re: Remove

looks like denver is gonna win lol

I feel slightly bad for Oklahoma cos they had a rough meet but do think they have been overscored all season long

I don't understand the vault scores Webb continues to get, the landings are always out of control (hop and saluting while off balanced) yet one judges automatically goes 9.95 or 10.

Watching Kentucky on bars makes me so mad that we have so many dismount issues! They had amazing dismounts, almost everyone stuck cold with their chests up and the technique was spot on. Beautiful double layouts, an insane full twisting double layout and a full out tuck that was absolutely nailed. Why are we having problems with our dismounts? It isn’t just a couple of girls this year, either. We’ve seen it with other gymnasts.

Agreed. If you can't do the dismount without form issues or with decent form, you really should not be doing it.... Even when Dunne and Alyona are "sticking it" they are still gonna get hit for form, the question is how much will judges take off this post season.


-Bryant needs to half her dismount to stick it easier (I assume they will next season)
-Let Dunne do her other dismount (full twisting double back which she trained in fall)
-Alyona is a special case where a double tuck is warranted. Her double layout was always major trouble as an elite, not sure why we thought it would be different here.

Brock and Dean are doing their best but ideally they shouldn't be out there but we have no one else right now due to injuries. Unless Kai or Elena miraculously make an appearance this post season.

Anyone know what happened to Oklahoma - I couldn’t watch but was following on bbs for a time (through lapinta’s floor) and thought they had it well in hand?

They made some mistakes on floors, and then Webb iced the cake having a 9.9 floor routine turn into a 9.800 by stepping out of bounds on her ending pose.

Their vault was average and one of their big scorers fell and OU had to count a low vault score. Denver held on

Will there be a thread on TR tonight for the Championship?

That was a legit question TB357. Wasn't sure you would worry with it tonight.

I’m ok with the loss. Bama just caught fire tonight and we left a TON on the table. Poor UF - they look a mess.

Proud of the girls. Need to clean up beam and landings on floor but overall happy. Shows this team is able to cope under pressure. Bama had meet of their lives and some scoring things lol but feel we could easily beat them if we are fully on. Don’t feel we have shown our best this season but this was a step in the right direction for sure. Feel more confident that we can get a natty after tonight’s performance. Florida I really don’t get it with them. They should be winning secs with the quality on their team and the natty in fact but their mental game just seems so weak? Maybe they will get it together but something is off.
