PRCA Bubble Watch: 24 With A Shot And 2 Season Leader Titles In Jeopardy

There is only one weekend left in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association 2019 rodeo season, and that means competitors looking to seal their National Finals Rodeo spots or win the coveted season leader title are in one final push to make that happen. The regular season ends September 30, so that means there are just 19 rodeos and five days left in the schedule.

Even with only one weekend left, there are many variables in play – travel conditions, varying entry numbers from year to year, and of course the ever-present luck of the draw – but with that in mind, we’ve tried to calculate absolutely everyone that has a chance to make their NFR ambitions happen. (For a list of which rodeos these competitors on or near the bubble are competing in, check out the PRCA’s bubble watch story HERE.)

On the other end of the spectrum, we also had a look of which season leader titles are already wrapped up, and the two – potentially three – season leader titles who could be in jeopardy if the stars align for the No. 2 competitors that are chasing the top spot.
