Not sure why that's the one match everyone wants to see. I don't care who our guys wrestle, just beat the guy in front of you.

While I still would put my money on the Hawks for the overall, this is a potentially a pretty high leverage session.
I would rather not see that one. I have been pulling for both of them and would rather I don’t have to choose 
I only count 7 scorers in your Gif. Someone not make weight?
I know Woodley is the 26 seed, but I look for this to be a very tough bout for Beard. Woodley has a solid resume, despite the 7 losses. They are to #3 seed Norfleet, 3 losses to #4 seed Ferarri, 2 losses to #9 seed Adams, and a loss to #13 seed Sloan. It's certainly a winnable bout for Beard, just stay focused and wrestle with great energy. WE ARE!
6 to the semis? I'll take that. At the very least we will have the Hawks attention.
BTW, I assume R2 and R3 of consolations will be wrestled this morning. Am I correct?
Track wrestling has:
Howard up as a very first match on Mat #2.
RBY on deck on Mat #6.
Nick Lee right after RBY on Mat #6
Berge four matches out on Mat #4

Everyone, at the commercial level. There may be an "unlimited" plan (with a heafty monthly fee), but trust me, Pyles isn't using his iPhone and Verizon plan to send you mat assignments.
Exactly! He is a LEE! The kid likes to mix it up with anyone like his brother. He needs more strength like Robbie Howard but you can see that he has the warrior heart. He just made some bad decisions this year that he can easily learn from. If he goes beast mode in the room this off season with his brother and Cael/Casey, I bet he will be an All-American next year. I am wondering if he can make weight at 157 and take over for Brady? See if Starocci can get down to 165 and then Facundo can come in next year at 174? Just a thought?
that's one thing, among many others, i miss about not being there; bracket updates. can't follow other matches on tv, and i can't find updated brackets anywhere. checked the walls at home, but no luck
Don't forget tikk, and hopefully pawrestlerintn!! The five of us will be together today and tomorrow, along with several of the Mrs.'s (is that plural for Mrs.?).
Keep doing what you are doing, Tom, and all you reasonable fans. Too bad three or four posters try to ruin the mood of this place and the community that enjoys it so. When I think of yesterday, there was way more good than not-so-good, stay positive and supportive...we have two more days of wrestling.

Beard is a strong and tough man, who looks like he is healthy and well rested. I expect him to go far in this Tourney and be a terror in the future. I love his brutish strength!!
Are you giving up on Berge before the quarterfinals? He'll be our 57 pounder next year and the year after if he chooses. He's going to AA. He's looking great!
Back at ya NashHawk. In this bizarro year I’m just happy we can even be in the conversation with your mighty hawks. Wishing health and safety for all the wrestlers today (PLUS a little super strength for PSU 🙏🏻).Gents: Excellent Day 1! I thought Beard would make a run...and he now has a pretty clean path to the semis and with the way he's wrestling could win it all (anything's possible at 97). That said, it's not much of a stretch to see 5 in the finals and Berge in the semis. Definitely looking like it will be a dogfight to the end. Good luck tomorrow!
I would have no (as in zero) problem choosing who to root for in that match. And I can't imagine why any PSU fan would, but to each his own, I guess.I would rather not see that one. I have been pulling for both of them and would rather I don’t have to choose
Question for everyone, knowing we all are looking forward to seeing the Penn State guys...
Is there a bout that does NOT have a PSU wrestler that you are looking forward to?
To me...
Two at 141 are intriguing, Woods v Wilson, and Rivera v Hart
Marinelli v Griffith & Wentzel v O'Toole at 165
Bolen v Keckeisen at 184
Warner v Ferarri at 197

I thought it was the Beard and Kerd bouts
. Sorry, couldn't help myself.
Do you even time zone, bro?
Anthony slapped Jordan around the year he beat Stevenson on the way to a title.
Just saying?
If Kerk wins this afternoon, I'm having a double-double Pappy 23 year old!
I have been on the fence about whether to take the lenten fasting dispensation given that it is the feast of st. joseph today (and I'm sorta in a fish and chips mood anyway), but if that happens, there is a high probability that I will join you.
I thought he was done after next year? My bad. Keep Joe at 165. He just needs to hit the weights and grind in the room hard in the offseason. I love Brady. I do get scared with his past concussion problems but he has looked like champ this year.
Good idea. I will crack open one of my rare Barrel Aged stouts if that happens.
You're welcome to join my Italian Catholic A** for pasta fagioli and bourbon.
Mekhi Lewis out of the tournament.
some already mentioned but:
Murin - Lewallen
Mauler - Andonian
Wentzel - O'Toole
Norfleet - Bonaccorsi

Griffith looks off this year to me. Hope he can take Marinelli out for obvious reasons.
Damn. Sure did. Forgot it and missed it scrolling through wrestlestat. Good catch/ memory.
Roar, I love the question. For me, I want to see Warner and Ferarri with Fararri winning. And I never thought I'd pull for him as I don't care for his off mat Bravado.
With Stanford giving up wrestling next year I wonder how much energy is in the practice room.
