  1. Gable Steveson is probably the reason. If not for his two nattys, eggum coaching him in the Olympics to Gold and Gable potentially coming back for a shot at a third I think he’d be gone.
  2. Luke Weber was another guy that I watched wrestle cook a couple times. I believe the first time it was at up 174 and Weber tried to throw Cook. Looked for sure like he had him, then as cook seems to do, ended up tossing Weber and putting the match away. I think it was a 17-8 final. The next time was at 165 and Weber was much more careful. 2-2 going into OT when Cook caught him again and won 8-2. I honestly think Weber learned from Cook that he could throw too (just not against Cook) and went on to being a Big 12 champ with that added to his arsenal.
  3. Suburbs to Rural inner city to suburbs migrants to inner cities
  4. Did he play in any games this year as a TF? He could have played up to four and still kept his RS status. I’m excited that he’s wrestling at all.
  5. Agree he doesn’t look like himself. The arm has to be a big reason why (IMO). I’ve watched matches in the past where he would try until he got it (especially against guys he’s wrestling the first time) Doesn’t seem to be the case now. I always enjoy watching guys that he’s caught in the past wrestle him again and seeing how they adjust against him.
  6. Real nice of Michigan to accept the invitation to travel to South Dakota. Sad that they didn’t bring close to a full roster.
  7. If you follow wrestling it’s known that cook goes for the big throw and pin. It’s what he does.
  8. Eventually there will be a slot for the sec east and west division champ. Same for the big 18 or whatever it is. Again the spots will go up higher than 12 eventually too
  9. I also don’t think they’ll stop at 12 teams. FCS has 24 in their playoff after being at 16 for years.
  10. Just like they used to before the conf championship games were played.
  11. It will also be interesting to see if the conference championships remain a thing. With the At large bids being half the 12 team field I can’t imagine conferences will want to stick one of their better teams with a loss in that game. Could negatively impact a team getting a bid or at a minimum a lower seed.
  12. There are currently 10 FBS conferences. They’ll use the six champions out of the ten with the highest ranking.
  13. I believe there are ten total FBS conferences. They’ll use the six champions with the highest ranking so it could be different from year to year. I think this covers realignment that’s probably still coming by not designating the six and letting the rankings play a part.
  14. It sounds like the six top ranked conference champion teams qualify. Of those the top four receive a first round bye. The rest I’m guessing are picked off a similar criteria to what’s being used now. A combo of strength of schedule, record, head to head, common opponents , injured players.
  15. The portal is exactly why you do it. Doesn’t work out buy some more kids and move on.
  16. Your significant other must be disappointed
  17. Franek was an AA last year. Franek 4-0 vs Zerban last year. Swenson 1-0 vs Zerban last year.
  18. I worked for a company that had a test with standardized questioning as part of the hiring process. Couldn’t get people to pass it. Went to questions that adjusted based on answers and it all went away. Candidates weren’t good but at least we had people. I’m so glad I’m done dealing with todays workforce.
  19. That’s the problem though. They think because they’re smart(er) they shouldn’t have to work for it.
