    Mizzou to Big 12

    Doesn't matter. Their school and athletic department contributed to the destabilization of the Big 12. Their leadership tried (and failed) to get into the Big Ten before either Colorado or Nebraska left. As far as I'm concerned, they can pound sand.

    Big 12s

    It's already factored in ("197 quarter win"). They have to add those points manually because of the way the brackets are set up, and to avoid the system giving out backside bye points.

    Big 12s

    Because his 3rd-place match was 7-1. Not a major.

    Big 12s

    There isn't one. A tie is a tie. (See ISU/Nebraska, 2009).

    Pre-seeds for the Big 12 tournament

    It's supposed to be. Some teams will look at the numbers and draw their own conclusions.

    Pre-seeds for the Big 12 tournament

    Since he's not seeded, he'll definitely wrestle in the first round. Unseeded guys don't get byes.

    Iowa State and Northern Iowa

    One weigh-in for the day. Both teams weighed in at noon, because both started competition at 1:00 (OSU vs UNI, ISU vs Iowa Central).

    Big 12 wrestling championships

    Ehhh, maybe. A "true 8th" match is on the docket. If he loses the 7th-place match, Witcraft would get 8th by rule only if LaMont beats Small. Otherwise, Witcraft would wrestle Small for true 8th.

    Big 12 wrestling championships

    There are no advancement points for placing matches.

    Lehigh Dual

    Pretty straightforward. Criteria A: number of wins (5-5) Criteria B: number of "6-point" wins [falls, forfeits, defaults, DQ] (1-1) Criteria C: Match points from Dec/MD/TF (57-47)

    Little Rock

    Or maybe the NCAA leaned on the Pac-12 about only having 5 teams.

    Little Rock

    If not a full merger, the math makes sense for qualifying-meet purposes. Get all of the qualifiers into more of a regional feel. Big 12 + Pac-12 = 18 EIWA = 17 MAC = 15 Big Ten = 14 ACC + SoCon = 13 There will also need to be a landing spot for Augustana (S.D.) when they do their transition to...

    ESPN+/FLO

    ESPN+ is only a carrier. The events would be produced locally, or in-house by the schools. Basically, imagine J. Carl (or whomever the school could get) calling a home OSU dual, with ESPN graphics. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to have all of the Big 12 home duals in one place, under...

    Session 1 Results

    Hose job. Clearly a broken hold/two different holds. Should have been 4 + 4 and the TF.

    Any chance of actual Big XII schools adding teams?

    Checklist for adding sports in Texas: (1) Is it football? (2) Does it have anything to do with football? The better chance (0.1% > 0.0%) would be either KU or KSU, since they actually offered the sport in the past. I just don't think any power-5 AD is going to divert money away from current...
