2022 NCAA Tournament, Session 1 Thread

[NormanChad]

We all saw Nick Lee wrestle back for 5th after losing his first round as a freshman. I believe senior Drew can do something similar.

Nothing is the last 2 weeks says that. Looks like a continuation of the BIGS.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Drake Ayala (Iowa - 125) loses to Fabian Gutierrez (Chattanooga) in R1, 12-9

Well, I could be a glass half empty guy but I trust Cael and the program. Maybe the data doesn't support my opinion but being a fan is mostly about believing in the improbable despite the evidence.

Fair enough!

Pretty sure Drew ain't Nick Lee. This also appears to be a trend, not an exception.

 

[GregPickel]

Wow, McKee might go down too.

I’ve tried everything. How can I watch the psu matched. ESPN is a crapshoot

ESPNU has whip around coverage. ESPN+ has mat-by-mat cameras. We post the mat assignment here so you know which one to flip to to watch.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Caleb Smith (App St) defeats Patrick McKee (Minny), 8-5. Wow

 

[crwatso]

I would like to think that's a possibility but just haven't been encouraged by what I've seen the last few matches. We shall see.

Absolutely right Greg, between Big Ten's and this there is nothing encouraging that makes that a possibility or rather likely. Just odd, really odd this whole thing. Where was the guy that wrestled Suriano to 2-1 and looked so strong in other duals?

 

[Karl_Havok]

Some upsets at 125 today already. Dang. McKee also goes down. I think he finished 3rd last year.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

RBY's match is delayed a bit as he faces the winner of the preliminary match, and they have to give time for the winner to recover.

 

[Sunshinedynomite 1]

Do we have any idea on mat?

 

[GregPickel]

Caleb Smith upsets Patrick McKee, 8-5. The 125-pound bracket is a mess already!

 

[Karl_Havok]

Glory looked good on Mat 2. ADS up on Mat 2 next.

 

[Karl_Havok]

Do we have any idea on mat?

I think all 1 seeds got a bye so it's gonna be a while.

 

[Karl_Havok]

ISU kid is hurt on mat 4. Hope it's not serious.

 

[Karl_Havok]

ADS gets taken down immediately.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Do we have any idea on mat?

they only post up (wrestling), on deck, and in the hole. We're constantly checking, but so far nothing is posted yet for RBY. Apparently Nick Lee, CStar, and Dean have the same situation (wrestling the winner of the prelim), so just be patient.

They show all mats in the menu but all I get is spinning circles.

 

[Karl_Havok]

That did not last long. ADS with an E and TD and 2 NF. 5-2.

And 4 more NF. 9-2.

EDIT - 13-2. Game over soon.

 

[Lmdm]

Caleb Smith (App St) defeats Patrick McKee (Minny), 8-5. Wow

Except for Suriano the big ten 125 pounders crapped the bed. Hildebrandt will not score even one team point.

[Tom McAndrew]

no byes. They just have to wait for the required time between matches.

 

[Lmdm]

Nothing is the last 2 weeks says that. Looks like a continuation of the BIGS.

Don’t see it!

 

[GregPickel]

Iowa strikes first in the team race with bonus points, as Austin DeSanto wins by technical fall at 133.

 

[Still in State Colllege]

Smooth path for Suriano.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

At this rate, Bartlett may wrestle before RBY (as Lee will also be delayed)

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Brian Courtney (UVA) defeats Rayvon Foley (MSU), 4-2

 

[GregPickel]

RBY in the hole mat 4.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

RBY in the hole on Mat 4

Note: They already had a match in the hole on Mat 4, but I guess they got to the required break between matches, because the assignments were changed fro Mat 4

 

[Fencepost]

Decent chance Hildebrandt will see Teske in the conis.

 

[crwatso]

Ayala lost?

 

[GregPickel]

Nick Lee in the hole mat 6.

 

[GregPickel]

Ayala lost?

Yeah, 125 was a blood bath, as summed up nicely here by Jim Carlson:

 

[Karl_Havok]

Mat 1 is D'Emillio vs Kinner. Kinner is a former tOSU guy who transferred to Rider.

Byrd pinned by 26th seed
