Think about from an ESPN perspective: the final three matches are
1) 165 Carr goes out on top/ KOT can go for 4 and possibly stop the only 5 timer/ Messenbrink ascends as the chosen one
2) Starocci goes for #4
3) ehh 184 is a weight class for everyone to get another beer
4) Brooks goes for #4
That is high drama
I am fully in support of KOT and Carr on opposite sides. It pays fan service for a huge rivalry while also allowing Messanbrenk the opportunity to Ric Flair it up. Carr and KOT deserve special treatment and the loser of Big 12 should have to face Massabrink Friday night. I just don't see it happening unless KOT wins Big 12s unfortunately.
@MidwestMan is correct regarding the regression of offense from Elam. He went from a dynamic undersized underclassman with a sky high outlook boasting a junior world silver on his resume to a boring AA-type. I hope he fundamentally alters his methodology for the sake of his senior level prospects.

I couldn't come to grips with it until this thread but it turns out I was too fat and couldn't put down the cheese danishes apparently. I mean, I've had a six pack since I was a teenager when I was cutting down to 215 before I could get a driver's license but as we have learned all heavyweights are just rolly polly tittybois so I need to take accountability and that starts today
Fun fact: One of Zane Richards' training partner has the same # of NCAA titles as RBY. And he was so good they had to change the rules because of him. Nobody ever changed any rules for Mr. Bravo Young just sayin
And lower weights just beat up on other midgets who aren't athletic enough to overcome their deficits to be successful in other sports so they get more weight classes so they can increase their participation trophies. See what I did there?
Olympic qualifiers are allowed to compete this week at Pan Am Champs just not the qualifier. That's why we have seen Helen, Adeline, Dake, Snyder, and Parris this week.
