You've got to be kidding me. Back in the day it wasn't unusual for a guy to weigh in butt naked. I remember seeing one dude trailing toilet paper on the ground behind him like a tail when stepping on the scales!
Rules on underwear. Jesus. Please tell me the required underwear is this, at least.
If you subscribe to the theory that there are an infinite number of dimensions it's statistically probable that all of PSU's lineup was arrested the day of the match in a least a few of them.
The problem for old school Big 10 wrestling fans is this: they want to hate PSU, but they are wrestling fans and they can't help but admire how good PSU is on the mat. If you hear guys in here bashing the Brands, they are probably Iowa fans. Probably longtime Iowa fans from back when Iowa was the dominant team, also.
If Spratley is as good as people say he is, then Strickenberger has to be a dark horse for the NCAA title. He's horsed Spratley the last couple times they wrestled.
I predict Barr will be 100% at NCAAs.
Good points, but I think when people talk bluebloods they are talking about programs that have been dynasties. OSU has a strong program but until they string a few titles together, they aren't on par with the other OSU, PSU, and Iowa.
So Trump tells the truth (that he never reads from notes), and you mock him for it? For the record he was telling the truth, mainly because he's illiterate.
I'd say the chart above shows the seeding is usually pretty solid. How far back does it go?
I can still remember at least one #1 seed that didn't place, Max Askren. He went 28-2 over the regular season, won a Big 12 title, and then lost 2 straight at NCAAs. I was happy for him that he finally won a title his Sr year.
1-5 in the finals. Jeez. The thing is none of the losses were really upsets, those guys just lost to better wrestlers.
The only one that I thought was bad was Surber. That guy wrestled like a limp noodle. One part of his match he was locked up with the other guy and he didn't move his feet for about 15 seconds.
