Jett Strickenberger over Stevo Poulin Cole Matthews over Jesse Mendez

Spratley by 4-1 decision over Hendrickson. Announcer mentioned these two were roommates at Minnesota

I like watching Hendrickson because of his build

Starting any minute now on ESPN+

Are these currently legal for wrestling? How does that change the game if so? More participants, but on average they might be weaker-willed in the ways that matter most (willingness to sacrifice comfort and to be disciplined)

What do you think? Permanent move?

I would like to see that as a test for Hamiti (agsint Ruth). Ruth is physically strong for the weight class, and some of the guys Hamiti used to have some problems with at 165 were the physical types in Marinelli and Cam Amine

Mirasolas are good, but I almost wonder if they will be supplanted by other top recruits (especially at heavy). Penn State is so good and the way things have been going, they've been increasing the gap. Guys at that level are guaranteed starters at some point for most programs. Not so for this Nittany Lion squad (IMHO)

I want unlimited free transfers

What do you think? Permanent move or a little break from weight cutting to reinvigorate the spirit of these guys?

That was freaking awesome

Raney brothers as hard nosed lightweight twins would be a pretty good match in Iowa

To be fair I also interpreted it the way @BigRedFandid. you said he is a national title threat to which he said probably (a national title threat) while maintaining the consensus view of Vito as most likely to win

I was most curious about how close that score was

My original guess of 23-13 was sort of close. Thing is - its harder to predict who will wrestle than the actual results

Olejnik is gonna smoke Logan. That's not one of the interesting matchups lol

If I could switch any of my predictions it would be Tagen Jamison taking down Crookham. I don't necessarily think it will happen, but wouldn't mind trying to will it into existence

Bud heavy: check Peanutbutter and hot sauce sandwich: check lets go

eh I think he showed that he has a lack of class and showed poor judgment. standing up for you colleagues is cool - the manner in which he did it was what was most strikingly pathetic

Stout is strong and a solid wrestler, but doesn't have enough ability to create offense consistently against top guys. Poz looks like the clearly better wrestler, even if smaller. Poz gets a last second takedown and wins 8-4

Poz looks considerably smaller than Stout. Stout looks like he sucks down to 197

The East Coast in me was just loving that exchange. Love to see some fire in the belly on both sides

sorry bro. Will type Predictions as a heading next time haha
