Fisher will choke and get like 6th.
Also, team results will be BYU, 'Cuse, NAU top 3.
Can you name like one bad race Grant has ever had? Let alone choked in
Team result wouldn't surprise me although I don't think Cuse will get 2nd, BYU will win though
Exactly. Fisher is a titan when it comes to racing. He doesn't have bad days, and he often has great days. I don't think Knight chokes either, but he sometimes gets the tactics wrong or just hasn't been the best on the day.
I think the real problem with Fisher is that he's too dang realistic. Especially his freshman year, but also last year at NCAA XC, he just didn't seem to view himself as an actual contender, so he didn't put himself in position to win races. And then he'd have a huge kick and run pretty well and act surprised (I have the same criticism of Drew Hunter, but that's irrelevant for the NCAA). Having won the outdoor 5000 though, I have a feeling Fisher views himself as a contender in the NCAA, and won't have the same issue anymore, until he goes pro, if he goes pro.
