  1. Everyone thinks their guys are the exceptions. And maybe they are. Even if they have 1 chance in 100, someone will be the one. But remember, it isn't about the guy. It is about where the guy stands relative to all the other guys. For example, the last 13 seven seeds who have made the final have all lost. Seems statistically improbable until you see that all 13 times they lost to the #1 seed.
  2. I have it at 2 AAs this year based on current Intermat rankings. Of course, anything they do to improve their seeds over their rankings at their conference tournaments will increase that total. The far right column is the probability of AAing based on fitted results from 2010 - 2023.
  3. If that happens there is always viagra.
  4. BTW Spey on Flo has a good blog on the inconsistency of control calls this year: https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/12040856-ncaa-d1-week-14-roundup-just-what-is-control-anyway
  5. Well that isn't what you said. You said they were either both TD or neither was. No one is arguing it should have been a neutral danger TD on Davis, just a regular TD. The issue was that Davis was on a knee when Kilkeary was behind him and in control. Since the criteria for neutral danger takedown is very different than the criteria for a regular TD it doesn't make sense to say they are parallel situations that have been called the same.
  6. The scoring is not the same. Third through eighth were worth less in 97 than now, a 15 point win without back points (called a match termination) was only 1 bonus, and 97 was scored as a 64-man bracket whenever there were pig-tails. Adjusting Iowa's 97 score for today's rules yields 171.5
  7. They did not call it a TD in 141. It was neutral danger.
  8. Lee won the first match 12-3. Diakomihalis hit his head during the match and was unable to take the mat for match 2, forfeiting to Lee. Lee will represent the US at the Pan-Am OG Qualifier at the end of the month. Not sure who will represent the US at the Pan-Am Championship the week prior. The US has to enter someone at the Championship in order to go to the Qualifier.
  9. I think Real Woods was surprised it wasn't a pinfall, too.
  10. Is Chad Red still with the RTC? I haven't seen him compete anywhere? Or is he coaching?
  11. I remember a wrestler saying they had a facilities problem that makes it tough to recruit. The one time I met Angel Escabedo he seemed like a very nice guy. I would like to see him succeed.
  12. Mendez hit his first bump in the road, losing 4-2 to Pitt's Matthews. Was leading 1-0 with riding time secured, gave up the escape with 18 seconds left and the takedown with 6 seconds left.
  13. Probably not news to most given the tweet is 3 weeks old
  14. At Iowa they suspended athletes from football, men's basketball, men's track and field, and wrestling. At ISU it was football, track and field, and wrestling.
  15. My first date with my now wife we went waterskiing. She started from the dock and finished on the dock. She didn't get wet above her ankles. I knew then and there I needed to marry that woman.
  16. Looks like you have a house guest. Just not the one you want. Steveson chooses to stick with minor league fake wrestling.
  17. If Steveson doesn't take it can I get a shot at that basement?
  18. For Olympic Trials they do this all on two days, unlike Final X where there are weeks between the challenge tournament and the final. This makes a bye to the final an even bigger advantage as you are wrestling someone who is more beat up and has had to make weight two days in a row.
  19. I was glad to see he was the runaway winner of both the committee vote and the fan vote. He was awesome this year.
