Got quarterfinal mat cast on the tv and two mats up on my computer (switching back and forth to the matches I want to see up close). Work computer is off to the side, just to monitor email. I got all of my "real work" done Monday thru Wednesday and held off on answering all of my email for the week for yesterday and today. Dan McDonald, Penn '93 danmc167@yahoo.com
VakAttack Posted March 22 Posted March 22 They didn't amputate Davis' hands overnight. He just slapped a pretty sturdy high 5 with his right hand. #HandWatch 1

Wrestleknownothing Posted March 22 Author Posted March 22 9 minutes ago, SocraTease said: I think quarterfinal wins are worth 7 points (plus possible bonus), which is huge. Previous wins in the championship round were only worth 1 point (plus possible bonus). It will make huge differences in the team race. If you win in the quarters, you are guaranteed AA status (and at least 6th place), right? Edit: I didn't mean to post this as a reply to the comment. Oh well. Let the matches begin! correct Drowning in data, but thirsting for knowledge
skandar Posted March 22 Posted March 22 Is there a view that shows all four quarterfinals without the wrestle back matches?
Crotalus Posted March 22 Posted March 22 (edited) Mizzou had a horrible first day, especially with three seniors (two returning AAs) going 0-2. But the 5 remaining actually all have reasonable paths to AA. Edmond (21) has Composto (22), then would have the winner of Crook (20) v Owen (30), followed by Vombaur (26) in the blood round. Now, I think he'll lose to Composto, but there are no major roadblocks. O'Toole (1) will have an opportunity for bonus vs Taylor (8) (glad Taylor beat Hall who always wrestles Keegan tough). Hawks (11) has Hopkins (28), followed by the winner of Conway (19) v Anderson (29). Then he would have Key (25) in the blood round. If Hawks is ready to wrestle, he can do this. If Rocky (12) loses to Beard (4), he would have Stout (16)/Stemmet(18)/Urbas(24)/Smith(26) in the blood round. Hopefully he can step it up against Beard, but it would be a big disappointment for him to not AA either way. I suspect Elam (6) the Bigger will lose to Hendrickson (3), then he would have to beat Catka(26)/Hill(25)/Szuba(18)/Griess(17). No AA for him would also be a big disappointment.

Le duke Posted March 22 Posted March 22 Davis doesn't get a lot of respect here for some reason, but he's really, really good. Has terrific fundamentals. Very, very rarely out of position. 1
KCMO2 Posted March 22 Posted March 22 Thank god! Now we don't have to listen to another cringe worthy B. Davis interview on Saturday. 1 1
bnwtwg Posted March 22 Posted March 22 You bet your ascot I picked Richie Figs to win it i am an idiot on the internet
Voice of the Quakers Posted March 22 Posted March 22 Surprised by the lack of urgency in the first wave of quarters at 125. Plus, wrestlers are so used to trying to kill time staying in bounds they forget when they need to save time by going out of bounds and getting a fresh start in the center of the mat.

Truzzcat Posted March 22 Posted March 22 you can't hit someone for a stall just because its the last 20 seconds of a match if you did not do much the prior 6 minutes 40

Truzzcat Posted March 22 Posted March 22 Just now, Idaho said: Sure you can... that's not actually how the rule is written. you can but two level changes in the final 20 over an entire match should not force a stall call just because the guy has a lead that he earned and is sitting on his defense.
