Golf team starting strong

[CINCYMETJACKET]

So, if we stay at #5 (looking very likely) do we go up against #4 tomorrow? Three teams still close for #2-4 spots.

Yes. It would be a typical 8 seed format. #1 vs #8, #2 vs #7, etc.

What is wrong with Lamprecht? - has really struggled this tournament. And starts off with a double bogey today.

2 over on the first hole, 6 under on the next 17.

Steelman has company with that UF kid 1 back and making a spirited run. Steelman found a fairway divot, then the greenside bunker on 17.

So, the teams from a certain conference that have no shot (pun intended) at this point???

 

[GT33]

oh no, Steelman has a perfect 135 on 18 and nearly puts it in the drink. Leave a long par putt to tie for 1st with the UF kid still out there, plus GT backs into Fsu if he misses.

 

[GT33]

and he missed. Ouch what a way to finish. Feel bad for him, so close.

Correction- he still has a chance if UF kid bogey's something

Pretty much everybody but Lamprecht fell apart down the stretch. Can’t feel too sorry for Steelman - had it well within his control and let it slip away.

 

[g0lftime]

If he went flag hunting on 18, it was a huge mental mistake from 135 yards. Just hit the middle of the green and try to make a decent length putt. Not good course management. Bruce should have been in his ear. He will regret those last 3 holes for a long time. Hope he bows up and gets it together for match play.

 

[CINCYMETJACKET]

Well, it's a GT team thing now! Let's win it!

 

[CINCYMETJACKET]

Are we 5 or 6? How are ties broken? Do we beat Pepperdine or Illinois tomorrow?

 

[GT33]

You guys are too hard on Steelman. Yes, he could have played more aggressively but he did have some bad luck. On 18, he did what I would have done, he played to win. It didn't work out. I'd have no regrets on that shot.

 

[AUFC]

So we get Pepperdine tomorrow in match play? To hell with the Waves!

The good news is Steelman is probably pissed and Lamprecht got his **** together. Let's go win this thing.

 

[78pike]

Of the final 8 teams 4 are from the ACC, 1 SEC, 1 Pac 12, 1 Big 10 and 1 whatever Pepperdine is. And none of the ACC teams play each other tomorrow.

The guys looked really tired there at the end. This is a lot of golf and, after so many rounds in a row, it gets really hard to keep the swing thoughts from taking over.

 

[AUFC]

Definitely would say we're the underdogs in this match play format given how top-heavy we've been this week but good guys are up 3-2 with all 5 matchups now on the course. Christo took an early lead but has dropped 3 holes in a row.

 

[Lone Star Jacket]

Even so far - 3 tied, Lamprecht way behind, Steelman way ahead. Good to see Ross apparently hasn’t let yesterday’s late fade carry over to today.

Meanwhile, Biondi followed up his individual title by getting blown out 6&5 in his match play today for Florida.

And didn’t win a single hole. Why couldn’t he have done that yesterday?
