    New format totally screwed Oklahoma State from winning the NC.

    Congrats to the Aggies....they won it by using the new format...oh well.

    Take notes Fields!!!!! You have had awesome golfers for some time now and you haven't gotten close to an NC and now you have in-state rivals as NC champions to compete for recruits.

    We are going to see A&M's hard work to compete with TEXAS pay off in a few more weeks in track!

    This will definitely bring up some questions about format. But in terms of promoting the sport, it was a roaring success. Lots of drama all around.
    Personally, I liked the old format better, and not just because aggy won under the new one. If it is possible to have a level playing field, why not just do it rather than come up with a contrived bracket scheme?
    Anyway, aggy played lights out. Congrats to them.

    First NC for an Aggie men's team since 1939. At this pace, it will take them 1,020 years to catch up to our 19 men's national titles.

    On a side note, why am I not surprised Cuernos_Largos started this threat? You can't wait to boast about Aggie success.

    Can someone explain the new format and how it resulted in OSU getting screwed out of a NC? I obviously haven't been paying attention.

    OK STATE was clearly in the lead after three rounds....after those three rounds, the top 8 teams advance to round 4 and the leader after that round would win the NC......OK STATE would probably win it using the old format.

    the new format.....the top eight teams advance and they are placed in brackets....kind of like the big 12 baseball tournament. Somebody edged OK State and A&M just got lucky and played lights out to edge out whoever, but had they gotten OSU in the finals instead of arkansas....they would have been toast.

    It's cool....I rather had an NC in the state of TEXAS than an NC in the state of oklahoma.....I am just saying the new format is kinda strange.

    But according to them, it doesn't count. Because Texas wins NCs in swimming and diving and those don't count, somehow. So obviously this doesn't count either.
