Did we blow our chances at repeat or just make it harder?

I would not give it up yet - Goodwin from tu jumped 8.15M already in the LJ and Taylor is not close to that - maybe he comes in 2nd or 3rd and loses 2-4 pts from their projection then you need Mitchell and Phiri to pick up some pts in the 200. Plus not sure on the shot put where their guy stands but he was projected for 2nd.

i'm not excusing it, but it's not the cakewalk you assume it is



They only practice hours on end performing a baton pass. It's not that freaking hard to do if you've done it before.

And yes, I've run relay teams, and while you may lose a little time trying to cradle a baton in the handoff, it's much better than the alternative.

Yeah, Phiri could have slowed to a crawl to make sure he got the baton & at least get us 2-4 points. They are well aware of the points & the difference those 2-4 points would have meant.

long jump update???

Echard 6th and Reid 8th after first flight of long jump. Real iffy for them to make the 9-person final after second flight of jumpers.

Don't know about the UF guy

These guys are jogging.

That jog is most people's sprint.

Unbelievable. A&M has a history of baton drops and screw ups like this. All they had to do was finish the race and get some points to keep us in it! Wow, what a meltdown. We need a miracle to pull this off now. At least the women are going to win their 2nd straight title.

And therein lies the problem - I'm not convinced the men do. Happens too often for this team.

I know the women practice a lot - I've heard them talk about it in their interviews and they also emphasize "get the baton around". You'll hear them say it every time. The men, not so much..... unfortunately. Maybe after experiencing this disaster two years in a row we will see something different next season.

UO 1-2-3 in the men's 1500.

Florida 38, A&M 36
Projected points and remaining events
A&M: 59
LJ: 0 (Julian and Melvin might pick up some)
200m: 13 (Curtis first and Gerald sixth)
4x400: 10 (projected first but may not finish that high)

Florida: 64 [LJ - 10, SP - 8, 4x400 - 8]

I do not see how the MEN can win now.
S.S.Aggie
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Again, the men CAN still win the title. Extra points in the 200 could be the key, or UF losing some in the LJ or shot.

Acosta slowed down the last 5 meters to allow Wheating to win it. He could have easily passed Wheating and got the win for himself.

Well, now it looks like Oregon will finish ahead of us as well. 3rd place would be a disaster in this meet.
astros45

why can't florida drop the baton
clw04
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Oregon has no chance to get second unless we don't point in our remaining events.

If Eaton wins the Long Jump they can only have 54 points.
AgBrother

Based on the results posted on track and field news after the first flight Taylor is tied for 3rd (7.60m)with Gordon (7.60m) behind Goowdin (8.15m) and Cole (7.90m)so if you assume he loses 4 points if he somehow finishes 3rd and A&M picks up 1 point in the 200 then you have a dead heat and the only remaining would be the 4X400 and Florida SP. According to those results Eaton would be out.

You beat me to it, Astros.

After the 2nd flight, the top 9 jumpers will go to the final.

Supposedly there will not be any field event live updates today according to someone on Track and Field News Message Board.

S.S.Aggie - I do not think we will win the 4x400 thus dropping our projections further.

A&M 1-2-5 in the 200.

The title is ours!!!!
