The scores for the falls ans out of bounds did not count because each team drops the low score on each apparatus. So 6 girls compete, top 5 scores count. That's not home cooking.
Either way, our girls earned that incredible win.

This......I saw maybe a small touch of home cooking, but I think the judging was pretty fair overall.... It was really more a factor of only having to drop that one bad score and everybody else for Florida hitting when they did not home cooking


I also thought that the scoring overall at Florida was a little more forgiving, than we see at LSU... both teams scored higher than I think they would've in the PMAC, that's why the judging is so objective

I trust we're not going to argue over whether home cooking exists in gymnastics. Because it does, the sport is infamous for it.

Almost as bad as ice skating in that regard.
