    I agree, but are you sure he would get applause? For some reason he got booed his HS senior year at states and that still bothers him. Fans can be brutal and it seems like a lot of people are upset about him MFF out

    I literally cannot believe what I just saw! Wow

    Is there any way to select four mats anymore? Or is matcast the only option? It would be nice to have the two semi finals on the tv and then the four blood round mats on another device. Matcast is nice but it’s smaller than it needs to be when you have a few of the matches on another device

    Crazy that a large majority of the semifinalit’s have 5 or more years when college is designed to be a four year program

    One of these things is not like the others

    You jinxed him!

    That is freakin annoying lol. Control is not felt. It is established

    Wow what an awesome comeback by Haines! I don’t like that the ref called that pin so quick for him, but I do think the ref was right that Haines was not pinned in the first. Just not good that the ref wasn’t consistent. Either way Haines deserved the win. He is fun to watch. He is going to be PSUs next Nolf/Nickal type of guy and be a bonus point machine the next few years

    Good list. Gotta add Griffith vs Carr though… former NCAA champs meeting in quarterfinals doesn’t happen too often! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Anybody know what the difference between the ESPN+ coverage and the ESPNU coverage will be for quarter finals? Will ESPNU cover all 4 quarters or do they pick 1 or two?

    His arm was trapped and he lifted him and planted him right on the trapped arm side. I have never seen that not called a slam before
  12. Eagle26
    Why did ISU not challenge that was clearly an illegal slam? That ties the match and he’s on bottom. Instead the other guy gets to pick bottom and go up 2-0

    Wow! Finesilver 8 seed just lost at heavyweight
  14. Eagle26
    I think Ramirez #4 going down is the biggest one so far. 125 the number 6 & 7 both lost already

    Gfeller and Pappas awesome match. Great scramble in OT

    Gotcha. Btw I thoroughly appreciate all the data you provide. Not trying to discredit all your hard work at all. I just think that this particular data set is skewed a bit by Brooks somehow getting the 3 seed and Dean getting the 9 seed. I think Brooks is a clear #1 at his weight and IMO he’s the third mostly likely to win out of all the weights (behind Lee and Yianni). Dean deserved the 9 seed but he’s much more likely to win it all than your typical #9

    I guess it depends what numbers you look at. In the last 5 championships, the schools combined avg. was 5 champs. They did have four one of those years but also had six one year. I’m not sure what formula you used to get PSUs expected champs at only 1.5, but I’d definitely take the over on that :)
  18. Eagle26
    I’d guess similar to last year. 8 or 9 out of 10 champs from top two seeds (I’d say 9 or 10 if you include top 3 seeds), but a fair amount of upsets to make AA
  19. Eagle26
    Brooks, Starocci, Haines… come on Jimmy there’s 3 on the team you are a “fan” of alone.
  20. Eagle26
    Not sure who but I’m guessing it happens at 197
  21. Eagle26
    That’s right. It didn’t matter back then that it was 330 qualifiers because the brackets weren’t all going to be nice and neat anyway. Then when they switched to the new formula, no one wanted to vote to get rid of an extra qualifier per weight even though it would make more sense to have an even 32 man bracket
  22. Eagle26
    I’m rooting for Nino to win it all but he is the smart bet here. There are certainly other upsets that could happen and many good ones have been pointed out. However, if Nino would lose to Dean/Allred in the quarters, I don’t even think it would be considered an “upset”
  23. Eagle26
    I’m sure they both had their hearts set on a national title. So knowing one of your sons is going to be heartbroken while the other son wins a national championship over him has to be tough. At least the younger bro has another year to get his title. If he wins it all next year, it will sting a lot less!

    What’s so bad about that photo? I have seen much worse. I never understood why newspapers had to use photos that had wrestlers in “awkward” positions

Has this ever happened before at another level? I’m sure that’s an emotional roller coaster for their parents!
