Boy have the PITT-PANTHERS come on! Talk about tight bouts..

I still like ties in almost any sport but baseball - and the championship finals of any other sport. The prospect of a tie adds an interesting dimension to sports, especially when there is a heavy favorite.

Somewhere I posted, except for bracketed dual meet tournaments, Dual meets ties should be broken only by the first 2 tiebreakers should be 1+2 (A+B?): unsportsmanlike conduct then number of bouts won.

Has any D1 wrestling program, other than OkSU, Iowa, PSU won won more than 2 consecutive Team titles in the individual tourney? I Think IoSU won 2 lost 1 won 2.

I believe the most consecutive championships was Arkansas Indoor T+F. I don't know if that had an ill effect on that sport, but:

Did not UCLA win 8 Basketball titles in 9 years? It really seemed like that sport became much more popular when that dynasty ended.

These two will probably meet again at Big 12 tourney, and possibly at THE DANCE

Missouri is rugged. Rocky Elam will be a tough out for Beard.

No Yianni, shocking lol (quack)….you know there will be some unprovable reason given but it’s not a good look for wrestling…..and what a crappy presentation this is….. scoreboard not working, no clock, no riding time clock…. Names arent even right …..Flo is a struggle…..

Will be interesting to see if Foca wrestles Smith….
