The early season scores for Stanford were meaningless. Some guys had minimal pandemic training. Others were sitting out the season.
Now that everyone is back and Malone decided to compete this year, things are improving. Briones is not ready for prime time, and for some reason no one is doing well on floor, but we are in good shape to repeat.
Later in the season the scores are lower because the meets change format. Instead of six guys competing to give you 5 scores on an event, it switches to 5 guys competing to give you 5 scores. Today was 5 for 5.
We were away at Oklahoma. Scores are almost always lower for the visiting team than they would be at home.
We have the most talented team in the country. Oklahoma has a lot of no name guys who have been coached up to do one or two events really well. They have two all around national caliber guys. We have 5 or 6 guys with that kind of talent.
Oklahoma has always been exceptionally well coached. They are not a pushover.
Michigan and Nebraska are really good as well. Should be an interesting championship.
