Dark Energy Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Guy has major injury repair going on. Field is not chopped liver. For a hundred dollar bet, how much would you need to win to take the field vs Spencer Lee? Lee not wrestling or injury defaults, or straight up loses , would mean that you win. I’m thinking about $400. But not sure. Curious on other’s thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Cinnabon Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Spencer is winning it. It's as stone cold lock. I'd need 20:1 to take the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old142 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Only repeated "injuries" would stop him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandolphTJones Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 (edited) I think Spencer will wrestle a minimal schedule to sustain his health. Would say if this becomes reality Brooks & Yianni battle it out for the Hodge this season, but still like Spencer's chances of winning it all come March.

Jimmy Cinnabon Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Another interesting question is if Spencer ends up a 4x NCAA champ (like Dake and Stieber) but never wins an Olympic medal, because his body is spent....where does he rank in the all-time greats? I assume he would have to be ranked next to Stieber, maybe 1 spot higher since Stieber had the controversial win vs Oliver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VakAttack Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 There's no way to formulate a full opinion on this until we see Spencer on the mat. If he looks like he did before the injuries or even most of the way, the odds are really good he wins. If he doesn't, that changes. We don't have near enough information at this point to make that determination. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stieber has a JV World Championship to go with his 4 NCAAs, so that should bump him up a littler above Lee. 2 Craig Henning got screwed in the 2007 NCAA Finals.

So I'll use this to rant. For a message board odds discussions like this are good fodder. But this gambling stuff has gotten out of control on TV and radio. I just want to drill a hole in my head when entire shows are devoted to spreads when the time could be used to cover, you know, the games. The extent to which games are watched and covered for the point spread or other thing besides the outcome is weird to me. The point of the game is to win. That's it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Energy Posted November 4, 2022 Author Share Posted November 4, 2022 I think there is a real and significant chance that his injury / surgery recovery will really hamper him. Sucks. Big time. I hope not. If no injury at this time, I probably need to win $1000 to bet $100. But it is there …. Thus my question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammerlock3 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 the odds that his season is going to less fun than most anticipate is 90%. He'll see him infrequently, he won't be at his best, get his fourth title to loud but not thunderous applause...hopefully ready to tear up freestyle. "Half measures are a coward's form of insanity."

mspart Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Knees are delicate mechanisms. He will have to really protect those babies. Regarding Streibler, he won a Senior WC in 2016 for non Olympic weights. So he has some credentials other than NCAAs. I don't know Lee at all but wish him the best of luck with his health. If that works, he should be a 4 timer. mspart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
