The only sport out of the three that I would say there's not much of a chance is gymnastics, just because of the way that scoring works in that sport. Oklahoma would have to absolutely shite the bed in the championships to lose. Softball and basketball are much more volatile. A bad shooting night or a star player gets in foul trouble early in basketball or a pitcher has an off night in softball and the results can change drastically. Just get there and give yourself a shot and see what happens

What I have learned over the last few years of watching LSU come up just short of winning a national title in gymnastics is that “Oklahoma performs pretty good routines flawlessly while LSU performs phenomenal routines pretty good.” And the judges reward the less challenging routines that are performed excellently over the very challenging routines that are performed with a few faults.

That speaks volumes about the judging in the sport, because the LSU team is absolutely stacked this year. If it's not this year, I honestly don't know when it will be.

South Carolina had 1 bad game last year. Thats all it takes!
Hypothetically are stupid, but I don't think that they would have beaten LSU in the championship game last year. They were on fire from outside the arc and they would have done the same against USC.

that's not true. The season scores a cumulative. Once they this nationals, it all resets. All it take is 2 of 6 in one event to struggle. I don't think that will happen.
