  1. Naw. That wouldn't go over. There are too many fans out there like myself who like folk better because at least in folk the guy who gets the takedown gets a chance to work over the guy on bottom for turns. In FS they get, what, 3 seconds? That's ridiculous. If the NCAA adopted FS rules I wouldn't even bother watching college wrestling anymore, I'd just watch international FS if that happened.
  2. "Lame" is the perfect description of Oklahoma State University.
  3. Askren has always had a big mouth, but I'm old fashioned and can't stand guys who talk shit, I appreciate the old hardnosed style of keeping your mouth shut and acting like you've been there before, you know. I can't stand those guys who praise Jesus after winning either, that's ridiculous.
  4. Probably the fake OSUs like Oregon State or Ohio State.
  5. Keuter was sure a lanky looking dude. He needs to pack on 25 pounds of muscle or so, he'll be nearly unstoppable.
  6. Does the Boston Marathon have a heavyweight division?
  7. Refs have always installed themselves in matches. Hometown reffing is still a big thing in wrestling, and it was back in my day too.
  8. When I wrestled back in the Pleistocene a guy was expected to work towards back points if he was on top. I've noticed a lot of guys just riding these days and not working for points. That would've been called stalling back in my day. Back then we didn't have techfalls, or 4 point nearfalls, or 3 point takedowns either.
  9. He obviously needs a mullet to top him off You've seen those Poulin videos from when he was a kid? Hehehe
  10. Askren always has something stupid to add to any conversation, doesn't he?
  11. How many teams make the podium? It's 4 isn't it? I think Iowa should easily make top 4 without burning Arnold's RS.
  12. Surely you aren't busting my chops on that. I remember more than once when OSU was ranked over Iowa and got roughed up at the hands of the Hawkeyes. Seems like it happens a lot of the time, actually. Plus the Cowboys seem to nearly always lay at egg at NCAA these days.
  13. Iowa was a lot tougher and a lot better than OSU was, kudos to the Hawkeyes. I knew OSU was, as usual, overrated.
  14. I thought Brands was kicked off the team for gambling or something.
  15. I think the rule is that a guy can keep his RS if he didn't appear in more than 5 varsity matches.
  16. Oh yeah, I forgot about Voinovich. This will be like a homecoming for him. He was at OSU for 2 years I think.
  17. Lehigh is usually pretty tough. Any win over those guys is definitely a plus.
  18. Brands is definitely more animated.
  19. Mizzou resting nearly their entire lineup and getting demolished by NIU 30-6 made me think: If PSU's starters were all unavailable, where wound PSU's 2nd team be ranked? How about Iowa? How about NU, and so on?
  20. I think Smith and Brands should man up and put their singlets on . Those fatties need to step out on the mat and wrestle at this dual.
  21. Are you sure that's a school and not a low-security prison?
  22. Well, I was picking McKee more as a 20:1 type longshot, to be honest But I don't think there is a huge favorite at 125, even Ramos has lost a few matches this year.
  23. Why did so many of Mizzou's guys sit this one out?
  24. That will be a big NU win if the starting lineups show up.
  25. Naw, I'm going with him to win it all. He's a Sr, he's placed high before, and I think shit will get sloppy enough at NCAAs at 125 that he might just end up on top. I'm not sold on any of them as a lock, Ramos and Barnett have looked quite beatable this year.
