No, nothing.

I heard Bono would not sign-off to release the aircraft to depart Omaha.

I guarantee the stream goes down at least once and during a key match

Yet it's the one area of our national budget that is deemed untouchable. Often argued defense spending needs to be increased without any justification other than it means you love American more than the other guy.

Glass houses, bud. I'd like you to see you spend more than 800,000,000,000 dollars without wasting some!

Fagen conserves all his energy during the match to make sure he can sprint back to center after going out of bounds

OMG....i just remembered how much i hate pyles....

Ness over Dennis in the final seconds gets my vote.

If all you can do is provide data without the sprinkling of emotion and faith. They shall not relent...

I'm not sure - who was streaming this? Lost coverage before the end of the match. Probably f'ing Flo.

That one, along with his U23s Worlds Freestyle Silver medal definitely earn him like Top 5/6 ranking in NCAA D1 Folkstyle right?

So far... 133 is the bout of the nite! D3

So have the Cornell back-ups He is.... and he started out at Cornell.

this ref is ballsy with the stall calls and a coward with falls...

is they were gay they'd be more interesting

Wait, there's a party? Should I bring an appetizer or a dessert?

Bill Kelly from Iowa state. Sealed the ncaa title for isu.

Wouldn't that be McLravy and Abas? It's one thing to get a fall being down by a lot, but quite another to be down by a lot of points and rally for the decision.

Flo.

Not to mention that it was top 6 until 1979.

And if not, He'll destroy you so badly that it will hurt your Momma...

There are sooooo many complaints about Wrestlestat's Elo (and they are not necessarily unfounded), but can we show some Wrestlesat love? Holy crap, they even have detailed records for junior college wrestlers. Great job, Wrestlestat. Now about those Elos...

Cael has had enjoyed some unprecedented success at Penn State and the total individual NCAA champions he's produced has really accumulated. To date he has coached 32 individual NCAA champions at PSU. This is one fewer than John Smith coached at OSU and he became the head coach there in 1991. Cael only got the PSU job in 2009. Adding in the two champions he coached at ISU, Cael is at 34 and ahead of Smith despite starting 15 years later. The only coaches with more individual NCAA champions than Cael are Ed Gallagher (OSU 37), Harold Nichols (ISU 38), and Dan Gable (Iowa 45). Cael has 4 wrestlers currently ranked #1 by the #1 ranking service, Intermat, and a 5th wrestler that's a returning national champion. It seems possible that Cael will move into 2nd on the all-time list behind only Dan Gable this season. Cael has a realistic shot at catching Gable by 2024-2025, which is crazy. Cael's averaged 4.2 individual NCAA champions over the past 5 tournaments and he's only 11 back. The 5 title contenders he currently has on the squad (RBY, Starocci, Brooks, Dean, and Kerkvliet) have 10 combined years of eligibility remaining including this season going through the 2024-2025 season. 2024-2025 will be Cael's 19th season as a head coach which would be 2 fewer than Gable's term at Iowa. What do you think the all-time list will look like at the end of the season? The end of the 2025 season? Can John Smith get 4 more champions to match Gallagher's school record?

With apologies to @jajensen09 here are the updated NCAA tournament projections based on individual rankings per ranking service: Sadly Nebraska is still outside the top 4 in all three services based on expected advancement and placement points (reminder: expected points are based on actual points scored by seed from 2010 - 2022 and rankings are treated as seed projections). The difference between my methodology and the ranking services' methodology is that the ranking services all over value a top 8 seed and undervalue seeds 9 through 33. Their methodology assumes the only wrestles who will score are those that are in the top 8, which is just not realistic (but it is easy). Now for the good news for Nebraska. They are up and coming. Depending on who you ask they are the second or third most improved team since the pre-season.

Has the wrestling season started or is it duck season?

Welcome to the club...

Got any “Burwikk” updates for us?

You've got someone's back, you may as well try for an RNC. But I've seen twisting hammerlocks.

On the day I bought tickets for Tulsa

Oh no! You mean that $800+ billion we spend each year on "defense" is wasted? Please say it isn't so. Now, that last part was funny. Thanks. After reading the problems other people on here, much better than me at such things, have with streaming, I'll pass unfortunately. Many years ago I came up with a principle we live by... My wife and I don't pay someone to be frustrated by technology. We both were paid very well for that at times. If I could just click the ON button, click the CHANNEL button, and adjust the VOLUME, I'd watch a lot. But I'm not paying someone for me to dick around with the problems they created and can't seem to solve.

... and that got along thing, cool - get on it.

Trump screwed up "EVERYTHING" but Fauci and Obama tried to save us all. How can anyone who isn't delusional actually believe any part of that sentence? When it comes down to it, the government can't save you from covid or anything else, NOR DOES IT CARE TO. Twitter and the internet aren't the real world. The democrats and republicans don't give a shit about you. Take a break from politics, find a little perspective, seek help if needed. Maybe even watch some wrestling.

It’s not a poll, it’s tournament points. There’s a difference.

McCarthy is so desperate that he's about to call Brad Raffensperger asking him to find him 15 more votes.

Once the CDC data indicated the difference in human risk statistics, medical experts should have been allowed to discuss the data, risks, and treatment options.

yes, I believe it's called an "arm bar"

By now you ought to see that Mr. Parrish has a lot of thoughts of his own.

I've got complaint #14,775 about Flo - and this is not a problem that is tech related, just a case of sheer ineptitude. When I want to watch a replay of a match that interests me (in this case at the S Scuffle), I don't want to be be told who won it while attempting to find the replay. Flo commits this inane sin at all the tournaments it carries. As you attempt to find, say, the 157 final you will see a thumbnail for a video with a caption saying something like "Franek talks about toughing out Scuffle victory" right by the thumbnail for the video of the match. Nothing better than seeing the final score before watching the game! They did this at the OTT and every other time I have not watched live but looked forward to watching the matches to see who won. Clueless.

Most things are over my head and not understood.

I suspect they try it all the damned time given the drops in the streaming.

And the right thing is to lie and say that there was something preventing him from competing(other than actual competition at the weight class)? Is that the "right thing?"

Garry Kasparov. World chess champion, Human Rights activist, author, Russian presidential candidate for the Other Russia party opposing Putin before withdrawing. Who you gonna believe, him or Tucker Carlson? Time for Scott Adams' "Which is more likely" test.
