Oxford University put up an improved display to draw 17-17 at Moseley on Wednesday night.
The Dark Blues came under the cosh early on but rallied to lead 7-0 at the break courtesy of a try from hooker Nixck Gardner, converted by Sam Egerton.
Moseley replied with a penalty, before Varsity No 8 Mike Rickner’s try, converted by Matt Shorthose, made it 14-3.
The home side hit back with a converted try, but a Shorthose penalty looked to have won it for the students, only for Moseley to snatch a draw with a converted try.
