    How about just “best of the rest”?

    2026-2027 Projected Lineup and Thoughts

    I have a vivid memory of this because it was on the precipice of everything shutting down for COVID. Plus, I had never seen lines that long for the men’s restroom as everyone was washing their hands thoroughly. Hope you are doing well also.

    Day 2 Session 3 Thread

    That’s 3 AA’s for the Hawks! I predicted 3 earlier in the season so it’s all gravy from here.

    Yes, it’s a no brainer that NCAA viewership would remain the same if they switched to freestyle.

    Day 2 Session 3 Thread

    Well I’m going to keep saying it because I get more excited watching freestyle than folk style under the current rules. I’m not the only one who records folk style wrestling and fast forwards through the majority of the matches. If NCAA switched to freestyle you would see bigger viewership...

    Day 2 Session 3 Thread

    For those frustrated by the strategies employed against the Hawks (and the Hawks employ those same strategies by the way), that is why I would prefer NCAA to switch to freestyle for men’s wrestling. Too much hanging on and not enough wrestling.

    Day 2 Session 3 Thread

    I have some critiques from my couch, but overall Dean and Drake wrestled well and got beat by a better wrestler. All four semi finalists at 133 are freshmen.

    Mixed bag on backside, some upsets don’t favor Hawkeyes

    Based on the quarters outcome you are correct.

    Great effort from Dean. But, don’t ever, ever, ever try to roll in ride outs. Always, always, always go up and out!

    Mixed bag on backside, some upsets don’t favor Hawkeyes

    I was looking at brackets and 133 is a great example of one of my frustrations with the seeding process. The bottom half of the quarter final is ALL wrestlers from the B1G. None in the top half. I realize there isn’t a good or fair way to separate these conference wrestlers after two rounds...

    The Hawks wrestled better than I expected yesterday. Mostly to seed, but in general they looked more active.

    You don’t peak until day 2, otherwise it’s a valley :)

    All these matches are winnable with the possible exception of 149. I don’t know much about Joy, but he’s the #2 seed for a reason.
