I will see your data point and raise you a data point. In 2020 his TF over Meredith was the sixth of six straight TF's. Now he is on a seven match pinfall streak. I think he wants to keep that streak alive and to do it at PSU would be delicious for him. Would he be so bold as to release Steen if the TF is close, but he can't quite get the pinfall?

From 18-18 in the pre-season to 18-15 Iowa to 18-15 PSU. I love it. Thursday Update: This time with just the most recent pick by each (25) sayer of soothes. Will He or Won't He? RBY is no longer the unanimous choice at 133. I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'. Give the people what they want. No ne predictions out of either the PSU boards or HR.

That makes one of us.

Yes, probable is doing a lot of work there.

He doesn't seem like he needs a coach to motivate him.

I started following PSU closely in 2018 and I am sure they have not started at any other weight than 125 in that time. Anecdotally, there used to be a lot of talk on BWI about how they would start ever dual in at least a 6 point hole prior to the arrival of RBY.

I am a believer.

Askren once called me a wimp on FRL, so his picks do not count. Christian Pyles was very friendly when I spoke to him at last year's Iowa/PSU dual, so he is in. But I am going to call him Pyle because I love it when Chael Sonnen is on FRL. JD Rader has grown on me, so he is in. On second thought, he has never used any of my voicemail questions, so his picks are off the board, too.

BTW, I am going to throw a tsk, tsk and a finger wag at Iowa fans, too, as more of The Intermat Insiders believe in Cassioppi than they do.

I used 60% as my cut off for clear. He is at 62% to Facundo's 38%. Of course, you have the power to change that as I do not have a prediction from you, yet.

He's a pinfall wizard There has got to be a knee twist A pinfall wizard's Got such a supple wrist

Realistic? Were the Germans realistic when they bombed Pearl Harbor?

$75, if you can believe it. That is less than 50 cents per listed credential. And they do not even list all of their credentials.

Here is how the rival factions currently see it. For shame, PSU fans. Not a single one is picking Bartlett to win.

PSU clear favorites among the cognoscenti at 5 weights (133 RBY, 157 Haines, 174 Starocci, 184 Brooks, 197 Dean) Iowa clear favorites at three weights (125 Lee, 141 Woods, 165 Kennedy) Two toss up weights (149 Murin/Van Ness, 285 Cassioppi/Kerkvliet). The Board has spoken.

I don't think he has the credentials.

Gee, I wonder why PSU is able to get so many high end recruits? *NLWC Coaches and Wrestlers and probable clinicians include the following World & Olympic Medalists and NCAA Champions & All-Americans: NCAA Champion Anthony Cassar 2X All-American Jordan Conaway World Gold Medalist, Olympic Bronze Medalist, & 4X NCAA Champion Kyle Dake 2X NAIA All-American Ceron Francisco World Gold Medalist and Olympic Bronze Medalist Thomas Gilman World Silver Medalist & NCAA Champion Franklin Gomez 2X NCAA Champion Nick Lee 3X All-American Morgan McIntosh U23 World Gold Medalist & 3X NCAA Champion Bo Nickal 3X NCAA Champion Jason Nolf Junior World Bronze Medalist & 2X Pan-American Gold Medalist Jennifer Page-Rogers World Silver Medalist & 3X NCAA Champion Zain Retherford Pan American Gold Medalist & U.S. Open National Finalist Josh Rodriguez World and Olympic Gold Medalist Kyle Snyder World and Olympic Gold Medalist David Taylor Mexico's First-Ever Women's Wrestling Olympian Jane Valencia Head NLWC Olympic Regional Training Center Coach Jake Varner (also an Olympic Gold Medalist) NLWC Olympic Regional Training Center Coach Mark McKnight The parenthetical after Varner's name is my absolute favorite part of this list.

I was just about to hit enter on my Wednesday update when that prediction came in. I had to start all over. He is a bold one, that Turtle.

Wednesday Update: It is hard to move the overall needle at this point, what with 29 predictions, but there were five new brave souls who were willing to put their picks where their pie hole is. And while no one can possibly like pie in his pie hole more than myself, I do love the picks, so keep them coming. Author's Note: This is not a pie, but it is pie shaped. If anyone has not had Italian Cheesecake yet, I highly recommend you right that wrong. Far superior to NY Style Cheesecake in my overbearing opinion. Add a little honey and orange zest to the recipe ala Giada and you will not be disappointed. Bravest of Brave Souls Formerly named the "Most in the Bag for PSU" the Bravest of Brave souls title goes to a turtle? And here I thought they just hid when the going got tough. FearTheTurtle has no fear. He has picked PSU to win by an incredible 30 - 5 final score. Welcome to the jungle, is that you Robin Ficker?

I refuse to accept your answer. We are not allowed to hypothesize injuries. They only happen in the real world. Here in pretend land, as I have been repeatedly informed, that is a duck.

Swimmers rule.

Can I swap Cael Sanderson for Bruce Baumgartner?

Pick a side. We are at war. I need those question marks answered. Inquiring minds want to know.

I noticed on Sunday that they moved the scheduled start to 2:05

Good question, Comrade, er I mean fellow traveler, no no, um, how you say? Buddy.
