  1. Good point. This is the main thought I had, but it doesn’t do much for the dual matches. A conference dual championship? Just can’t come up with a reasonable solution for emphasizing duals more. That would still be okay to give the easier path to the champions; might make recruiting better for smaller conferences.
  2. Would it put more emphasis on dual matches and reduce conference tournament MFFs if only the finalists from each tournament were seeded and the others were drawn?
  3. How bout Konner Doucet? He didn’t win this weekend but kept it close with two big guys.
  4. Surber wrestled Ferrari in their first ranking match. Ferrari won, but not by much. John Smith said he would find a way to get him on the mat. That turned out to be hwt. last year. Surber said he’s trying to break the habit of wrestling like a hwt. Looks like he managed well today. He beat Zack Elam at the Big12 Conference Tournament last year.
  5. I understand and applaud the scheduling of the match, but not the venue nor broadcast. If is a big word. In defense of espn, the Fairfield-Quinnipiac game drew almost twice the attendance. I have no knowledge of Consuelo money or tv.
  6. I thought it meant death, destruction, and mayhem.
  7. Doing a good job D3.
  8. Espnu carried the Fairfield-Quinnipiac game instead.
  9. Televised? On pay per view? How big was that audience? I wonder why they bothered to have it at all. The announcer said the crowd was small.
  10. Yeah, well, OSU had a backup for Blankenship.
  11. Nobody’s intimidated to wrestle them at 125.
  12. Now I’m hungry.
  13. It’s out of the bag now.
  14. Probably wasn’t for the snow.
  15. I think if it was a season ending situation, they’d announce it. Otherwise, they won’t say much and they rarely, if ever, speculate
  16. How did last year’s end of January rankings relate to actual results?
  17. Tournaments account for the difference.
  18. A healthy Mastro would have helped.
  19. Yes, it was. I guess I’ll have to add that their away matches haven’t been stellar, either.
  20. Sounds about right. I think they reviewed it, but it seems the Cowboys have had some questionable refs for their home matches.
  21. And the added fact that not coming back out to shake hands cost his team a point.
  22. I think that was the original rule. Not the ncaa, but Athens.
