📡 GYM TIDE: Second meet in a row where the ladies face the #1 team in the nation.

[TerryP]

With everyone's attention on football this past weekend I imagine only a few were paying attention to the ladies first meet of the season. Last Friday night they were in Norman where they lost the meet 196.700-197.750
The Sooners had opened the season ranked #1.

Tomorrow night at 7:30 CT the Tide hosts current #1 LSU in Coleman. The meet will be broadcast on the SEC Network.

How is Bama playing a different number one this week of Oklahoma didn't lose to Bama last week?

I believe they base the rankings off of their weekly scores in the meets.

Exactly.

OU was pre-season #1, but LSU's score last week was higher. Bama started out ranked #3 and enters this week as #4. You'll see how the scores and rankings work here:

Off topic (Bama) a bit...

I'm sitting here in the oil change garage, and they have the SEC Network on the tube. The barner/Jawja gym meet is on. A Jawja gal did something I've never seen before her floor routine. She began in something like an IT band stretch pose and then (did) a chalkdrop. A double handful onto the floor and then just took off. Odd...
