Official 2016 NCAA Men's Outdoor Track and Field Discussion Thread

So for those of yall who are watching on TV, do any of yall have ideas on how to estimate splits when they have that head on camera angle down the home stretch? The 800 is the next distance event and I'm assuming the commentators will say the 400 split since its the only, but I'm just trying to plan how to do this better for the 5k

Allen wins the high hurdles in 13.50 into a headwind and destroying practically every hurdle.

Why does anyone need a description with live splits?

Because it's quicker to scroll down one thread isntead of juggling mutliple browsers. Some guys might be on a date or putting the kids in bed.

That's exactly what I am doing. The kids one

8:27.16

38.32 [38.32]

1:46.44 [1:08.13]

2:53.73 [1:07.30]

4:00.56 [1:06.83]

5:06.81 [1:06.25]

6:11.81 [1:05.01]

7:17.53 [1:05.73]

8:27.16 [1:09.64] ~ slowest lap of the race

What an awesome run for him.

Andy why didn't Larry R mention that Ferlic fell last year on the water jump. That would actually been something useful to say for once., particularly on the last lap.

He did right before the gun went off.

Sure I'll try. Unfortunately I haven't really been keeping up with NCAA much, is there a small list of athletes and their respectivesschools you think I should try and keep an eye for? It makes it easier than having to just look at jerseys then try and switch between the startlist and this forum

You're doing great. Thanks

Thanks! I haven't had cable till now for a couple years, and during that time I was refreshing this page like crazy during meets

I love how Larry gave the wind in MPH. #murica

Thanks for posting official splits! It was an awesome performance!

Anyone know what they were talking about when they mentioned a collision in the 1500?

Interesting to see Robert Johnson left out of the "athletes first" segment with the other coaches, pretty funny in light of recent events.

This race is a little over 1/15th of a mile

All these non-metric stats are freakin' killing me. JUST GIVE BOTH, Jesus Christ.

Larry Rawson's commentary may be a bit tacky, but it beats Tom Hammond any day.

Can't wait for the 800!

How many cubits is that?

wow mitchell-blake with the worst start i have ever seen in a sprint event and just jogged it in, maybe still injured after that relay? Lawson gets the win, big points for arkansas.

Also does it strike anyone else as humorous that we have 2 guys under 1:45 plus another at 1:45.03 and it is pretty much universally agreed that the best 800m runner in the NCAA isnt running?

Hand Arkansas the title?

My god those 100 guys laid a good egg. I know they ran into a wind. By teh Texas guy who ran 9.93 didn't win. The LSU guy barely finished. Burrell didn't win.

Jarrion Lawson won in 10.22!!! Arkansas going to win it all now. LSU can't win without the points in the 100 and 200? Or is Oregon going to do it??

I told you guys, they didn't notice or mention that Blake got injured in the 4x100. Boy I wonder what happened to Blake??
