Kasak closes out the afternoon for the good guys with another bonus point victory. 13-1!!
13-1 with a last second take down. Impressive win. Rooks did nothing
How about using the FS rule? Bet you that would cut back on it.
Kasak wrestles 3 Arrington tonight for a spot on the podium.
Really like his four bonus points after his R1 loss.

Kasak is such fun to watch!!!
It's ridiculous. Haven't see it yet this tourney but some matches it totally changes the complexity of a match in regards to gassing.
Great job by all!! All 10 have a shot for podium! Hope Bernie ok
The rule should be that when a challenge is lost, the wrestler who was on the losing side of the challenge has to restart the action on his back and the other wrestler gets the pin combination he chooses. Let’s see how many bricks are thrown with that rule.
That’s it for PSU until tonight.
Davis vs 5 Volk in BR
Nagao vs 3 Orine in BR
Bartlett vs 6 McNeil in SF
Kasak vs 3 Arrington in BR
Haines vs 12 Andonian in SF
Mesenbrink vs 6 Caliendo in SF
Starocci vs 4 Griffith in SF
Truax vs 10 Fishback in BR
Brooks vs 12 Elam in SF
Kerkvliet vs 4 Schultz in SF
Some tough ones tonight; better use this time stock up on your White Claw.

My opinion is a point penalty would stop most of them.
Actual post from Iowa board:
“If I’m Noto in the semifinals I would block off and try to win 2-0. It sucks for the sport. I can’t stand it. But that’s how you beat Iowa guys. Stall your ass off and win one scramble. It’s the same song that has been playing every dance for the last 6 years. Jacob Warner, Murin, Bull. All had the same issue.”
Some just don’t get it. The crazies think they have 5 Mesenbrink’s in their lineup

I figured out why I was so down after the first session yesterday despite the overall success. It was the Kasak loss. I can’t get enough of seeing him wrestle and was gutted for him. He has quickly become my favorite guy on the team. Looking forward to tonight and hope he sees his way to the podium.
Schultz might need a half-hour for that.
SlipperyPete: Another awesome job. This allows me to "be at" work while also taking in all the matches.
Not certain how you do it with all of that info. Guessing I'm talking to an AI BOT that pulls in all of that concise info.
I certainly owe you a beer or 2 for your effort
I’m wondering how Iowa fans would like finishing behind Iowa State.
I would assume so since he finished out 2 + periods on it. Ice it down and tape it up. I’m sure he wants to be a 4 time AA
The injury time rule changed a few years ago to give the opponent a choice of position to keep wrestlers from faking injuries. I think the same thing should be done for lost challenges. Not an automatic point like in freestyle, but enough of a disadvantage positionally to have coaches think deeply about using them.
25.5 bonus points through session 3. Where was the thread where we were making predictions on bonus points?
I think back to 2011 and Ed Ruth’s injury.
I never thought Ed would wrestle in the Consolations, but he ended up taking 3rd in impressive fashion.
I may be wrong, but Ed’s 3rd place win might have clinched Cael’s first title. Very fuzzy on that detail.
85.5 right now.
- all six semifinalists win: +42
- half the BR matches are wins: +7
- how about two bonus points with those eight wins? +2
Puts us at 136.5
All six finalists win tomorrow night: +24
2 others take 4th: +14
How about two more bonus among those ten wins? +2
= 176.5
There’s a path. Even with no more bonus, placements can get us there.

Ahhh. Probably not, but I am happy if we wrestle like we should.
Whoever fetches you a White Claw?
