You think you are, but you may want to spend a little more time with the books. You should start with set theory as you are clearly mixing up the sets. It probably feels like Indiana is bigger than the nation to you, but you may may be surprised to learn that it is actually a subset of the nation. I think that is covered in the first chapter.

Do not discourage this guy. Back Yard Champ is my favorite first grade math poster on this board. He hasn't posted in a while because he and Lavar are playing HORSE out back to see who gets Jordan.

Good point. Flo has him 19 right now, up from honorable mention. He is moving in the right direction.
But not necessarily so. Remember, Lee dropped down in weight (or at least did not move up) in order to seek the match with Red.

How about mini Ditka? I know. Still mini Ditka.
And speaking of mustaches, how fantastic was the lip rug sported by the North Central coach? That man was half 'stache. I feel like the mustache grew him, not the other way around.

Amen. Nomad on Flowrestling has a solution. When doing conference seeding (which impacts NCAA qualification odds) the wrestler who does not appear is treated like it was a lose regardless of the reason for no show. On that basis he would have Vincenzo Joseph seeded third at B1G even though he is undefeated because he did not wrestle against Wick (I think it was Wick). 
The PSU board was up in arms over the idea, but now that it would help Lee at Carr's expense I imagine they will see the light.

After watching the 145 semi between Lee and Graves I am left to wonder about stalling. After reading the NFHS rule there is nothing that explicitly states that spending the majority of the match on all fours is stalling, but it does talk about continuously avoiding contact with the opponent is stalling. It seems to me that spending extended time on all fours is a specific tactic to avoid contact because most offensive moves start with leg attacks. 
In this match I felt the ref did the cowardly thing by waiting to make the stall call until there was so little time left as to be irrelevant, but to avoid never having made a single stall call in a match that one wrestler seemed to decide to try to get to sudden victory before he got on the mat.

Maybe I don't know how the seasons work, but I thought there was only one fall.

I will be stopping in Champaign on my way home Sunday, just to see this match. Can't wait.

Everyone save me a seat. I will decide which one I like best when I get there.

HE'S DONE. HE'S DONE.

Wow, I sure did. Happy to have guessed wrong. 

Love this two sentence sequence. Which is it? Don't have top brag or brag?

Nick has an 88.2% bonus rate and scored 10 in his only lose, but yeah, no offense. 

Huge win by Nick Lee. That was one of the biggest gas tanks you are going to see. McKenna looked huge, but those muscles need oxygen. He made almost no attempt to get off bottom in the final 32 seconds. Well and truly gassed. It looked like Lee clearly saw that before he cut him.
