That was something. I am catching up right now, just finished Zinkin's match. I've been a big fan since he won Fargo in 2025, but every time I watch him, I like him a little bit more. He's going to be a breath of fresh air at what has been a very boring 125 for several years now.

Didn't he RS last year?

Wow. What a terrible match so far. Zero committed shots by either wrestler in regulation. Not even really hand fighting. Bring back the double stall calls.. my god. Dee finally takes some shots in OT. That first misdirect was so fast. Stalemated. He then takes the final shot and CamCat does what it does and Dee ends up on his back and pinned. Catrabone showed zero interest in making even the slightest offensive effort for the near 9 minutes of wrestling action.

I think we'd have reached a similar conclusion based on his typical match tactics from last year, but the part in Stilly Boys where they were in a locker room after a dual and DT said something along the lines of, "You're more worried about looking cool than scoring points," echoes in my head every time he wrestles.

In the hole on mat 10.

Poor ref had no idea how many stall calls he gave out lol.

semis are about the start.

I've looked around pretty thoroughly, and I haven't been able to find anything but the initial start time. I'm guessing they're just going to continue rolling straight through.

A lot of these semis are actually pretty good matchups. The finals should be great. This is the most interested I've been in an open in years.

Rumor has it, he even does push-ups while waiting for elevators..

I understand, but if Bo thinks he's the better wrestler in neutral, then it makes no sense to spend time on the mat unless he thinks he's going to get a turn. By cutting Stanich he was able to get a 9-3 lead. You aren't getting a 9-3 lead by wasting time grinding away on top for a potential riding time point.

Lol wut?

They didn't even wrestle on the mat though..?

Okay, cool. The ACC has more average qualifiers per school. I didn't disagree with that. My point is that your "metric" doesn't actually mean anything in determining how strong a conference is. Based on your "metric" if the ACC added Sacred Heart, LIU, Morgan State, and Bellarmine (sorry to those teams ) to their conference tomorrow, they would be a weaker conference for it. Their average qualifier per school would take a large hit. How can a conference become weaker by addition?

Spratley is just as likely (I'd pick him) to win over Vent or Provo.
