Alabama is competing in its 33rd consecutive NCAA Championships during tonight's second session beginning at 7 p.m. Fort Worth, Texas is the host, so it basically means no real home-site advantage for any of the teams, although it still may feel that way for Oklahoma.
For those who don't know 12 teams advanced to the NCAA meet, with the top three in each semifinal session advancing to Saturday night's Super Six, when the national team title will be decided (it's essentially one shot, winner takes all).
Florida and Utah tied for first during the afternoon session, with Stanford third. That eliminated Michigan, Georgia and UCLA.
Update 1: Alabama advanced with a second-place finish: Final: 1 Oklahoma 197.400; 2 Alabama 197.100; 3 Auburn 197.075; 4 Nebraska 196.675; 5 LSU 196.550; 6 Oregon State 195.875. Beam killed LSU, but Oklahoma and Alabama struggled on it as well.
Update 2: Alabama placed fourth as Florida won its third straight national title, edging Utah and Oklahoma.
