The Sooners need to score 197.850 or higher to raise their current NQS. Anything above 197.950 will improve their NQS to 197.765, their maximum NQS.
2. UCLA: 197.455
Road score 1: 197.950
Road score 2: 197.550

Home/Road Score 3: 197.550
LSU does not yet have enough road meets to be able to drop the 196.600 at Arkansas. A 197.550 or greater at Kentucky this weekend would allow LSU to move back ahead of UCLA regardless of what UCLA scores. Note: LSU's last three meets at Kentucky they scored 196.025 (2019), 196.800 (2021) and 196.575 (2023).
4. Utah 197.235

Home/Road Score 1: 197.675
Home/Road Score 2: 197.300
Home/Road Score 3: 196.800
Utah is hosting Denver and their highest NQS score possible is 197.465 if they score 198.000 or higher. Their next chance to drop the 196.975 won't be until March 8.
5. Florida 197.190
Road score 1: 197.575
Road score 2: 197.450
Road score 3: 196.625

A chance to drop our 196.625 road score. We have to wait another week to drop the 196.675 home score. A 197.600 lifts our NQS to 197.385. If we score 198.125 or higher, our NQS is 197.490

To see the top 36, go to Balance Beam Situation

 

On the All Things Gymnastics podcast, the twins went to the LSU-Oklahoma meet, so most of the podcast was them talking about their experience. I'll save you the annoying Giddy over LSU nuance and give you the highlights:

The pressure seemed to get to Oklahoma on Floor and Beam. They were having problems landing in both routines and a little shaky on Beam. It could be from the fatigue from Oklahoma not used to being tested every week like when they were in the Big 12. They would waltz through the regular season not facing real pressure, and had a straight path to the regionals. Oklahoma would have an off meet and still win. In the SEC, they are having to face more pressure every week and can't afford to be off a single meet. Kindler wanted to make a statement with winning both the regular season and SEC Championship titles, but now her best hope is tying for the regular season. As of right now, LSU and Oklahoma are the clear top two teams in the NCAA, and LSU is emerging as the frontrunner for repeating. UCLA has really improved since their first meet, and will make some noise in postseason. Florida has been looking very off, and unless they really improve, will likely fail to win the natty again.
KJ Kindler compared the Sprouts quad meet to the national championships in terms of the caliber of teams, attention and arena setting saying, "It's a great experience to have in your pocket." She was happy to have the chance to see how her gymnasts performed "under this kind of pressure" early in the season.

 

Let's Go Gators! If the girls can focus, we can win this meet.

Almost time..

Awful fall for Anya

 

Unattractive outfits for ou

 

9.85 for OU’s first vault with a huge step seems mighty high

 

Amazing bars routine for Selina!

 

What was so bad with selenas routine?

 

? They gave Selina a 9.875? That’s crazy

 

I thought Selena's and Skylar scores were too low
And a couple of vaults with some steps and hops were too high

 

That's what I wanted to know
