Consider the talk of Phelps winning 8 gold, I wonder who everyone thinks will win the 400 Free Relay.
There are several countries that have the potiential to win this race.
Someone brought this scenario up on collegeswimming.com: what about the possibility of Phelps not getting to swim the relay? It seems like a huge stretch, but it's certainly possible. What kind of swim would it take to knock Phelps out of his spot? For all intents and purposes Weber-Gale and Lezak are locks since they were 1-2 in the 100 free at Trials and they have the fastest two times in U.S. history. But if two prelims swimmers manage to swim a 47 low could Phelps' spot be in jeopardy?
