Production via Wyatt Barnsley On this week’s episode of The Stride Report Podcast, Ben and Garrett continue unveiling TSR’s 2026 NCAA cross country team rankings while first reacting to the NCAA being granted a stay that temporarily pauses the July 31st preliminary injunction. The guys then dive back into the rankings, breaking down Florida, Syracuse, Notre Dame, Michigan State, Northern Arizona and Eastern Kentucky on the men’s side while analyzing Wake Forest, Virginia, Florida, Utah, Oklahoma State, and South Carolina for the women. From potential podium dark horses to teams with plenty left to prove, the guys continue working their way toward the nation’s top contenders as the 2026 cross country season approaches.
