Nice win for Cade DeVos. Go Jacks!

The least surprising "upset" of the tourney. I think everyone had him penciled into the quarters and rightfully so

It's terrible and embarrassing how much they cut away to (a) commercials and (b) totalk to country music stars, celebrities, parents, etc. when there are actually high level matches going on.  

You would never see this happen during basketball or football or soccer or tennis or ...

You could use the espn+ matcast app.   It never cuts out.    There are no commercials.  And it’s like you’re literally in the arena.      I had to pause to pee.   Best ncaa experience ever.  For like $12 or wherever it costs.  
 

I also have secondary and tertiary devices with individual mats I want to watch.  In the form of my fleet of new and old iPads. 
 

edit:   All my kids iPads are “mine” for the tourney

Pinto v Karchla… wth. Team race implications too

[bnwtwg]

Kharchla looks like he's going to halloween dressed as Spencer Lee. Injuries robbed us what he could have been...

[NormMacDonald]

Iowa looking real bad

[Wrestleknownothing]

Arnold caught on the dive and almost pinned. Foca saw it coming

[D3 for LU]

Foca is definitely focused.

AJ Ferrari most anticipated.. wtf y'all doing?

[JimmyCinnabon]

Gabe Arnold is getting taken behind the woodshed and beaten to a pulp by Foca.

Things are going badly for Iowa. Teemer and Parco seem to be injured. 

[Mike]

Foca vs McEnelly is going to be awesome

Iowa has got to change something.. this is the worst I've seen them look.. (I'm sure one of you nerds will point to a worse performance. 

[pawrestler]

I can't believe one of Kharchla or Pinto is going 0-2

[Wrestleknownothing]

Love me a 24 v 25 on the top side. Come on you Dark Horse beauties

[PIAA_09]

Official reviews are ruining the sport. We are getting robbed off watching an exhausted Pinto and Karchala duke it out, which usually leads to madness.

This is not the Kharchla that burst onto the scene ripping up Fargo. It's a shame... I really thought with his pedigree that had injuries not sapped him, he would be thinking about world teams in a different timeline

The finish was still sweet tho...

[NormMacDonald]

If we don't get the splits double bird I want my money back

[Caveira]

Quint - Loras would have won d3 in the Covid year      That would have broke the wartberg / Augsburg streak

"Turley and Braunagel already with 20 points on the board. The scoreboard is huffing and puffing."

 

Scoreboard huffing and puffing might be the greatest line I have ever heard!
