Texas up 30 points after day 1. Not an insurmountable lead at all
Tomorrow
200 medley relay -
400 IM
100 Fly,
200 Free
100 ***
100 Back
3 meter diving
I predict a very tight race tomorrow.
Current Standings:
Texas 171
Auburn 141
Stanf 130
Florida 107
Cal 103
After the first 3 races tomorrow, if you just scored the psych sheet.
Auburn 238
Texas 215
Stanford 196
Florida 160
Cal 153
After the next three
Texas 290
Auburn 284
Stanford 252
Cal 239
Florida 196
And then there's still diving tomorrow night.
Then there is the 800 free relay which Texas should just own, but they choked last year.
But it would be
Texas 330
Auburn 310
Stanford 284
again, without diving.
But Texas needs every point, b/c the last day is auburn and Stanfords in a big way. The seeds has Texas scoring 108 that day, Auburn 139 and Stanford 157.
So that would be (without 3 meter on Friday or Platform on Saturday)
Auburn 449
Stanford 441
Texas 438
Still a looooong way to go, but we could be glued to diving on Saturday to determine who wins.
I saw Targett's splits too and wondered about his race. But that touch pad will record when his feet hit the wall. So my guess is that he messed up his turn - causing what looked like a slow 1st 25.
The incredible part is Adrian and Fiegen finishing 1-2 - both freshman.
It should start 1pm EST.
I have the choice of either staying home and watching this or going to the pool and doing my 2 miles.
Damn, I shouldn't even have to think about this.......:mad:
