I don't really see how anyone can defend PSU not going. They are de facto #1. For what will become the #2 premier event to be at in the college year to not have the top dog is head scratching. Hope they go next year to take the spot from OSU or Iowa

I much prefer Dake’s chances at medaling than Zahid’s

It has been and will continue to be. Like it was explained above, the right draw and he wrestles for a medal. He is also just straight up good so maybe he doesn't even need the good draw

Spending more on fines than the act itself! lol

The coding on a game like this would be unreal

Those are both guys who win on close gritty matches. Those types of matches don’t exist with Ono

I see you have predicted him losing. I obviously have the reverse, quite confident in a sweep, so don’t be surprised when Hidlay comes home with some hardware

On the front side he lost to Aaron Brooks 4 times

I don't He hasn't needed to. His underhook series is elite

57- Lee / Lilledahl = Lee in 2 by domination me thinks. His defense is elite and when he scores his top game is suffocating. 61- Vito / Forrest = Vito in 2. It's all a mental game with Vito, and his health of course. When he is on his game he is one of the best wrestlers in the world. 65- McKenna / Woods = McKenna in 2. His experience will be the edge, only way I see Woods winning is if he runs away with it early. 70- Yianni / Duke = Yianni in 2. Again with these NY guys its mental. If he blocks out the noise, Yianni coasts to 2 wins. He's savvy, experienced, and every bit as strong as Duke is and then some. 74- MM / Carr = MM in 2. Carr has not looked great but he's game planning for one guy and that's tough to bet against. That being said that one guy is Mitchell Mesenbrink who will, with this win, start his streak of multiple world team representations. 79- Wick / Haines = Wick in 3. Eh. 86- Valencia / Dake = Dake in 2. Been a huge fan of Valencia since he was in HS and wouldn't mind being wrong here but Dake is inevitable and will get his way. 92- Hidlay / Barr = Hidlay in 2. Josh Barr is a second half athlete. I just wanted to say that. I've seen someone call Trent a "little Yazdani". I'll take him. 97- Snyder / Zilmer = Snyder in 2. Just wrestle. 125- Hendrickson / Hillger = Capt. America in 2. Mustache, no stache, Hulk smash, Lakers in 5.

I really wish USAW would stop stuffing Beau Bartlett matches down our throats. These events are brutal when they let Beau Bartlett wrestle. I fixed it for you

OH YEAH BABY. MAGIC MAN STRIKES AGAIN

Nahshon*

He should be allowed to compete. Whether you like it or not this is eyes on the sport. A lot of them. He’s our best at the weight and can medal and damn well could win it. Don’t agree with his actions but I hope USA Wrestling does not step in

I think Dake wants to place at worlds not just get a spot on the team

He's to show up to court next week. More info then probably

And this is a bad thing?

Correct me if I'm wrong here. I have never seen an Iranian compete elsewhere. They win it for their country and no one else

He will probably help at least

I think once Yianni and Vito are done competing they would be really good at coaching the yourh

Love that this topic is being hotly discussed elsewhere lol. He looked lost out there. Hope he bounces back, I think he could have the ability to be a top 5 guy at a weight he chooses but maybe that's too wishful

Wish it were legal. One of the nastier looking moves

I think he's done enough to cement himself as one of those top tier guys. GSP, Silva, Jones, and then Nickal of course. He can hang them up with his head held high!

Dude how? Loved seeing him AA finally, which I thought he did with his last year, idk how these guys find eligibility. Not going to complain about seeing Alvarez for one more go though

Ledecky is honestly ridiculous and that performance just landed her at #10 for greatest athletes of all time, my list
