"It's good that we've done it once before so the freshmen know how it works, and we know how it works, how long and when we'll do each event."
Marsden said he also likes the rotation, and he added that the bars on the podium at Georgia will be anchored to the floor more tightly, like at home, than the ones at Minnesota, which are held down by bottles.
