He lost in the blood round in 2017 before breaking through in 2018, thanks to my wife and me.

Good point. I collect college wrestling data. The funny thing is I don't really collect the tables, charts, and graphs. I do not save many of them.

Not a collector of anything, butI do have an Apollo 13 pinball machine that I love. What is your favorite.

Brutally and relentlessly

It is hard to know what you are talking about because there were so many times he beat Massa. I think my favorite was the time Massa figured out a way to give up 6 plints in rideouts. That has to be some kind of record.

When I watch FRL I think Pyle does a fine job. He has things to say, points to make, and steers the conversation. Then I watch these clips they put out on Twitter of Pyle sitting in front of the window talking and I find it hard to believe he is the voice of Flo. They seem very poorly thought out, rarely make a strong point making me wonder why I took the time to watch, and the verbal ticks (um, uh, you know) drive me to distraction. It is as if he does not talk on camera for a living.

Are you feeling OK?

I just assumed Vera was so tiny at 97k he could make 125#. My bad.

Good points

Looks like I mis-read Wrestlestat

Imagine sending out 10 ranked wrestlers and not having a chance

One more thing. There are 7 ranked v ranked match ups in this one and by the time the match starts all 10 may be ranked v ranked.

The first of a wrestling triple header. Probables with Wrestlestat predictions 125: Davis v DeAugustino - Davis 8-3 133: Nagao v Ragusin - Nagao 7-3 141: Bartlett v Lemley - Bartlett 10-3 149: Kasak v Gomez - Gomez 12-5 157: Haines v Mattin - Haines 12-2 165: Mesenbrink v Amine - Amine 5-4 174: Starocci v Griffith - Starocci 5-4 184: Truax v Bullock - Truax 10-6 197: Brooks v Striggow - Brooks 18-4 285: Kerkvliet v Davison - Kerkvliet 6-4 Final PSU 26-6 Some tasty match ups in this one. 125 Davis, not yet ranked (but that has to change, right?), against #3 DeAugustino to provide some clarity at 125? Yeah, no. Still no clarity no matter who wins. 133 #4 Nagao against not yet ranked, but still 16-0 at 133, Dylan Ragusin. Nagao hasn't beaten anyone notable while Ragusin's best win is probably over Colaiocco from Penn. Both guys have questions outstanding they need to answer. 149 True freshman Kasak coming in for injured Shayne Van Ness shows off PSU's depth. His only loss so far is to teammate Bartlett at 141. But this is a big step in class against one of the favorites at 149, Austin Gomez. 165 Mesenbrink v Amine may be the most interesting match up of the night. The contrast in styles and experience could not be more stark. PSU's red shirt freshman is all gas/no brakes. Meanwhile Michigan's fifth year junior likes to keep them close. Though Amine is coming off of a rough stretch (lost 3 of last 4), he has seen it all and will look to shut Mesenbrink's offense down. 174 Starocci and Griffith, the first #1 v #4 match up, will bring four titles to the mat with them. Though Starocci is looking like a Hodge favorite this year while Griffith has already taken two losses. 285 Kerkvliet and Davison are the second #1 v #4 match up of the night. With 11 years of college wrestling experience between them this has to be one of the most, if not the most, number of combined years on the mat at one time. Surprisingly this is the only pair that have ever wrestled each other before, though Davison was at Northwestern for that one. Davison leads 1-0, but Kerkvliet is the favorite to even the series.

And what principal would that be?

That guy you asked about was Kerkvliet, not Hutmacher. And the L is yours, not Hutmacher's. Read your own posts. You will see it.

We will need soooo much more than your word on this. Video or it didn't happen.

Very. Does you phone not get pictures?

Hennessy VSOP Privilege Had this tonight at my neighbor's. If bourbon has too much burn for you, check out this cognac. Smooth as silk. And you can find it for under $50.

The wrestlers who out performed their seed by at least 10 spots is heavy in the past 4 years when everyone was seeded, but here is that list anyway. There are also a few from the 16 seed era on the list. Killian Cardinale is clearly the most under rated wrestler of all time. In the 12 seed era (1979 - 2013) only one wrestler outperformed his seed by double digits. Edinboro's Jarrod King won 165 as the 12 seed in 2009. Also in the 12 seed era unseeded wrestlers made the final 9 times, winning twice.

Just take the L and move on.

I am guessing that after the Nebraska Iowa dual Iowa will be the sixth team to be favored to finish second.

You can say that again.

And one of the Brands yelling at the end of the Glazier win "hey, take that stall call and shove it". You have to mic these guys up. I'm begging.

"Has anyone done more for the Hawkeye's success this year than Zach Glazier?" Tim Johnson Ferrari reference?

Better than lying, cheating sons of bitches?
