it looks as though the showdown winner will be who wins two or more next weekend!

The only way that we can win the trophy is sweep the remaining points. If this doesn't happen, then the sips keep the trophy. In the event of a tie, the school that won it the previous year keeps the trophy.

Is A&M in a good position to win some points in either men's or women's outdoor track and field? I think two-thirds of the events are over... but I could be wrong.

i am pretty sure the men's track team will finish behind tu.

The page with the live stats is not working right now, so I don't know how we are doing.

women should finish higher than tu, but men will finish lower, barring something unforeseen. i do not think the men have enough competing on the final day for points.

even if we can't pull it off, the progress we have made in the past couple of years is amazing.

It is in some of our teams heads, but we still choke too often against tu, even when we know we are the better team. We should be comfortably ahead or tied right now in the standings.

Let's go ski-man!

I finally got to the live stats/results site. Through today, sips are ahead in both men's and women's. Women's are 10 points behind after 7 events, but are very strong and will post alot of points tomorrow in the finals. Men are 14 points back. Sips usually have a strong showing in field events, decathlon (A&M doesn't really compete in decathlon), and distance events. I think that the lead for the sip men is to large to overcome. We make make a move but will probably fall behind. It is good to note that the men have the best 4x100 relay team and the 2nd best 4x400 realy team in the conference. Baylor (no shock) is the best 4x400 relay team.

Tie Breaker — If, at the conclusion of the Lone Star Showdown Rivalry Series, the Universities are tied at 9 ½ points, the team who last won the Rivalry Series championship retains the title (in the first Contract Year, points for the previous year will be tallied as if the Rivalry Series had been in effect).

So in the event of a tie, we lose? Since they won last year?

Yes. In a tie, we lose.

A&M women have very strong relays and sprinters. That's where we'll rack up the points on the women's side, which is great, because forever the tu women have owned the sprints.

Well, our men false started in the sprint relay, so there goes 10 points.

How do you false start in a relay? Wow, just wow!
