Mr. PeanutButter

indeed, but he drops a close decision to Wolak in the bloodround here. If he had won, fate would have propelled him to a 7th place finish. That's just the way the cookie crumbled this year

the rest of the picks are gold though, right?

Not predicting it, but Lorenzo Norman has shown flashes of goodness and Keegan is, ostensibly, less than 100% so that 2nd round match could get juicy

It wasn't me. It was the muse speaking through me. But, just for you: 285 Gable Steveson Wyatt Hendrickson Greg Kerkvliet Ben Keuter Owen Trephan Nick Feldman Luke Luffman Yaraslau Slavikouski

Three 65" monitors? That's slick. I have two 32" curved monitors that I set side by side and pull up real close to my face

Everyone here knows that I am the biggest Carter Starocci fan so I really only wish him the best but I think it would be really funny to watch pond scum Mineo and the PSU faithful try and defend him after he forfeits out of the tournament, leaves Philly, and writes some boulderdash on twitter.

Your family screwed up when they moved you to a retirement home with internet access

I noticed that not every single thread on the PSU board turned into a discussion on Iowa. I'd say the ratio is down to 9/10

In what way has Gable been disrespectful or demonstrated a reprehensible demeanor? Did he threaten to piss on somebody's grave and I missed it?

myself and many of my high school teammates were absolutely decimated after Metcalf lost to Caldwell

posting the Parco bit on HR is a masterclass of generating good and congenial discussion

That Parco stat is gold and has a real shot of happening

The very valid criticism of Iowa relates to the lack of champs. Time and time again Iowa wrestlers will have outstanding regular seasons only to come up short at the big dance. This is a trend that has grown too big for even this Hawkeye homer to ignore. That being said, what are the realistic changes that can take place? What available coaches could immediately improve results? because you can bet your buns that Iowa fans (particularly the donor base) will not entertain a grace period

That's a common, but not universal symptom. Pizza face and excessive flushing are 2 others and Kasak has that in spades. In addition, you don't think it's a little suspicious that he went from a 141lber to a hulking 57 in one year? Yeah, he might have supreme genetics but color me skeptical. To be fair, I'm a cynic and assume that PEDs are widespread in high level athletics. For example, I'm suspicious of Cass' multiple body transformations and am a little dubious about Spencer Lee's upper body mass gain between March 2023 and Oly trials 2024 (but really, really hope it's all natural)

No, no, no. Thats the HGH infused cow he ate over the summer rearing it's ugly head

That was gah awful

Mendez, like Real Woods last year, seems to have regressed or at least stalled in progress. Bummer because I'm a big fan

Man, this weekend has kinda sucked for me. Good thing I decided to adopt Illini as my secondary team

Oh fooching fantastic. Now I'm forced to watch Bartlett wrestle on all 3 mats

Da fuh? Big+ showing the same match on all streams

Illini and Nebraska are on fire. Iowa decided to take a huge dump this weekend

This is not the first time Ramos has gotten majored at Bigs ,but sheeeeeesh

Jeez, Ramos. Could you telegraph your shots any more?

That was a very bizarre match to watch from Jacori. He got the major, but gave up his legs (and turned away from his opponent) like 8 times and generally looked disinterested in being there
