Jimmy Cinnabon 218 Report post Posted March 9 It is clear after this weekend the answer is NOT Penn State. Iowa beat them by over 50 points. Penn State failed to qualify 125, 157 and heavyweight. RBY was dominated by Rivera, Lee lost to Pletcher and may have hurt his knee, Verkleeren lost 3 matches yet somehow qualified for NCAAs, Joseph lost and Rasheed overperformed but injured his knee. Nevills got hurt and is out for the season. So PSU only sends 7 to nationals and only 2 are favorites to win it all (Hall and Brooks). The answer seems to be Nebraska -- who could have seen that coming? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope so but don't see that happening. I do expect that NU can get a team trophy but that will require points from all 10, and at least 5 on the podium Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coachp 30 Report post Posted March 9 (edited) Penn State was never going to challenge Iowa, but at least now, that has sunk in to their some of their more delusional following. I hope Nebraska continues to peak, and put up bonus points to contend for 2nd. If I added correctly, I think the Huskers accrued 26 bonus points at Big 10s. I could see the performance at Big 10, and the fact they qualified the whole team. have some influence with seeding in a few spots, whether it should, or not.

There is 0 chance Nebraska finishes ahead of penn state at ncaas the scoring is completely different...if penn state has a terrible tournament and Ohio state wrestles out of there mind they could possibly pass penn state because they have a chance at 3 champs but I wouldn’t hold my breath Edited March 9 by Antitroll2828 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1032004 729 Report post Posted March 9 Some of Jimmy's threads are decent questions. This isn't one of them. They have no shot against Iowa or PSU at NCAA's IMO. I guess I could see them getting 7 or 8 AA's and finishing 3rd, but they could very easily finish behind tOSU, Northwestern, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. 1 Mphillips reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buckeyehomer 41 Report post Posted March 9 why does anyone think Penn State is out of it? They always over perform at NCAA's and They will have at least 3 finalists, maybe 5 with 184 and 133...Guys like Murin and Warner could easily not AA... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not 133. Not 141. Not 165. 174 - yes. 184 - maybe? I'd say Hall is the only favorite. I can see 2 others of the 4 making the finals but none would be the favorite.

Because they have been snakebitten with injuries this year. Defending national champ Cassar - out for season Former 3rd place winner Conel - out for season U23 world champ Berge - wrestled 2 matches and then out for season Former AA Shakur Rasheed - missed a huge part of the season, now rounding into form but hurt his knee and injury defaulted out of big 10s after a few wins Seth Nevills - top 20 heavyweight injured knee at B10s and out for season Even with 3 finalists Iowa's depth is just too much to overcome...Lee, Lugo, Marinelli, Kemerer and maybe Cass are all likely finalists. Lee, Lugo, Marinelli and even Kemerer may win titles. Desanto, Murin, Young, Warner, Assad may all AA too....I would say at least 3 of those 5 AA. Iowa wins by 50+ at NCAAs....

Penn state's "points-per-wrestler" will be a lot higher, but probably not higher than Iowa. A lot of the matches Penn state lost were swing matches, so who knows what could happen if they have a perfect weekend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The year Iowa got the scoring record they were the underdog to OkSt and had sealed up the title before the final day. The scoring is different than B1G’s and there are a lot of other teams and great wrestlers. The Scuffle and Midlands were shells of their former selves so it’s hard to assess parity among the top 8. Lots of guys could play upset and on the backside anything can happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
