Sounds like a toss up and some maulings, 40-something to three final score maybe? At best for Illinois?

Hello Hammer! How are you? I avoided the boards last night and wondered how people would see that one. I don’t remember really seeing anything like it in the past, or know how it relates to the definition and enforcement of the stalling rule. It very much seemed to me, and possibly it wasn’t MC’s intention, that he was purposely seeking stalemate to avoid being cut and taken down again. If that’s true, I think it’s a more egregious form of stalling than doing absolutely nothing. You see it differently?

Probably will be close to that, I was gonna say 25-6

Oh, and 184 on the tie-breaker. Total takedowns would be a good separator too. What do you think those numbers will look like?

I’m in! Some tough ones this year. Here’s what I got, hopefully everyone wrestles. 125: Lilledahl mdec. PSU 4-0 133: Ayala dec. PSU 4-3 141: Bartlett mdec. PSU 8-3 149: Van Ness dec. PSU 11-3 157: Teemer dec. PSU 11-6 165: Mesenbrink mdec. PSU 15-6 174: Haines dec. PSU 18-6 184: Starocci dec. PSU 21-6 197: Buchanan dec. PSU 21-9 285: Kerkvliet dec. PSU 24-9 Thank you wkn

Kind of a bystander, but does Arnold not really having done…anything, in college, carry any weight of ridiculousness here? Didn’t he also say something last year while he was redshirting? CS says some stupid ####, but he’s also a 4X National Champion.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t make it that far, and hoping between Blaze and Nagao something changes if things don’t get figured out. So neither would it surprise me if this is his last year in the PSU lineup, harsh as it sounds. I hope it works out for him.

Aside from some minor statistical details, I see it very similarly. The only one I’m still not sure on is Barr. He might be with that trio in the top tier, jury is still out imo. SVN beat Henson two years ago, at NCAA’s right? That’ll be an interesting one to follow. I still think he’s as likely to win that weight as any individual is. But Friday was a little alarming. Hoping now it was some sickness that affected him. I don’t think Davis will AA and really hoping Nagao is back next year in 22-23 form.

Will MM lose another college match? Anything’s possible, but I wonder if the only real chance is Shapiro should they happen to be in the same weight the next two years. How anticipated would that match be? Fun dual to watch

What is Illinois doing? The approach team and system-wide tonight is so strange. Are they are all sick?

Wow, I’d love to take Nebraska with those points. Seems Penn State would have to win four of five in the lower weights to cover that. What services or sites allow you to bet on NCAA Wrestling?

Yikes! Peterson looks tough. I only watched him wrestle once this year against Moran and felt he may be a tad underrated. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him AA

Oh, woops. Apologies then. Cue the Iowa fans I suppose. Bouzakis looked good tonight, very close.

Only time will tell, but all time? Would you measure in total NC’s, or how? I think you could come up with nearly a half dozen linear combinations from PSU’s lineup alone that would end up being more credentialed than that one. I don’t know if any of these guys will ever win an NC, but I’d take Parco/Teemer/Caliendo over that too.

Good lord, maybe he’s the favorite. I don’t know, that part looked very impressive. Thank you Fly
