Truly incredible depth in the DI Men's Track sector this year. From the relays to the Men's 100M. Florida's times this season put them in the mix of world class efforts among all nations.
@@Mjmj101 yes everyone is wearing them bro 😂 every company has superspikes now. They're always sold out everywhere. Show me a high level track meet in the last two years without everyone having them
For my entire life I have NEVER EVER been interested in track and field, but i'm in my mid 30s now and in these last couple years I have to say that I'm pretty big fan now. These races are exhilarating!
I'm 53.. I think I fell in love with it about 3 or 4 years ago. I have a special love for the middle distances (1500 to 3k) but really find every race so exciting. Funny thing is I was never a runner. /shrug It sure is fun to watch.
I had some interest in it while attending the University of Arkansas for obvious reasons, but after I graduated I really lost track interest until this year when my daughter started running track in Jr. High School. Going to those meets was fun then we would go to high school meets just to see what was out there and living in Houston we could easily make it over to Austin for the high school state championships and now the NCAA championships. Top level track and field meets are incredible sporting events.
I was on mile relay in collegiate back in 1975 well the winning time in NCAA at that time was like 3:02 or so. And seeing teams running 2:57 and some change that out of this world . I watched the 400 and I was expecting Willie to win but his teammate won. I said wow 1 2 in the 400. I remember Jeremy Wariner and his teammate clocked a 44 something at the University of Oklahoma Big 12 championship and they won the mile relay as well as the National Championship. And Baylor was in the hunt now it’s Florida. That’s great recruiting and coaching. Hats off the Gators. LB June 12, 2023 Monday
It should be a push for the U.S to have TWO separate teams....We have alot of talent that'll end up going to waste because it's nearly impossible to get out of our Olympic & WC trials.
Excellent run - Thanks for posting this, my cable network played all events but this one and went to ESPN-U, which I don't have. I was disappointed with them but happy to see that I see it on here
The women in pro are way more exciting than men pro. 100m men pro sucks. 200m great because Noah. 400m is pretty trash...everyone running 44 flat and the 400m collegiate winner could definitely medal if he were to run in the championships this year
The Pros are all competing for themselves and are wearing the same sponsors jerseys. This is why the Olympics and World Championships are much better. Athletes are competing for their country just like collegians are competing for their school.
Imagine if Willie would ran through… you can slow down at the line . Run through it like u still have more to go because u never know who’s sneaking up on you… great sun but could’ve been even better
Greatest 4x400 race you'll ever find every year is at the NCAA Championships. No Olympic or World Championship final ever matches this race on average times or talent.
I've thought that it has to do with the fact that real teams of people who practice together all year long have better transitions. I'm shocked with how bad some of the baton transitions are in the Olympics. Because they're just a bunch of strangers who run fast.
My high school 4X440 team was a precipitously good team. Louis (Duck) Johnson did the first leg. Henry (Rookie) Dament ran the 2nd leg, Tomas ( Ratchet ) ran the Tri-Leg while Randall (T-Bone ) Sander the anchor leg and ran the 14th fastest race in school history in 3:34 placing eighth place. Epic!!
Please tell me that Arizona State got disqualified for impeding with the first hand-off. Runners had to split to either side while he just wandered on the track.
I thought UCLA was going to be the one that chase Florida to that NCAA MARK since they were the first school west of The Mississippi that went under 3:00 at the beginning of the season.
@@ur_moms_favorite Got cha. But if you put two marbles in one hand and threw them together at a wall 20 feet from you, they would hit the wall more than 1/100th of a second differently. Yet somehow five teams passing batons and running an entire mile finished 4/100ths of a second from the first to the fifth team.
There is a guy on LET'S RUN and he is telling me about sprinters,hurdlers who are entering the transfer portal and Florida is cleaning up along with Houston.
I have a couple questions I don't understand. 1. Do they start in the same spot as the open 400? 2. Why don't they stay in their lanes for the whole race?
Georgie Georgia Georgia what’s going on?? Fall from comforting for the top has been disappointing at best this season for any of the men’s relays.. Coaching needs to be assessed 7th…????? Athletes out of place in events helping others sacrificing individual performances.. wow!!
Elijah Godwin the monster lead off leg that runs for Georgia got hurt in the 4x1😢. So sad, he is a 400 specialist and they have been using him in shorter sprints. I was so worried this was going to happen. They don’t have the depth to replace him in the 4x4
Arizona anchor shouldve dropped into lane 1 and got behind florida into the turn then tried to pass on the str8.....why do athletes continue to try to pass on the turn

Florida does not qualify for world's best times since they have Nigerian imports.

What a great race, I'm glad they recorded it on the original iPhone.
Florida 4x4 is unstoppable. 3- 44's and 1- 43
They have recruited a new guy Jenoah McKiver from Iowa via the transfer portal.
@@dwightlove3704 never heard of him. Well check him out
@@kwilson4992 McKiver was a high school hot shot from the state of NC.

indeed , so much talent in the Usa right now ....few spots on the Us teams
They could have a B team run the 1st Round and semis

I get Florida anchor was tired but man it could’ve been slightly faster with a lean also scary close
Robinson was not going to let Willie slip away from him
Willie had just enough to hold Robinson off in this historic race.
College is much more exciting than the pro meets right now
Our collegians are virtually pros now.
@@henrybrowne7248 Boom!
The women in pro are way more exciting than men pro. 100m men pro sucks. 200m great because Noah. 400m is pretty trash...everyone running 44 flat and the 400m collegiate winner could definitely medal if he were to run in the championships this year
Because the top sprinters are barely running
The Pros are all competing for themselves and are wearing the same sponsors jerseys. This is why the Olympics and World Championships are much better. Athletes are competing for their country just like collegians are competing for their school.
Patterson couldn’t have run 43.9 on the second leg- notice that the guy from AZ state caught him!
Yeah that’s what I was thinking. Otherwise that AZ guy must have a crazy split.
Dr. Boyce Watkins watches track and field!? Let's go 💪🏾
@@asanders20100 ikr I would’ve never guessed😅
The second runners got the baton at the same time. Florida runner went out hard then got reeled back in.
Jeremiah curry ran 43.3!!!! That’s why he caught Patterson
*Boy AZ, wasnt there to play, i didnt even think they was going to even be a factor!* Gator are beast tho!
They are showing that they were no joke they are among the best indoors!!!!
Always exciting when the overall team win comes down to the 4x400m race. It gets everybody on their feet.
Imagine if Willie would ran through… you can slow down at the line . Run through it like u still have more to go because u never know who’s sneaking up on you… great sun but could’ve been even better
2:57.66 would have been the winning time

@@wymple09 especially Wisconsin n' Illinois 😳🤯

Greatest 4x400 race you'll ever find every year is at the NCAA Championships. No Olympic or World Championship final ever matches this race on average times or talent.
That's because most of those guys are from other countries and will represent them in the Olympics
Remember, lots of these athletes aren't American. There are Nigerians, caribbean runners, etc....
@@arsenioseslpodcast3143except they are. You can have dual citizenship and run for another country

@Stay Curious true but while you may be # 20 here in the 400m you can be #1 or 2 in your respected country
Ryan Willie almost gave that race away by slowing down at the end.
yes, i dont understand slowing down before the finish line. The Ar. State runner ran all the way through and almost caught him.
Go Gators 🐊 This title was more challenging because Arkansas was the overall favorite, and Arizona St was right there in the 4x400. Back-to-Back!
Awesome race... those boys were moving
Man Florida's anchor almost let up a smidge soon.
I was always told not to slow down before the finish line this is what I see 😮
Give the Arizona St splits!!! Come on!! The fastest split was probably by Arizona St.
Yep.
Thé Guy behind Jacory Paterson was amazing
My high school 4X440 team was a precipitously good team. Louis (Duck) Johnson did the first leg. Henry (Rookie) Dament ran the 2nd leg, Tomas ( Ratchet ) ran the Tri-Leg while Randall (T-Bone ) Sander the anchor leg and ran the 14th fastest race in school history in 3:34 placing eighth place.

Crazy how bad morales opening leg was for georgia compared to the competition, now hes the best in the nation
I talked about this race on sports radio WFAN NY on The Keith McPherson Show.
Just for some context on the USA's 400 meter depth...this result of 2:57.71 would have placed them 4th at the Tokyo Olympics.
Congratulations to Az St for their NEW CONFERENCE RECORD.
Justin Robinson made that boy from Florida run!!!! He put the fear of God in that boy lol lol lol lol
Robinson was a high school hot shot
Arizona State! Any of those guys coming back next year?
I think at least 2 of the relay team members are coming back. They also signed my friends son who ran 46.2 to break the state record in AZ this year.
I think only 1 was a senior. Possibly 2
Us Floridans just a different breed 🤷🏾♂️
Please tell me that Arizona State got disqualified for impeding with the first hand-off. Runners had to split to either side while he just wandered on the track.
What happened to Georgia
Ran out of gas
wow.. Gators are tough- Congrats on the National Championship
The video quality is sobad. This looks like a race in the early 2000s
Lol
5 sec teams. WOW. Shows you how SEC is so much better than everybody else
Congratulations to UCLA!!! 3rd is a great finish
I thought UCLA was going to be the one that chase Florida to that NCAA MARK since they were the first school west of The Mississippi that went under 3:00 at the beginning of the season.
NCAA, why show the winners in the screenshot? Why not let us enjoy the race without knowing who will win?
The Nation Of India would have finished 3rd in this race with the time of 2:59.05 they ran in the Semifinals of the 🌎 CHAMPIONSHIPS.
Intriguing Race...💪
Arizona St second leg need some love from the commentators 😂
I wonder if things would've been different if Mathew boling went to a different school
Most definitely, him and Godwin have it so bad because Georgias sprint coach is no good
Wait, so ASU’s time is 04/100ths of ONE SECOND off the Record, but it makes them FIFTH, All-Time?
Off the collegiate record. When they say all time they don’t mean just college
@@ur_moms_favorite Got cha.
But if you put two marbles in one hand and threw them together at a wall 20 feet from you, they would hit the wall more than 1/100th of a second differently. Yet somehow five teams passing batons and running an entire mile finished 4/100ths of a second from the first to the fifth team.
How much of these times are due to some of these guys having covid years. Some of these dudes are older than 22 still running college track.
I hope Az St comes to the Texas Relays next year and back up this great race.
Texas Relays are lit.
@@fudgenuggets405 Next Year They will be CRAZY LIT!!!!!! THE COUNTDOWN HAS BEGUN!!!!!

These speeds are unreal. They are definitely taking drugs
There is a guy on LET'S RUN and he is telling me about sprinters,hurdlers who are entering the transfer portal and Florida is cleaning up along with Houston.
Wait, what? Patterson ran 43.9 on the 2nd leg and was losing ground? Who was the second Az. St. athlete and how fast did he go?
That's what I was saying
Jeremiah Curry ( 2nd leg AZ state) ran 43.3 , he had run 43.55 on the anchor in the prelims
ASU ASU ASU 👏🏽😊👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Justin Robinson is an animal.
Dont gators usually run in a zig zag?
What is georgias coach doing
Their star lead off runner Elijah Godwin got hurt in the 4x1. They don’t have the depth to replace him.
This Florida anchor backing off the last 5m....come on!
Amazing time.
Florida and Az St would have finished 2nd&3rd in the World Championships
looks like it was filmed in 2002. cmon man
NCAA must be using a calculator to capture this footage
2,57,7...un gran tempo
go bruins!
Arizona St, Clemson both established CONFERENCE RECORDS but everyone said they set SCHOOL RECORDS.
Faster tracks, better shoes, and drugs. That’s why it’s crazy
ASU almost...Dude ran through the tape and Willie almost let up a bit too soon!!
Arizona State??? I didn't know they had those caliber of runners
Glad seeing Arizona State up there challenging. Georgia got screwed. Outside lane is the Kiss of Death.
They didn't stand a chance in that lane. Its awful
Please see my reply to Vanderwilder around here some place. It wasn't the lane.
I think they were missing their normal lead off man. It's the same guy who lead off at the World Championships last year.
What? Georgia?
My question too🤦🏼♂️🤯 smh!!
Please see my reply to Vanderwilder near here.
@@henrybrowne7248 To my point, putting Elijah in the 4x100 relay was very unwise.
@@gba1514 Really? You could see him blowing up? Judging from his crazy form, now, I might see that . . .
@@henrybrowne7248 Even if he ran his leg, the team did not have a single chance to take third place. As a result, 4x400 also failed.
I personally think the commentary could’ve been better.
I have a couple questions I don't understand.
1. Do they start in the same spot as the open 400?
2. Why don't they stay in their lanes for the whole race?
1. No the start is line is different.
2. They cut in after 3 turns because staying in lanes for 1600m would be crazy long staggered start lines
Looks like anchor leg slowed before the finish line. Hate that. RUN THROUGH the line! Then slow down.

They were never going to win the 4x100. LSU and others were better all season
@@lilcourtny08 true. They really didn’t have a chance and one of their best runners gets injured in the process 🤦🏾♀️

What’s with the retro look for the visuals? 🥴😫
it's probably due to the heat, it can mess with the footage.
I wished that this was '24 instead of '23
Nigeria 🇳🇬 Bamidele
Am I petty for thinking he should have ran through the line and lowered the record by two tenth more?
jACORY RAN 43.9 BUT WAS WALKED. WHO WAS THAT MAN AND WHAT WAS HIS TIME?
Congrats Gators
If you know anything about high school track and fast kids, these times are insane.
Arizona anchor shouldve dropped into lane 1 and got behind florida into the turn then tried to pass on the str8.....why do athletes continue to try to pass on the turn
Sheeeeeeesh!
UCLA 3rd leg, somebody tell me his time please
Robinson ran too wide on the turn. He should've stayed close to the rail and moved out to pass with 100 to go.
Wow
I wonder how much does Matt Boling have. He didn’t qualify for any individual finals.
If floridas 2nd leg ran 43.9 Az 2nd leg had to run 43 low
AZ second leg ran the anchor in the prelims and split 43.55 so it wouldn’t surprise me honestly if he ran faster than floridas 2nd leg
Alabama second leg was horrible accepting the hand off
Georgia fell off hard.
No idea what RG3 purpose is on this broadcast, except acting like a Goober. Should have let Dan do the special commentary.
poor georgia
GO GATORS
Matthew Boling is cooked man. He always burns himself out when it’s actually time to run important races at this point in the season
Olympic times.
You got to lean? Athletes that will get u a lose
Dan O'Brien and RGIII are both annoying. We can get any better representation...? 🤦🏿♂️ Seriously?
