2019 NCAA Men’s Formchart Update — Tech/Houston Fight Tighter After Dec

With Divine Oduduru running the fastest Q times in both the 100 (equal with Hakim Sani Brown) and 200, Texas Tech remains the men’s team favorite, albeit a narrow one. (KIRBY LEE/IMAGE OF SPORT)

COMING IN TO AUSTIN, the NCAA men’s team-title race looked to be a 2-way battle. After the finish of the decathlon at Mike Myers Stadium on Thursday night it’s still a 2-way battle, but with one big difference: the team chasing Texas Tech is now Houston, not LSU. The Cougars had a superb first day and the Tigers did not. Meanwhile, Wes Kittley’s Red Raiders performed about as suspected, but found their projected margin of victory shrinking from 10 to 5 after Wednesday action and then to a single point once deca results rolled in.

Here’s a recast of the final pre-meet formchart, taking into account both finished events (marked with ¶) and prelims which knocked contenders out of others. Points in parentheses are those banked in first-day finals.
