    2013 Big 10 Review and NCAA Seeding Predictions

    125 So I’m assuming everyone else is as concerned as I am about McD’s prospects for his 3rd national title (let alone a 4th appearance in the NCAA finals). He really struggled against the 8th seed, Malone, in the quarters match, gutting out a 5-4 win on a riding time point. Then a painful match...

    Penn St. - Iowa Preview

    125: #1 McDonough (13-0) vs. #2 Megaludis (16-1) Previous Meetings: 2012 Dual, McD 3 - Megaludis 1 (OT) 2012 NCAAs, McD 4 - Megaludis 1 While he's not scoring bonus with the frequency we're used to, McD is still the man. While he normally seems to get stronger as the match goes on...

    My NCAA Seeding Predictions

    Prior to the conference tournaments, I tried to predict NCAA tournament seeding, using both the final coaches poll and the RPI rankings. Where applicable, I also took into account certain head-to-head results that didn’t seem to be properly affected in the coaches poll. 125 Pre-Conference...

    NCAA Dual Thoughts and Big 10 Seeding

    Overall thoughts: Came away from the MN dual pretty deflated. The whole team looked flat - the Hawks had no business losing that dual. Feel a little better after the IL dual, but there's still a lot of work to do before Big 10s. Note: Records after each wrestler's name represent their record...

    DSJ to 165?

    Granted this is now 3rd hand, but according to a poster on TOS, Luke Eustice confirmed this at the Council Bluffs I-Club event. We've still got a lot of time left until November, but I wouldn't think Eustice would have said this at such a public forum unless it had a pretty good chance of...

    NY Times on Title IX

    http://www.nytimes.com/2011/04/26/sports/26titleix.html?_r=3&pagewanted=all Can we just get this poorly written law revised already??? Stop cutting men's sports to be compliant. It's pretty crazy to see how creative athletic departments can be in order to be "in compliance".

    My 2011 NCAA Championship Predictions

    I want to say in advance, get ready for a depressing Friday morning. I’ve only got 2 Iowa wrestlers making it into the semis. Based on seeds, McDonough’s the only Iowa wrestler that’s projected to be a semi-finalist. For Iowa to win this tournament, they need to really make their move via...

    Big 10 Tourney Thoughts and NCAA Seeding Predictions

    Cranked this sucker out late into the night and cleaned it up during lunch today. Let me know what you think. 139-138. Painfully close. But to be honest, PSU earned that victory. Our 2 guys who wrestled below expectations (Marion and Gambrall) didn’t get it done on Sunday in the...
