Flo's top ten teams all-time

[jammenz]

https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/6245696-the-top-10-ncaa-teams-of-all-time

2001 Minnesota Golden Gophers are runner-ups.
A Penn State team manages to make the list, although farther down.

 

[GogglesPaizano]

It looks like they removed it - probably temporarily. I hope they look at our 2017 fab 5 team inclusive of he who should not be named. If not for a freak injury we likely would have had 6 national champions, and a run at the all time highest team score.

2017 Nits were 5th.

If there was a tournament I didn’t see that I wish I did, it’s 2001. Minnesota goes into the Belly of the Beast and wins it in the wrestlebacks. Sat morning must have been nuts.

 

[LemonPie]

getting recruits to wash any memory of the 2001 Gophers has been Cael’s greatest feat. Starts to get a little easier now that many of them weren’t born yet.

Oddly enough, I've gone to two DI national tournaments, and that was the last one that I went to. I also had tickets in the Minnesota section, as my family hooked me up with them.

Yes, nuts is an understatement-especially given where I was sitting-but it also led to my loathing of Minnesota. Comparable in belligerence factor to the Sqwawkeye fans.

Meh....abstract construct.....or is it artificial construct? Double meh.....you choose!

Hartung talking about the previous year in Keeper of the Flame "Those little pricks from Iowa. Schwab came by with the trophy and pumped it at us with a shit-eating grin on his face. I just wanted to snap his neck".

Jammenz’s link leads to a page that says:

“Whoops! That page does not exist.”

I guess the link is like those Minny T-shirts that talk of championships that do not exist ...

 

[jammenz]

CP & Smalls probably made Spey take it down after he had ranked Minny at #2.

Flo IT trolling spey? OR....Spey firing back black ops style?

 

[El-Jefe]

Minnesota runner-up ... where have we heard that before?

 

[jammenz]

Perhaps during their legendary five year run where they won 3 Natty Dual titles and finished 2nd twice: Okie St 20- MN 17, and IA St 17- MN 16.

On a related note--our football team was really amazing in 1994. Man, I love history.

 

[Dogwelder]

Remember when Portugal had a great seafaring empire? Me neither.

 

[y2jriden]

Interesting, 10 AA and no finalists. Not how we would have done it.

It does get old sitting there Saturday morning, waiting for the finals thinking, damn I wish we had some more consy semifinalists here

What is a "Natty Dual Title"? Is that a recognized NCAA championship somewhere?(other than the mind of Jammenz)

I think it's related to the Natty Wagon.

Yes, all-time greatest team does require history.

Winner gets a case of Natty Boh.

It is the JRob Artificially Abstracted Construct Format Invitational Dual Tournament.

Rumor has it Jammy called the NCAA and ask if he made a small donation to the NCAA could they announce "runner-up Minnesota Gophers" just once sometime during the tournament. Just so Jammy and other Gopher fans can hear it spoken out loud.

I thought wrestling started in 2011.

Congrats to Minnesota on cracking the top 10!

Probably Alex Steen told Flo that you can't do a cut-and-paste of his original TOM article. "However, the top five stand alone." 5th Minny, 4th & 3rd Okie St, Iowa top 2.

 

[RVARZR]

Two thoughts.

1) With a healthy Suriano it would have been very tough not to put the 2017 Lions #1.

2) Flo is really driving home the point that duals don't matter.

 

[PSUaggie]

2001-iPod, Enron,Bonds hits 73 homers, the 1st Fast and Furious, Nickelback and Minny wins. It's been awhile.

And our incoming freshmen class were a year old in 2001. These same kids spent their middle and high school years watching Penn State win national titles.

Because that’s what they do. You go to middle school and high school, you watch Penn State win national titles.

You go to Minnesota, you watch Penn State win national titles.

 

[nitlion6]

If you go to Minnesota you watch Penn State win national championships as well as every dual they take the mat for. That is pretty darn good, but in Minnesota for some that is the ultimate.

 

[WildTurk]

You go to Minnesota to catch Walleye and a cold

 

[baccafarmer]

Flo promotes the concept of National Duel Championships in “click bait” way that adds very little to a serious discussion. They downplay the importance of in-season duals and seemingly dismiss the pure joy that fans experience in the campus setting. National Duals .... what’s the next concept that Flo is gonna promote?

 

[El-Jefe]

I'd "catch a cold" pretty quick too if some Minnysohtan stuck a plate of lutefisk in front of me.
