No one said you should be ashamed of getting 2nd, that's admirable for such a terrible program. We're just talking about how badly your team choked away the win

curiousrunner35. You don't have a clue about what you are talking about. Did you just call Purdue a terrible program? GTFOH!!

Remind me where their men and women have placed in cross the last few years? Hell I just tried to look and can't find them finishing Top 5 in their own conference even once in the past decade. Their mens program has done what? They scored in a single event lol.

They had a solid class of women move through in the sprints, but next year the women's team will be right back in the dumps

When have USC's men or women placed in cross? Oh wait, they don't even have teams. Does that make them terrible Track and Field programs?

Damn you shifted those goalposts real fucking quick. Where has Purdue's men place in track then? What about their women before this class came in?

Women won the Big Ten outdoor title last year. Men were 3rd as recently as 2016. Meanwhile, Kentucky's women were 6th at SEC outdoors this year. Are you gonna call them a terrible program?

As for "before this class came in", I don't know, but no one cares. They are obviously a very good team right now.

Nationals points are kind of a crapshoot. Ouside of the top 7 or 8, it really doesn't matter. Illinois men finished 20th this year after scoring 14 points, or, rather, after David Kendziera scored 14 points by himself. U of I got almost DFL at Big Tens, but they (Kendziera) finished above several Big Ten teams that are clearly better then them overall. Outside of the trophy teams, nationals points aren't a great way to judge the overall strength of programs.

What do you have against Purdue, anyway? You are heartlessly bashing them without any real justification. You clearly have some sort of vendetta.

No...he's just an idiot!

That's literally the whole discussion. 2 years doesn't make a program.

Also I was simply asking about other chokes, I didn't say anything about Purdue till some little crybaby started crying about their team.

The PU girl had concrete blocks on her legs the last 50 meters, not sure if she split under 14 the final100. And don't you dig deep when you hear 7500 people on the homestretch screaming. She kept going at her little ole pace. .

Maybe not a full choke but not a great effort. Know your surroundings and what is going on around you . Kids

LOL ... because running the fastest 400m of her life is not a great effort. Moran.

Ahem ... Purdue's anchor was Jahneya Mitchell. Her open 400m PR is 52.37. Her 400m relay split was 52.08.

Not her fastest split though. Don’t let facts ruin your ignorant narrative though kid. You’re a fucking newbie too

Can’t be me because here we are on page 3 and you’re still replying instantly.

So when the Falcons blew a 28-3 lead it wasn't a choke job because Brady is a better QB?

Exactly right! If you only lead Brady by 25, then you aren't really ahead -- Brady will beat you.

The Pats are Centro, not Pre. They let you jump out fast, and then in the final quarter, they make their move. Partly, they wait so you'll get tired, and partly they use the first three quarters to study your game plan so they can figure out how to beat it. Tired + outschemed = disaster.

It's like that guy from New York said: It ain't over 'til it's over. It wasn't over when Atlanta had a 25 point lead, and it wasn't over when Purdue was way out in front.

Moran ?

I’m not the one that ended up on ESPN . She ran a 52 maybe but it wasn’t enough . She got ran down !

Maybe she split 23 and 29 for 52 . That last 100 was awful
