haven't seen too much chatter yet about the upcoming cross season, but track is over so it's about that time to get hyped for cross

for individuals, it seems the foreigners are going to dominate with lalang as the obvious favorite and chelimo, ahmed, and lelei all possibilities for an individual title. the team title should be very interesting. who can replace collins and krause for the badgers? how high can texas rise? how will oregon bounce back after not making ncaa's? is oklahoma state's recent run of podium finishes coming to an end?

Wisco's getting transfers out the wazoo, son. They will be just fine.

re: I need a doctor

who are they getting?

if anyone has info on transfers that would be great. i've heard rumors flying around a lot about ivy leaguers with eligibility going to places like texas and colorado.

BYU returns 5 of their top 7, with the only significant loss being batty, from their 4th place team last year. they have title potential.

Ughh....the last thing I want is for a bunch of 25 year olds to win the team title.

re: steve dildarian

There is NO way Texas wins. Colorado will win. No one has that kind of firepower. Here are my predictions:

1. Colorado

2. BYU

3. Wisco

4. Oklahoma State

5. Texas

6. Oregon

What's the big deal with their age? Many of the 18 yr old freshmen have been training longer than the 25 yr olds have. So what exactly is the problem?

re: luv fast women

Florida women didnt even make it to Nationals last year, and you are predicting them in the top 10? The team is smokin hott, but that doesnt make them a top 10 XC team.

re: hott but not fast

re: NotAMerican

After Providence fell apart at the end of the season last year and didnt even qualify, can they get on the Podium?

Colorado should be really good with Cabral coming in for his Grad year.

re: dixswizzle

Some guy named Don Cabral

re: kjwadlsakdksad

I'd be willing to bet he goes pro instead of going to Colorado.

re: Will he be around?

Like Jenny B should have? The steeple isn't a money maker. If he thinks he can win a cross title or break some NCAA records, he will be able to get a better contract.
