – 0 USA

Scotland puts the first points on the board as Dylan Richardson muscles over the try line. The Scots’ clear strategy out the gate is to just keep attacking until they wear down the defense

Adam Hastings makes the conversion.

Scotland Misses Early Opportunity – 2′

Scotland 0 – 0 USA

The match is already off to a fiery start.

Scotland finds an early opportunity to run the ball, but they narrowly miss the chance to bring it all the way over the try line. The USA plays solid defense to block the early challenge.
