For USA, their Baseball team is University of Iowa, women's Basketball is University of Maryland, men's Basketball is Purdue University, Track and Field is University of Houston, Tennis is UCLA, and Water Polo has many players from Stanford University

Are those good colleges/universities in those respective (team) sports?

Artistic Gymnastics entry lists are out which means @thiago_simoes can analyze and tell us who will win the medals, because he's rather good at that https://www.2017.taipei/atosLinks/51dc43ec-e628-4307-82e1-233305842972?00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000

Quick look on NCAA's website suggests Maryland's women's basketball is one of the best and Purdue's men's basketball is definitely rather good as well, interesting.

Purdue men are good, but I can't say they are sure gold medalists.

These are solid but not the best teams in those sports, the two basketball teams for example were top 16 and top 32 in this year's NCAA tournaments

Well, I'm not @thiago_simoes, but Canada should fight for the podium in women's team, and I'd expect Ukraine to clinch men's title.

Petro Pakhnyuk transferred back to Ukraine?

I guess it's hard to know where these teams are in terms of performance, given that basically they never play against each other (unlike 'normal' national teams). It would have been nicer from a betting perspective if USA sent some Division 3 teams again and bookmakers would think 'oh they're Americans, they're really good!', opening a good chance to make the bookies poorer :d

You notice that this specific link goes to a page that's not all integrated in that awful Taipei 2017 website, right? That means it should in theory be possible to go to the general schedule/results/athletes page too, without using the one integrated in the Taipei 2017 website...just gotta figure out how :p 

 

In case I'm not clear: many multi-sports events have the sportresult.com thing embedded/integrated in their website, but you can simply go to eventxxx.sportresult.com and get rid of the official website, leaving only the schedule/results page, like this:

    • She's quite well-known in the world of alpine skiing, and besides, she's had several serious injuries and always returned to a high level. Now, for me, she has a chance to win a medal in the giant slalom on OG.

    • Here you have statesmen and old leaders that's why we were the leaders back then, and the USSR fell apart.   And who said I support Trump? I have never even been in USA in my life... Personally, I think he's a clown, but he unfortunately show the decline of our entire Western World- of which the USA was a leader for a long time.    
    • Latvia seriously attacking the anti-record in WJCh history with the fewest shots on goal in a game    4 SOG after 48 minutes is really quite atrocious stat  
    • My personal favorite in Canadian athlete is Valerie Grenier. She's so likeable and sweet
    • Canada had a great home-boost in 2010. Unfortunately, that's not the case in us – look at 2006... We won fewer medals in Torino 2006 than in 2002 (11 vs. 13)
    • Short-track is unpredictable and ridden by bullshit refs who give out weird penalties and home-advantage calls to favour the home athletes. Women’s hockey, we aren’t beating the US this time around, the rivalry series went horribly and I’d be happy if we can hang on to silver. It was that bad.    Freestyle skiing team, a lot of them have been getting injured our ski cross contenders (Hoffos, who was in the best form of her career, Sherret), Kingsbury, Oldham... Then you have Blouin, and reigning World Champion Liam Brearley in snowboarding, 2024 world champion in skeleton Hallie Clarke, and 2023 world champion in ski jumping Alexandria Loutitt who are all out injured for the season.   I don’t think you have anything to worry about, Italy will have a nice home boost and win 5-6 golds, but yeah that would’ve been pretty bad for us even before our entire team getting injured. I still view it as a disappointment either way. 
    • Do you have short track, freestyle, snowboardcross, hockey x2? You'll definitely win 5-6 gold medals. If you want, I'll gladly sign now for Italy to win 5-6 gold medals in February... Canada has at least 3 girls competing for medals in the long distances, and we only have 1 Lollobirigida- also quite old.
    • team is seriously in shambles and I wouldn’t be surprised if we only win a few bronzes or slightly better at Milano-Cortina…   Our men are nonexistent, Dubreuil still is awful coming back from injury and nowhere near his 2021-22 form, he’d be lucky to get a top 16 finish. Jan-Bloemen is old and his 5,000m WC podium was a fluke, at best it’ll be a top 8 finish in each event. For the women, Weidemann won’t beat Groenewoud/Wiklund in the 5km/10km and Blondin with Groenewoud (probably, she beats her all the time) or Mangianello in the mass start, and Maltais can only aim for a minor medal at best. We don’t even have our team pursuit anymore, used to be by far the best and now we’re getting beaten by Netherlands/Japan…
