2026 B1G Tourney Session IV Thread

[LB99]

I don’t understand the Mendez for Hodge rage here. The guy is deserving and the PSU guys will steal votes from each other. It’s that simple.

 

[Tryingtodoitright]

Jeff Byers on Lionvision is cutting in and out. Choppy. Anyone else experiencing this?

 

[gimb14]

Just read what Tom entered above

Team Standings, After Session III

1. PSU - 147.5
2. tOSU - 136.5

how many finals do you think we win? If we win only 2, we're at 155.5. I don't think OSU gets to that

 

[jstross]

Let's go Luke. Start this off right.

 

[GregPickel]

Getting ready to roll at 125.

 

[Cali_Nittany1]

Absolutely loving the Pennsylvania intro!

No ones asking you to. Mitch is at 100% bonus. Mendez if I'm not mistaken has 2 regular decisions yet he's been put up by many as the Hodge front runner. It's ok you agree with that....I just don't.

 

[CentexLion]

Not able to Jeff B on Lion Vision!!
Am I the Lone Ranger?

I hear him well

The chances of winning just 2 is less than 0%.

Dear Brothers in Arms. Let's Do This! We Are, Penn State Wrestling!

If anything, you are undermining Barr.

I’m not one for conspiracy theories, as the simplest explanation is usually the correct one. But when guys like Nolf and Starocci never win a Hodge, something is fishy.

Fine for me as well.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Damn, I'm getting goose bumps waiting for the start or the 125 final (and the final session). We spend all year talking about this amazing sport, but Session IV of the B1G Tournament is one of the absolute highlights of the year.

 

[Misalorales]

Jason Aldean walk out for Volk. Hope he gets demolished.

 

[Tryingtodoitright]

Fine for me as well.

now it’s coming in fine

 

[johnstownsteel]

Sure....we can go with that.

 

[jstross]

Volk looks huge

 

[RealMicah]

Volk looks massive

 

[Dogwelder]

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Some great scrambling by Volk

 

[YeOldeCup]

Has Volk taken a single shot??

 

[Misalorales]

Liledahl can not be denied! Volk is a strong mofo though!

 

[Cali_Nittany1]

Whew, Luke really deserved that one!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Lightning Luke in SV-1!!!!!

 

[RealMicah]

Luke is so technically sound

 

[Hotshoe]

F Yeah Looooooke is again, a B1G Champion?

 

[gimb14]

[gimb14]

I can't believe they're interviewing us. what's wrong with them. this should've been yesterday....

[DWKeller]

6 but 8 would be good

 

[GregPickel]

Great match there.

 

[Misalorales]

Liledahl not holding back. He's only concerned with one thing. Getting that title in two weeks.

 

[gimb14]

How about Pat Kraft putting his arms around Scooter in celebration!

how about pat kraft watches from a box somewhere?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Scooter looks happier for Luke than Luke himself. Say what you want about Scooter, but he seems like an unselfish, team guy.
