2021 Big 12 champion Luke Weber (Photo/Mark Lundy; LutteLens.com)Just like the hangover in the morning, the exhaustion after a grueling day of work, or the walk of shame home from a night of debauchery, sometimes after a day/week filled with so much adrenaline, we as humans require an equal and opposite reaction for the week ahead.
And that's what we have. After the craziness that was the Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational, we roll into a week where less than half the D1 teams are in scheduled competition, and only eight of those are from the Top-20 teams of last season's NCAA Tournament. It's kinda the break we need.. Time to cool off and digest what just happened.
You know that scenario after your fantasy football draft is completed and you find out that week 11 has seven of your starters on "Bye Week?" That's basically what we are dealing with; only the whole league is dealing with it too.
Every point matters, so choose wisely and adjust accordingly.
I'll keep it short and sweet. We all have holiday gifts to buy that won't arrive in time, so we have to print out a picture of it and put it in a wrapped box to fake like you thought the gift through and didn't rush it, but your printer is out of color ink and low on black ink so it comes out kinda gray with white streaks but with still enough detail that you can pretty much make out that it's a comforter set and not a Wegman's pumpkin roll…
Anywhoo… on to Week 6.
Only two tournaments are slated officially on D1 schedules: The Cleveland State Open and The UNI Open. As of the writing of this article, entries are few to comment on now, but keep the notification "ON" to @FatnasyD1Wrestl for updates.
Teams locking during the week:
Thursday 12/9: Brown and Hofstra
Friday 12/10: Army, Bringhamton, Edinboro, Franklin & Marshall, and Rutgers
