2017 NCAAs Session 2 Thread

[Tom McAndrew]

take place at 7 pm EDT this evening.

TV - ESPN (though you can't control which mats they show)

Video Streaming - ESPN3 (where you can choose which 4 mats to display in your browser window, and switch the mats you select as needed)

Audio Streaming - Byers will be available at this link:

http://www.gopsusports.com/collegesportslive/?media=550913

GoPSUnow indicates that his audio will start at 6:20. Perhaps it will. This morning's stream was supposed to start at 11:20, but didn't seem to be accessible until 11:45. (I didn't catch the end of his Session I broadcast, so I'm not sure what he said about when the stream will start this evening.)

PSU matches tonight:
141: Gulibon vs. #4 seed Matt Kolodzik (Princeton)
149: ZPain vs. Jordan Laster (Princeton)
157: Nolf vs. Victor Lopez (Bucknell)
165: Joseph vs. Branson Ashworth (Wyoming)
174: Mark Hall vs. Jadaen Bernstein (Navy)
184: Nickal vs. Steven Schneider (Binghamton)
197: Cutch vs. Frank Mattiace (Penn)
285: Nevills vs. William Miller (Edinboro)

I haven't seen anything as to whether they are starting with consolations, or running some mats for consolations and others for championship. And, I can't recall how Session 2 went in previous years, and I'm too lazy to look it up.

Again, just a reminder to keep all discussions about Session 2 matches, PBP, PSU wrestlers, non-PSU wrestlers, team standings, mat assignments, etc. in this thread.

Here's to a continuation of how PSU wrestled in Session 1.

 

[diggerpup]

TrackWrestling showing 8 consolation pigtail matches to start Round 2.

 

[psugrad85]

And the second match on all mats is the top side.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

TrackWrestling showing 8 consolation matches to start Round 2.

you're getting a better connection than me. 10 minutes ago it showed no matches assigned. I just went back and checked, and it's showing me the assignments for the start of Session 1. Go figure.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

I just went back and checked, and it's showing me the assignments for the start of Session 1.

now it's showing me a preliminary consolation match to start on each mat, then right in to championship matches on all mats.

 

[21Guns]

Which mats designated for championship and which for consys?

if your on the john, need to catch up or are bored because the guy across from you drank his dinner.....the link will highlight some big matches this round.

 

[Cletus11]

Prediction: PSU goes another 8-0 with 6 pins, and two majors.

 

[Cali_Nittany]

I kept up pretty well with my ipad and phone at work today. Now I have my tv, computer and recliner all ready to go for session 2.

Zain, Nolf and Nickal are set to join the McCutcheon pin club. WE ARE!

Didn't know that Epperly had all that trouble earlier with that kid. Could be interesting.

 

[21Guns]

Championship on inside mats, consys on outside mats, so PSU will be on the inside mats, not sure about the numbers.

 

[dsites52]

I just have to imagine that Cutch was in the back like "Hey guys, how long did it take you to pin your guys in the first round?"

 

[Tom McAndrew]

GoPSUnow indicates that his audio will start at 6:20. Perhaps it will. This morning's stream was supposed to start at 11:20, but didn't seem to be accessible until 11:45.

ah yes, some things never change. no stream at this time. "The selected content has not yet started."

 

[RandyL]

Which mats designated for championship and which for consys?

Is there a designation like this?

 

[NittanyGolfer]

One round of consi pigtails then all championship followed by consolation round

 

[PSU Mike]

Prediction: PSU goes another 8-0 with 6 pins, and two majors.

Lol. Was thinking all year that Kolodzik would be a bad matchup for Jimmy. Here's to maintaining my streak of looking dumb in here.

 

[21Guns]

Jeff's audio during the first round was cutting in and out all day. Bad phone system in the studio.

Here's to a continuation of how PSU wrestled in Session 1.

Is there anything special we have to do when we log into ESPN3? Sign up for anything? Passwords? Etc.?

 

[Tim Owen/BWI staff]

All set up for this one, just off mat 6

bout numbers suggest there will be a round of pigtail consys then a full round of championship action before another round of wrestle-backs. Either way, only one round for the PSU guys tonight

 

[PSU Mike]

Is there anything special we have to do when we log into ESPN3? Sign up for anything? Passwords? Etc.?

Your cable provider and login for that provider, I believe (haven't done it yet b/c of work).

 

[PSU Mike]

Championship on inside mats, consys on outside mats, so PSU will be on the inside mats, not sure about the numbers.

I'd think inside would be 3-6.

 

[RandyL]

Your cable provider and login for that provider, I believe (haven't done it yet b/c of wo anyoneork).

nope...should be available to anyone.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

no, you don't have to do anything.
1. www.espn3.com
2. scroll down and find some text for wrestling that includes Mat 1
3. below the window for wrestling, select the square that has 4 squares in it
4. click in one of the blank squares on the new screen, and then select some text for wrestling that includes Mat 2
5. click in the blank 3rd square and repeat what you did in step 4, but for ... Mat 3
6. repeat step 5, but for ... Mat 4
7. select Launch Multi-Screen (or something close to that -- going from memory)

 

[dunkej01]

im going with 7-1 (Jimmy falls) 2TF, F, 2MD and 2 dec

Edit: and we lead in the team race after day 1

 

[Cali_Nittany]

A couple of early ones to watch:
Picc - Rodriguez mat 4
Nato - Sykora mat 3

 

[Tom McAndrew]

All set up for this one, just off mat 6

damn, Tim, you got down close to the action. hope for your sake that most of the PSU matches are not in the corners.

 

[PSU Mike]

nope...should be available to anyone.

Just prompted me for a login.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

well I finally got the audio stream to function at 6:48

 

[hlstone]

no, you don't have to do anything.
1. www.espn3.com
2. scroll down and find some text for wrestling that includes Mat 1
3. below the window for wrestling, select the square that has 4 squares in it
4. click in one of the blank squares on the new screen, and then select some text for wrestling that includes Mat 2

6. repeat step 5, but for ... Mat 4

Pretty much nailed it.

 

[Tim Owen/BWI staff]

damn, Tim, you got down close to the action. hope for your sake that most of the PSU matches are not in the corners.

With your PBP Tom, I got nothing to be worried about

 

[ClarkstonMark]

I'd think inside would be 3-6.

I would think 2,3,6,7

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Byers says they will wrestle 10 pigtail consolation bouts first, then they'll wrestle the Championship matches, and then they'll wrestle the consolation bouts. PSU doesn't have anyone in the consolations at this point, so Byers indicated they may not stick around too long after the championship bouts are over.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

With your PBP Tom, I got nothing to be worried about

lol

 

[Cletus11]

Just prompted me for a login.

It is the username and password for your cable account.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Is there anything special we have to do when we log into ESPN3? Sign up for anything? Passwords? Etc.?

one addition to the instructions I provided above. I've set you up to load mats 1, 2, 3, and 4 in the window. However, bouts are taking place on mats 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. That's why we post mat assignments when we know them. If any PSUer is on a mat that you haven't loaded, you have to close one of the video windows you loaded, then click on that blank window and load the appropriate mat. It's a bit of a PITA, but you get used to it pretty quickly.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

so the coverage just started on ESPN. The ESPN3 streams are not yet going.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

and now the ESPN3 streams are starting
