Going with the Michigan sweep of Vanderkooi and Carter Solomon!
Editor's note. We've turned this into a discussion of the boys race at FL. The girls discussion can be found below. We moved a few posts about the girls race to the following thread as well:

Here is the LetsRun Foot Locker preview.
I think Methner or Graydon Morris will win it.
methner.
Josh Methner for the win, Liam Murphy seconds
Methner methed up and went too hard at NXN
He tried to test himself against Nico Young and got a respectable second, has my respect
How many boys are in this race that have never broken 9:10 for 3200?
How many girls in this race that have never broken 10:20 for 3200?
This is XC. Times don't matter or Methner would have finished 50th place at NXN. He hasn't broken 9 but he beat many guys who have run 8:40 or 8:50.
methane wins no question. He beat out the best field in NXN history, besides young. He can jog this race and win.
Methner wins, Boyden second, Morris third
Justin Wachtel somewhere in the top 3 Idk how but it will happen
Morris is headstrong and experienced, my money is on him. Liam Murphy has been consistent all season so I expect a top 5 finish from him. If the race is pushed from the gun, that might change things, but I don’t expect that.
A little late, but here's a prediktion.
1 - Anderson
2 - Morriss
3 - Methner
4 - Sherry
5 - Solomon
6 - Boyden
7 - Murphy
8 - Jennings
9 - Favazza
10 - Greer
I just have a feeling that Anderson, Sherry and Boyden will overperform. Anderson is unbeaten, much stronger this year, and already had the "deer in the headlights" FL experience last year, he's ready now. Sherry as a soph appears to be the real deal, great outlook for the future. Solomon seems to be the strongest of the Michigan 7, can MI win the team title? Jennings bounces back for another battle with Murphy.
Much respect to Methner and Morris, if either wins I am quite happy to be wrong with my pre diktion.
Looking forward to a great race.

Patrick Anderson winning is my prediction as well. He is undefeated, and his wins were usually over brutal ‘true’ xc courses. He set course records on both the regional and state courses, and most intriguingly has yet to be challenged in a race all season. He’s far better than he’s been ranked.
1. Josh Methner
2. Graydon Morris
