Completely agree. I have been to every NCAA since 2000, and Detroit was easily the worst overall experience.
Back in 2007, NCAAs were held way out in Auburn Hills, a suburb approximately 40 minutes from Detroit. Little Caesars Arena is right downtown, and Detroit has a lot of new hotels and restaurants.

Did anyone see what Huntley did to get DQed?
Michigan Wrestling's twitter page says that Huntley "falls . . . on stall calls."

What time do the finals start (Eastern time zone)?

I'm intrigued by maligned's proposal for an Elo rating system.

Is anyone else having problems with the FLO feed for Coleman v. Kennedy? Worked great for me all day until now.

I'm hopeful that Michigan will get an upset out of one of the following: Youtsey, Bruno, Dutton, or Murphy. PSU will dominate overall, but I'm very impressed by Michigan so far this year.
-
I noticed that backup Sean Boyle took 5th, while starter Conor Youtsey took 7th. They both wrestled a common opponent. Boyle beat Deutsch 7-1, and Deutsch pinned Youtsey. I wonder whether McFarland will now start the RS senior over the RS freshman.

Eastern Michigan hasn't had an All-American since 1997.

10 vs. 10 is definitely a better judge than 9 vs. 6 against the field. That being said if they went to the dual format I think they should change the dual scoring up. It hardly seems right that Team A could win the first 5 weights 7-0, 7-0, 7-0, 7-0, 7-0 and Team B wins the next 5 weights 1-0, 1-0, 1-0, 1-0, 8-0 and Team B wins even though Team A outscored them 35-12.I'm not sure how you would do it without sitting down to really think about it but it would be nice if the entire score carried over. Maybe you take the actual team scores and get rid of major decisions. Then a tech. fall and a pin will clear the individual match score all together. A Tech. fall equals 15-0 and a pin equals 20-0. To me this would be a better representation of who is the better team.
Not to mention I think it would force kids to try to go out and get more points because it carries over to the next match in this case. Just an idea that I would like to see implemented in some form or fashion.
That's a provocative idea. Under your proposal, Iowa would have beaten Missouri 47-27 at National Duals instead of losing 18-16 (presuming that the forfeit at 133 would be treated as a fall). Also, Minnesota would have beaten OK. St. 80-30 instead of 28-9.

That was an AMAZING tournament! I was glued to my TV, which was hooked up to Flo and BTDN. Attendance was abysmal, but I think that would change dramatically if an NCAA team title was on the line and the event scheduling didn't conflict with the high school tournament. I'm very much looking forward to next year.

BTDN feed is not working for me.
-
Boyle was at 25.
Wolverines won 24-15.
-
It's only on BTDN (digital network = live web streaming).BTW, B1G win by Mich St. Lyon pinning Michigan's #15 Boyle at 133 lbs in the first period.
Michigan St. up 12 - 7 @ the half with also a big win by MSU 285 lb Mclure over Apland.
Lyon has to be so stoked with that victory. That pin had the MSU crowd going crazy.

Forgot to mention. Ryan pulled a double Ryan--held out Tessari and Capone, denying fans of two feature matches (Tessari-Grajales and Capone-Apland).+1
Grajales-Tessari is half the reason I got off my butt and drove to Cliff Keen to watch the meet.
-
They each have one loss in the B1G. How much does margin of victory/loss matter?
Mega pinned Delgado and barely lost to McD (at Carver).
McD squeaked by Mega and got handled by Delgado.
Delgado handled McD and got pinned by Mega.
I think that Mega fares best on this factor. Of course, Delgado also has two non-conference losses (Clark & Garnett), Mega has one (Zanetta), and McD has none. I'm not sure what exactly are the B1G seeding criteria, but I would say that, while Mega fared the best in the "round robin," that is offset by his non-conference loss, and give McD a plus for his past B1G title and National title.
1. McD
2. Mega
3. Delgado

The view sucked, but looked like he was in some serious danger.
-
Taylor was working hard for the tech against Polz late in the third and got reversed to his back. With a little more time, he might have gotten stuck.
-
There are some rumblings that Penn State will not have the same lineup we saw for Nebraska. hhmm.......Also read that Grothus is going at 149 instead of Kelly.
Vollrath in at 165 to eek out a win over Moore and Taylor up to 174 to take down Evans. :)

Any word on the status of Cam Jackson?
That head-and-arm hold that Massa uses is pretty brutal. I think I recall several refs stopping him from using that on occasion.

On top of the podium.
