Really wish they'd not schedule the wrestling championships against the first weekend of the NCAA basketball tournament.

Not. smart.


However, if you wanna watch the live scoring click here


for the bracket LINK



Mizzou has 6 guys still alive, 3 in the winners bracket and 3 are fighting through the losers brackets.

They have as good a chance as anyone just gotta keep winning. Mizzou's got a 14 seed in the 184# division that's pulling off upsets.

The regular suspects are showing strong. OKST, OHST, Cornell, PSU, Iowa are the teams that have the best shot at winning the team title.

too bad Title IX keeps the SEC from sponsoring wrestling, the south would be awesome at it.

How freaking good was the 84 oSu team with John Smith and Kenny Monday. I think John Smith is the best American wrestler since Gable.

Some may argue Cael Sanderson who is getting into Gable territory as coach/wrestler

ESPN's use of whatever non Alec Baldwin brother they used made me not take this seriously.

The National Museum in Stillwater is inspiring. The set up kinda sucks and they are retarded to not be open during football saturdays.

They are also retarded for not taking my proposal to sponsor a "National Championship" for youth wrestling and host it in Stillwater during the summer. Apparently they don't like money and prefer operating on a thin budget. They also didn't like my suggestion to sell their property to OSU and build a better building in the athletic village north of the football stadium.

OSU took a bunch of properties by imminent domain and much of the promised facilities have been mothballed due to T. Boone's hedge fund tanking and taking 35% of the endowment with it. They've been slowly building the endowment back up but the life insurance policies on their biggest and oldest donors have yet to pay off as those frickers keep living.

as for Sanderson... the dude was ridiculous.

Here's 2004 Olympics video of Sanderson vs. Yoel Romero (a juiced up animal that was on his way to a UFC belt before testing hot finally) LINK

Penn St. looks to be running away w/ the team title.

Looking forward to the finals tonight.

It's still horrible management to put this up against the first and second rounds of the hoops tournament.

The UFC also has a free card of fights on FS1 tonight. Would be cool of the UFC to try and get wrestling on fight pass. Air some of the big duals and conference tournaments. Wrestling has provided many great champions to MMA, some UFC money and exposure would go a long way to helping wrestling out and vice versa.

The Baldwin brother wrestled in college and was a voice in the save wrestling in the Olympics fight. He is deserving of his spot on the coverage team.

He was also amazing in backdraft so back off.

Penn St. locks up the team title on points.

However, the finals have some nice match-ups and the championship matches are starting off here in a minute.

Can't wait for heavyweight. I haven't followed college wrestling much this year, but having some stars face off in the finals will be a big deal.

Yup, I'll be watching for sure.

There's UFC, NCAAT, Spurs/Warriors to go up against but that's a can't miss match. They don't happen like this often in college wrestling.

and Dean Heil's win at 141#
