KOT looks significantly bigger/stronger than at any other point in his career.

Two 1st's and a 3rd for KOT.

Gotta assume this is in reference to the Abas brothers...

Yep

That probably would be the smart money move. Say what you will, those boys know how to win though….

The 5.5 number seems very steep. I think Vegas would set the number closer to 3.5. Would you take the over/under at 3.5 titles?

I’m just giving you a hard time. Mesenbrink has a lot of promise. His freestyle accolades have been very impressive.

Who would you take if Meyer were wearing a PSU singlet?

The UK is a moral & financial dumpster fire. Canada encourages its poor to euthanize themselves. France is subject to terrorist attacks constantly. Admittedly, I’m not familiar with present day Germany.

That is certainly a list of countries that I would hate to see the USA turn into.

Tulsi Gabbard was the most level headed democrat in the last presidential election so of course the left ran her off.

Agreed! It'd be like getting offered a job, turning it down because it's not a good fit with your life right now and the prospective employer saying "If anything changes in your life and you want to make a change, the job offer still stands."

Honestly 87.5% at PSU is really high. With the amount of high end recruits they have on the roster currently and 9.9 Scholarships available they all have to be taking a cut.... I'm sure they make up for it with a nice NIL deal now though.

My reasoning for selecting Nebraska was their two highly ranked guys. Lovett is a very solid wrestler but has no where to go but down (SVN, Henson, Gomez -has beat Lovett twice, Mauller would all be formidable opponents). Also, just don't really know what to do with Robb and how he will respond to the injury/recovery. For what its worth I hope that he proves me wrong and as a result Nebraska outperforms their seed. My reasoning for selecting OK State was basically opposite for Nebraska. I think they have a couple guys with upside (Sprately, Alvarez, Thompson) and their highly ranked guys are pretty solid bets to place at/near seed (Fix, Plott).

The best piece of evidence we have to support the weight class he will wrestle (if he is able to wrestle), is the first person account of AJ.

Maybe, but he has stated a desire for MMA also.

He went as a true freshman

But would a guy that’s been out as long as he has really want to finally come back and then redshirt?

Pretty sure he was a U17 medalist

I’ll go OKSt on the +% and Nebraska on the -%.

What top 15 team do you think will outperform their projected preseason point total the most +%? What top 15 team do you think will underperform their projected preseason point total the most -%?

Typically if a person that is arguing a position has to use their "years of experience" to validate their stance they are on the losing side of the argument. I have witnessed master electricians doing terrible work and their response, when challenged, is "I've been doing it like this for 35 years!!" Well buddy, you have been doing it wrong for 35 years!

Lol. I am not familiar with Mel’s worldview on this topic.

I’m in. Let’s make it happen.

Yep. I believe that Ferrari was pulling from 225 or so down to 197 when he won a title so if he is now unable to make 197 (I don’t think that is the case but some seem convinced even though he says otherwise) you would have to assume he’s up in the 230-240 range.
