How would they possibly overturn that?

[Mr. PeanutButter]

Wow. Lots of upsets right off the bat. Cannon goes down

That is his name.

"His name is pronounced MEH-KALE, NOT the traditional "MICHAEL""

Did not know that. Thank you.

If this happens it might go down at the biggest brick flub in ncaa history lol. Especially if Ragusin goes on to win.

Ragusin has gotta wipe the blood off his mouth

It’s good to reward a wrestlers season, but maybe strength of schedule and conference should be considered? If I see a single digit seed from a FCS school against an ACC or Big10 school I go ahead and mark the upset. 

What about when a lower seed from Air Force sticks a higher seeded Michigan guy?  How do strength of schedule and conference play in there?

[CHROMEBIRD]

At first I thought Ragusin was complaining that he was getting choked out but that would be insane if they overturn the pin for the knee brace grab

[pawrestler]

Fall stands in Ragusin match 

[Voice of the Quakers]

Well, that's 10 minutes of our lives we'll never have back.

[Perry]

Did I just understand that Michigan challenged to say they illegally pulled on a knee brace while getting pinned so the fall shouldn't count and it should only be one point extra? If so wow...

[BaldAt23]

Picked Ragusin in my fantasy over Mendes. Kicking myself. 

[CHROMEBIRD]

Ridiculous rule. Now anytime a guy is getting pinned, just grab the opponent's headgear and take the penalty before the ref blows the whistle

Like I said, single digit seeds are only at play. When they’re both in the teens or 20s it doesn’t count.

That doesn't stop the pin.  Only the Air Force coach throwing a brick while his guy was pinning created the review.  Glad the refs let common sense rule.

The number 7 seed (Kaylor) also just went down

6 and 7 upsets at 125 result of bad seedings. Nbthise guys seeded higher than mckee. 

[Wrestleknownothing]

From Flo. I feel vindicated and validated:

PINFALL ALERT: Kai Orine of NC State and the viral video of him celebrating an ACC title pins Gable Strickland of Lock Haven, sending precious bonus points to the Wolfpack. NC State now in first place with a whopping four team points.
