I'll take Gomez.

[Rassling]

Gomez 5 - 3

[Pinnacle]

I got Gomez. Hopefully via a huge throw or something.

Could it be another 20 second double under hook throw / pin by Gomez via 2022 Big10 semis?

Ridge. Gomez is like Andonian - everybody gets their peter in bunches all excited for some big throw, then he’ll drop the ball half the time when it matters. 

[Dogbone]

Lovett. 

 

[Southend]

Is it a sure thing, it will come off? One athlete doesn’t have to partake to maintain rank.

Can Ridge predict what Gomez will try before Gomez gets the idea?

And you are putting how much money on which duck? 

[flyingcement]

Lovett didn't wrestle the last match against Illinois - not sure why though

Like your PSU duck predictions from last week. Based on nothing and meaningless, but said like you know something. You never tire of the bit do you?

[strange_daze]

Gomez is wrestling well right now. He's dangerous in the tie-up for sure, but he's also got a pretty wide arsenal on his feet (including a super-slick single that can come up into a body lock). I'd probably take him the dual, but I see more potential for Ridge to go deep at nationals.

LET'S GO IDAHO!

IDAHO IDAHO GO GO GO

I like Gomez if they do wrestle.  I think it'll look similar to Gomez and Sasso's matches.  Ridge is great in a scramble but Gomez is a bit scramble-proof.  

[flyingcement]

I'm surprised to see so many favoring Gomez. I like Gomez as an underdog, but I think Ridge should be the favorite

[jajensen09]

Ridge has gotta much bigger since 2 years ago. Ridge should take care of business

I have the following parlay I'm offering - if any leg doesn't happen, then I lose and you win:

1. Mesenbrink defeats Caliendo

2. Ayala defeats Davis

3. Lovett defeats Gomez

if anyone doesn't wrestle or bumps up - the bet is off.  I'd be willing to do avatar for one month

Gomez might win tonight when it's one match and done, but Ridge is better suited for a 3 day grinder of a tournament than Old Man Gomez at NCAA's.

Who wins if they wrestle? The fans! Someone is going to open up and then it's going to be fireworks.
