Rumor out there that there is an over officious ASCE judge going to screw UF Steel bridge team from Nationals over a meeting technicality. This even thought hey kicked ass and placed 1st. Any truth to this????????

We haven't heard anything about it. Hopefully they can attend nationals. We're looking forward to the competition.

Without knowing anything about it, I have now heard this same rumor in two different places. Perhaps it is true that UF will not be going to Nationals.

UF didn't follow the rules and they were disqualified. You need to change the poste results, as UF didn't take 1st place as you suggest.

I suggest nothing. I report facts as read on the internet, which is always true. And anyway, who cares about the SE conference results, that was almost a month aggggGGGOOOOOOO Holy stick welding it's already 2012! Yep. That was last year. An ENTIRE year has passed since UF cheated or did whatever they did that made the people stand as one and gator chomp them out of the runnings... Grudge much?
