We’ve got a flurry of simultaneous good ones today. Meanwhile, EMU’s meet had to cancel the live stream because of staffing issues. And once again, George Washington has been forced to cancel a meet as tomorrow’s dual against New Hampshire is postponed. Sigh.

Also remember those scores from last night? Me too.

Touch has started for Cal and Arizona. Scoreboard says no Perea in lineups for Cal. Though we do see Watterson’s name on the list this time, in for Schank on beam.

Can someone explain why Arizona is the Wildcats but their thing is “bear down”? Are you cats or bears? Make up your mind.

Two Pac-12 meets simultaneous, so it will be like a quad. Then we get Minnesota/Iowa in the mix.

Just 8 teams competing in the ghost town today, so there should be a chance to check in on all of them. Initial focus will be on the Maryland Terrapins against the Penn State Matchmakers Nittany Lions.

Bowling Green meet in touch warmup now. Will we see full lineups today? BG hasn’t been able to put up a full team score in the last two meets.

Bowling Green starts off with a Tsuk lay on vault from bachner, pace back, some pike, not bad. 9.525

Pace back on a double tuck dismount on bars for CMU. We’re not getting IDs for those gymnasts at least so far. Bustello. 9.800

Marquee Meet

[5] Oklahoma, Temple @ [8] Denver

Sunday, February 7 – 2:00pm MT – Denver stream ($)

The season’s first clash between Oklahoma and Denver is supposed to pit these two hitting, high-scoring juggernauts against each other in a preview of a national semifinal (or even final as in 2019), but rather we’re greeted by two teams who just burped up a 195.850 and are eager to look around the room and be like, “Who did that?”
