Is this round on BTN+? What time do consi's start?
I honestly don't know. I get BTN+ every season except this one. When Covid hit, I couldn't cancel it from last year. It took 6 months to finally cancel.

I’m just grateful to be able to watch the B1G tournament. We get to see these young competitors develop in real time.

Somewhat related: I can’t understand the need to criticize our wrestlers. I’m not sure how that makes anyone feel good about themselves. The vitriol displayed by some in the session 1 thread was embarrassing.

Most of the criticism was not from people who contribute to this board.
 
What I saw in Session 1 was a team of youngsters that were afraid to create a scramble situation. We have watched numerous guys over the past decade wrestle fearless. Some of it is experience and some of it is confidence. I actually thought Kirk wrestled very relaxed and tried to create some opportunities.
He just was wrestling an ox on 2 legs.
Joe Lee is wrestling scared. Most of the guys that need a decent showing are afraid of making that big mistake.
If a couple guys get qualified I think you'll see more offense.

Outrage is not only a drug but a currency.

I am aware it was mostly interlopers. Doesn’t discount the unabashed asshattery that was on full display. Expecting reasonable reactions to undesirable results from football bros is probably more of a failing on my part.

Session II has semifinal matches on Mats 2 & 3. On Mats 1 & 4, there will be 2 rounds of consolation matches (to start -- I think they will go to 4 mats of consolations after the semifinals are completed, but I'm not certain of that).
