If Tech is going to win, they have to do it by the 200m. If Florida and Houston are within range after that event, the 4x400 could be wild and decide everything.
I included Georgia, BYU, and LSU even though none will probably score enough to be in the running. However, stranger things have happened.
COMING IN TO AUSTIN, the NCAA men’s team-title race looked to be a 2-way battle. After the finish of the decathlon at Mike Myers Stadium on Thursday night it’s still a 2-way battle, but with one big difference: the team chasing Texas Tech is now Houston, not LSU. The Cougars had a superb first day and the Tigers did not. Meanwhile, Wes Kittley’s Red Raiders performed about as suspected, but found their projected margin of victory shrinking from 10 to 5 after Wednesday action and then to a single point once deca results rolled in.
