  1. Ironside's the GOAT
  2. Fear not, the pastry will provide. We will have plenty to talk about.
  3. Jimmy: instead of 0-2 and BBQ did you go 0-1 and sticky bun? (With a side of MFF)
  4. First two periods, Carr scrambled through to late takedowns and I'm thinking "KOT won't let that happen next time" but then seeing him ride O'Toole in the third? Incredible. Carr totally owned the match. It will be interesting to see what kind of adjustments KOT makes but I must admit Carr has the advantage going into the Big 12 tournament. That could be the last time they meet up this year. I expect the bracket at Nationals to be a wreck.
  5. Because it would be good great for the sport and USC and UCLA will be able to support mens and womens wrestling under their new Big Ten media contract.
  6. I can agree with this. Overall lots of good offense from Okie State. Highlight of the night imo was Plott catching Picklo in an air bow and arrow during a scramble. Lowlight was the bad decision making by Sheets in the 3rd period. He should have won that match.
  7. How many D1 teams would exist if we killed off every program that wasn't successful? Wrestling is about more than what goes in the W-L column. Those kids at Bakersfield are going out and competing, maybe even enjoying it despite what you think, bettering themselves as humans while getting an education. Lay off of Bakersfield, bro.
  8. How does that 125 bracket compare to the year Metcalf won it with Schlatter, Burroughs, Caldwell, O'Connor, Churella forget who else but I remember it being pretty loaded?
  9. Or they could work it like soccer: Run a timer while the refs are looking at the replay and the action is stopped. Add that extra time to the end of the period.
  10. Yes, anticlimatic as hell.
  11. Take away the no. I meant "being THE worst one in the room"
  12. Except sports are learning that technology and getting the perfect call doesn't always make them better. Baseball has computers that can flawlessly detect if a pitch is in the strike zone or not. MLB doesn't want it because when they tested out the tech in the minors and it made the games even more boring. Baseball games ran longer and scoring went down.
  13. Replay sucks, get rid of it.
  14. I went from great in high school to not being the worst one in the room my first 1.5 years in college. I literally couldn't score a point on anyone.
  15. Maybe if we get another multiyear pandemic and everyone is given an extra 3 seasons of eligibility...
  16. Hey you leave Ironside out of this
  17. I can't disagree with that...
  18. Yes, I was agreeing with you.
  19. It's supposed to be based on the current season foremost with prior championships an ancillary factor, but that would assume that the voting actually follows its own criteria...
  20. I think a case could be made for awarding Parris the Hodge if he wins it all. Impressive body of work this season, he's been competing on another level.
  21. Agree that Gable was more of a sure bet than a not-healthy Spencer but the field is pretty soft at 125. Glory won't make the finals. It'll be somebody like McKee or Cronin getting hot and having a good draw until they run into Lee. My only question is whether 2nd or 3rd period Lee could get out from underneath if a physical wrestler throws in double boots.
  22. You forgot Real Woods
  23. I've got KOT but the smart money these days is on someone ducking. Here's hoping the match happens.
  24. But do guys like Starocci affect the team's chemistry? Their personalities don't fit the PSU mold. The last time Cael had "me first" guys who take themselves too seriously in the room was who, Suriano? And look how that turned out.
  25. Did Cass catch Parris with a slow motion Winn Dixie there? Jason Nolf would be either proud or flabbergasted.
