Manzano will beat Rupp. This a 1500 and that is Manzano's specialty. If it was a 5 or 10 I would go with Rupp. No way in Rupp can beat Manzano in a 1500.

Meh...
Rupp is consistent so he is the safe bet.
But I believe that Manzano has a new found confidence that will help him to run a pretty fast time.
I see both of them being top 5 with new PR's. I am more concerned about what nasty time Rupp is going to throw down in the 5,000m coming up.
I have felt deprived all season with no record chasing really and I'm glad that he is up front about taking down a 12:53 by Lagat.
1. Manzano 3.29.5
2. Rupp 3.30.4
3. Centro 3.31.0
American sweep, in an epic showing of American dominance
Just what I thought would Happen....
MATT BEATS BOTH OF THEM! I figured Rupp would be a DNS not a DNF, wonder what happened... Hope he didn't injure himself.

Git r done!
Rupp=spineless
BRING IT HOME WHITEY!= brokenhearted
because his dream boyfriend turned out to be spineless
Nope ,sorry never liked the guy. He has had every advantage given to him from high school on. Always thought it was acrock of sh*t when he had Al Sal coaching him while he was at Oregon. Spoiled kids like him when faced with a race he can't win choke and drop out. Guys like you that ride the bandwagon are going to be disappointed.

You're an idiot! what do you think that if you had been given the same opportunity you would be that fast? HELL NO! Think about it...
You are Alberto Sal... Nike says "Hey Al, We are going to give you a shit load of money to coach a max of 6 athletes at a time. Give you state of the art everything. What kind of plans do you have for your runners?" HMMMMM he AL says "I think I'll pick up some good collegiate kids and look for a high schooler that I can develop over time.."
You are an idiot... Galen works his ass off, doesn't have a social life so that that way he can run a race in in 27 minutes and make this country proud. I have met him twice and each time was as nice as can be. You probably like that ego-tistical punk German who hasn't really gotten any better since his freshman year except for one 1500m. Galen has run consistently better every single year. THAT SOB WILL WIN GOLD!
u must be trolling to put out a thread like this.
Centro now #9 all-time U.S., I believe.
