Mr. RIght Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 seeds really don't matter here as long as the top 8 teams are on the main floor. This tournament is going to be a meat grinder like it always is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decbell1 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 seeds really don't matter here as long as the top 8 teams are on the main floor. This tournament is going to be a meat grinder like it always is. I think the seeds really do matter, all you have to do is look at the bracket. Had they seeded Cathedral #3, they would have wrestled Lawrence North to get into the top pool. I would definitely put my money on Cathedral in that matchup. Instead, Franklin gets pitted against Lawrence North, and Franklin has already soundly defeated LN 51-21. Now Cathedral has to wrestle a more unknown Portage team, which is definitely a tougher matchup in my opinion, than Lawrence North. I just think Cathedral's past performances, and what they have done so far, should have given them an easier road to the Top 4 than Franklin.

Regionrat1 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 The ole Rat looks forward to Ole Jimmy Watkins brawl on ridge road. Im making a bold prediction but I like da Portage Indians. I have been doin some fancy math and I like da Indians chances. As we all know its aboy bonus points and stayin of of your back. One otter thing Munster might surprise a few people. Team Maldonado has been workin real hard I he here from my compadres at Mital. Im hopin dat I can make it over in time to see some action/ maybe i should call off.

Goal #2 lock up a few CP kids in the locker room and stay off our back. Goal #3 I haven't thought that far out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it wasnt pulled out of a hat. We'll find out Saturday if it was seeded good or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Portage beats Cathedral then don't they deserve to be in the top 4? If you are arguing that Cathedral is a better team than Franklin then I could buy that. But arguing that they should, because of their past performances, get an easier route to the finals seems flawed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not usually the spelling and grammar type but your signature line makes me laugh. In an intoxicated state one evening, after seeing that movie, one of my friends decided he wanted a tattoo of that phrase... and he got it exactly as you have written it in your signature. To this day he is the "butt" of jokes about it which is ironic because that is where the tatoo is located. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJAM152 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Its another true test for Portage having Cathedral in the second round. I think Portage can pull it off. You have some tough individual match ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanMcMurray Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Wrestlers, Coaches, and Fans can't help getting goosebumps when thinking about the Traicoff! This is a true test to those 'tweeners' and even those returning studs! You get to see upsets and some matches that could be the state finals! I can't wait to watch some wrastlin'! This tournament is truly branded in my head as some of the best memories I will ever have of Indiana wrestling! I'm very excited! Good luck!

ontherise219 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I Would like Calumet to add one more Top team.
