OK State vs NC State

Roe was one of thef favorites to win after finishing high last year and earning a national title in track. Cook beat her today. Cook ran less than 20 MPW in high school while becoming the fastest girl in history. She just became the favorite to win.

NC State will struggle to heat OK State if they go 1-2 which looks likely.

Based on today's times vs what BYU ran in 2021 (March) I think BYU would still have won although it would have been close

1-2 does not win the team title. 4-and 5 usually do. AL went 1-3 in 2021 (March) and finished well back

Which converts to 5,10,40,80,120 top 5 at Nationals. That's just a ballpark guess and probably generous. But what percentage of the top runners in nation were at this meet? 10%,20%??? They'll be competing for 3rd or 4th. No chance for 2nd unless new Mexico or state have serious changes!

R u the guy who started the Dudek thread and 3 girls would obliterate every HS record threads? Sure seems like it! Look at the comp, girls finishing 3 through 7 r good but not great and only a few seconds back! cook And roe will finish like 7 and 12 at Nats and the team will baTtle for third at best

I saw enough in the times to say OSU can get 2 well inside top 10, 2 more 30-40 but their 5th maybe 60-70. That adds up to 140 or so which is probably too high for 1 or 2. unless as you say NC St and NM have some problems.

Cook beat the legendary Elise Stearns who was 196th last year by 12 secs! wow, Amazing! Guess if Stearns improves only slightly she is a serious title contender as well!

State's 5th will be well ahead of OSUs third! They will beat them by well over 100! All well and good!

Roe was 5th last year and won an NCAA title in the spring. What indicates that she is worse now? Looks like they could go 1-2.

Well over 100? Let's assume they go 4-8-30-40-70. NC State woukd have to score about 40 to be well over 100 ahead of them.

Please link to the multiple threads about 3 girls obliterating a record. I recall one person mentioning that 3 girls could beat the record. I can't even locate that thread so I think you are the one greatly exaggerating things.

Bro multiply there scores by 4 to 7 depending on how strong u think this meet was!

I mean what percentage of the top runners in the nation were at this meet? Seriously? 20%? Probably like 15!

There 5th runner will be lucky to break 100 at Nats and maybe 150 or 200 on a bad day!

Also answer the question did you start the dudek thread and those other crazy threads???

More like 4,8,35,70,110

"More like 4,8,35,70,110"

I think you are both underestimating the OSU runners. This course seems about 40 seconds slower than the Fl course, where 20:00 was about 45th last year. OSU's 3rd and 4th ran 20:40 and 20:45 so they could both be 45-55 at Nationals. And that is assuming no improvement in next 2 months. Recall Tuohy ran 20:41 on this course for 24th (in the weak year).

Their?

What happened to Roe that would cause her to be worse than last year?

Where did I say that? I think above I said both she and Cook look like they can be well inside top 10. Meaning 5th or better. 20:20 in this meet is very good.

Yeah and drastically different conditions! On that day the winds were crazy, today the weather was perfect, obviously it's a tougher course in November than it is in September! Also they're continually renovating it so that might be an issue as well

But the weather was drastically different and at least 20 seconds worth of time probably 30

And a simple thing is just to take a gauge of the competition at this race vs Nationals

I mean literally they'll be eight times as much competition at Nationals!

It's weird that you always seem to side with this guy is this potentially your alter ego or something, I mean he's borderline delusional and you're like defending em
