Just figured I would make a thread to keep it all in one place.

 

Purdue is sneakily getting better, excited to see how they perform.

Purdue has quality starters at every weight.  Good dual team.  But at a tournament this deep, with ~10 ranked wrestlers at every weight, that only gets you so far.

# of ranked wrestlers by weight

125    7
133    11
141    8
149    13
157    8
165    10
174    13

197    10
285    12

Understandable - must have lost the actual wrestling thread among all the other troll threads.

[Marcus Cisero 341]

I’m excited for this particular event because there are 5 top 10 teams among 32 which could produce THREE #1 vs. #2 match-ups this weekend!

Possible Match-ups

141 lbs #1 Luke Pletcher vs. #2 Dom Demas (this is a match that has already happened with Pletcher coming out on top in SV).

157 lbs #1 Hayden Hidlay vs. #2 Carr (after seeing how Carr knocked off Young, I expect a really close match).

184 lbs #1 Valencia vs. #2 Trent Hidlay

When was the last time we saw this level of competition in one tournament?!!!

Has anyone been able to open the brackets on Flo?

Initial Bracket reaction for tOSU:

125 - oh good golly... sucks for Malik.

133 - Koontz will also be a quick out

141 - Pletcher's semi vs. Red or Tariq will be tough... especially if it's Tariq

149 - Sasso can get his revenge in the Rd of 16.  If he does i do seem him beating Parriot to make the semis vs. Degen or Purinton.  I think Degen would be a tougher matchup.

157 - Mattox has a very tough road.  If he makes it to Carr, it'll be a rematch (IIRC) of a close HS match or two.

165 - Smith has what I feel to be a good draw to the Semi's vs. White

174 - Romero has a big test in Hastings that I think he'll pass, but then Labriola.  Labs will be his measuring stick.

184 - Hoffman wins his first match then faces Lujan.  ouch.

197 - Moore's semi vs. Schultz should be close, but winnable.  Moore in finals vs. Sloan/Woodley (IMO)

HWT - Has a definite path to see Mason in the semi's.  Should be a good measuring stick to see how much Singletary has improved, or how much Mason has improved (or if they both improved! ha!)

Quick flip through the brackets and Cornell has a lot of first or potential second round matchups against Purdue and I was surprised by the strength of the team. Cornell's early rounds seem... fun? interesting? potential early rematches of Pletcher/Baughman and Hidlay/Darmstadt, for example.

Yeah. But only after switching to IE (wouldn't open in Chrome).

[gimpeltf 1,620]

Opened right up in chrome for me

[Antitroll2828 735]

Baughman Pletcher round of 16...pletcher with uninspiring 9-5 win over Harvard 1st round 

[lost 129]

Wilson looked super gassed in his first match but still won 9-3.  Koontz with a mild upset over Kramer in OT

[Antitroll2828 735]

McCoy was beating Lewan 6-1 then lewan injury defaulted..just walked over to the ref and told him he was done

How much time was left? I saw he was losing. That wasn't an attempt to protect a future seed was it?

He was down 6-1 and McCoy had 2 and half minutes of riding time with about a minute left in the 2nd period

Does anyone know  what mat there is commentary or do they just bounce around?

I think in the early rounds they move around and try to catch matchups they think will be interesting.  When it gets to quarters/semis they usually have defined mats for coverage.  At these thats how its been at big tournaments in the past.

If Tariq loses, he'll immediately challenge him to a game of one-on-one basketball.

[russelscout 1,573]

Dang Anthony Mantanona is fun to watch.

[russelscout 1,573]

Dang, I so badly want to see Anthony Valenica start dominating, but HEW

[Antitroll2828 735]

Sasso vs Moore ,lee vs maruca  and Coleman vs yapouijan some solid round of 16 matches 

embree vs colbray is interesting too

It's such a shame. Everyone thought Hoffman was going to be a world beater.  He's definitely looking the opposite at this point.  Ryan should be looking for a transfer or a hot Frosh recruit for 184 if Hoffman is the best they got.
