In track, entire teams don’t qualify for the National meet. Each event has certain qualifications, Times, etc. that have to be met in order to qualify. The teams with the most qualifiers are normally the teams in the running for the national title.
The National rankings are based on this criteria. In Men’s, Florida is #2 and Arkansas #3 nationally in the poll. Normally a top 5 team has a legit shot and enough qualifiers to win the national championship.
