Another psu record to set
- Thread starter Franklinstheman
- Start date
Not if it's on a Monday night versus Rutger.
Depends on how f’in greedy they charge for parking ? You would think those cow pastures would be pd for by now. 😂
After going out to Blue White game 2 weeks ago and trying to tailgate in a scene from "Twister".
I prefer a double header in Bryce Jordan with 2 admissions. The Afternoon session against a Military Academy team with patriotic theme. Discounted admission (Free) for youth programs. Evening session against good Big Ten opponent, with season ticket holders getting a seat as there package.
That's 34k of spectators for the day, without hearing Dorothy screaming "Auntie Em"😏

If we hold a dual in Beaver, it has to be against Iowa for two reasons.
1. It would definitely draw the biggest crowd ever for a wrestling dual.
2. It would break Iowa's record for biggest crowd when they held the dual against Ok State in Kinnick stadium. 😈

I dunno, Iowa really needs to get their sh*t together and start putting together better lineups in order for that to occur. Their teams going forward don't appear too promising.
Looking ahead, tOSU may be the better option.
That will never happen because Brands would never agree to it for the exact reasons you mentioned.
Do they have a choice when the Big 10 schedules Iowa for an away dual vs Penn State? And if Brands tried to back out, he would be pretty hard pressed to give a valid reason.
PS - as much as we like to dump on Brands on this board, I honestly don't think he is that petty. Plus, Iowa doesn't have a venue anywhere close to the size of Beaver Stadium. If we held the dual there, Iowa would still be part of the biggest attendance record for a dual meet.

Ask Kevin Dresser if he thinks Brands is petty
Brands' would offer up the reason that PSU owes Iowa a match in Kinnick first.
damn you. That was my exact thought. Oranges and all.
Or when PSU went to Iowa when they didn't have to do so, but Brands wouldn't return the favor to PSU. Wrestling Our Sisters of the Quad Cities was more pressing.

You’re obviously confused. I was over on GIA earlier looking at next seasons prediction thread and they have 2 champs and 5 other AA’s already. Come October they could be looking at 10 champs. 😎
If Brands was willing to basically kill the National Duals concept so he didn't have to wrestle the program he nearly destroyed, does anyone think he's hesitate for a second to do something that would save his current program great embarrassment?
If you want to read something even funnier, go to the Rutgers board and check out the thread on next year's Rutgers lineup.
Ayala is obvious, but who in the world is their second fantasy pick?
There are Big10 matchups wrestled in November/December, just not many. If PSU and Iowa wanted this to happen it would.
Better choice is ask Iowa State. Let the Cyclones be part of the the attendance record.
The thing I respect about HR/GIA is their consistency. No matter the reality of the situation the can jiggle enough synaptic pathways loose to allow them to find multiple champs, numerous AAs and 150 team points. Part of the enjoyment associated with the PSU dominance run is the ridiculous expectations and hope those goofballs have every year and their inevitable collective disappointment.
This will be a non-conference dual for the trip to State College that Iowa still owes PSU.
Another reason it won't happen. Brands won't wrestle Penn State unless he is forced to.
