Doubt it on Carter..not sure how far he is from 100 wins, but I know he wants to hit that if possible..saw in interview earlier in year, Carter tried to convince Cael to put him in open tourney. I don't see Kerk missing either..as long as they healthy, they want to take mat..
Per Penn State Wrestling Club, Carter is currently 90-4. Those four losses include the two Medical Forfeit losses he took at the B1G tournament last year. Not counting those two uncontested losses last year, if Carter runs the table this year he would join Zain as the last NCAA wrestler to go three straight years undefeated and would be looking at 98 (90+8 for the B1G and NCAA tournaments) career wins. If 100 wins matters to Carter and/or the coaches I would imagine he is going to wrestle at least a few more matches this regular season.

Considering a few extra seconds to try and get a pin caused an injury leading to those forfeits, I would be shocked on a level 10 if he wrestled extra minutes or matches to get a number that doesn’t matter at all. 5 NC’s is all that matters.

Problem is they are counted so you can't really change that.

After Carter wrestles against Iowa on Friday he would only have to wrestle one of the remaining five regular season matches to still be in the running for 100 career victories. Color me shocked if he sits those last five matches.

FIFY You forgot to include the 1 point deduction to the Iowa team score after Arnold throws a temper tantrum because he got stomped.

I think you're counting his 18-0 record from his redshirt year.

Carter is 105-4 per wrestle stat. That is his covid year and red shirt year as well
 
Iowa will wrestle tough because Iowa always wrestles tough. Penn State will wrestle fun because Penn State always wrestles fun, until mid March when they wrestle tough too. In Mid-March this is an 8-2 or better dub for PSU. On Friday it’s prob 7-3 ish and maybe 6-4 if someone is sleeping.

They weren’t med FFTs. They were injury Defaults. The matches lasted 0:01 and were wrestled officially and unfortunately.

mcpat, Is there a bar in the Harrisburg area that shows PSU wrestling? My plans to go up Friday just died. Would be fun to yell with others for this match.

Guy on the InterMat forum posted/made this. Laughed pretty hard.

Bernie’s comment “needs a Bonnie voiceover” is not a surprise.

I can’t say I’ve ever watched PSU wrestling at a bar. I’ll be at BJC. Thanks for asking though.

A lot of places that have multiple TVs carry BTN in their package. You can usually get one of the bar tenders to switch one of the TVs to BTN when the dual starts.

FYI - Zach Nevills and I watched the 2018 Ohio State vs PSU dual at a good restaurant/sports bar. We were standing and yelling when Nick got the first TD against Snyder and held him to a decision.

The Wharf on Derry St has a big McDevitt Wrestling banner out front. I've never gone there to watch wrestling, but might be worth a shot.

A quick search shows a few sports bars in the Harrisburg area. I have to imagine it wouldn't be hard to get the match on one of their screens.

Where is The Wharf? Towards downtown or near Paxtang? I haven’t been to Harrisburg in about 20 years so I’m not very familiar with what’s popular there these days.

I do remember The Spot and those awesome subs you could buy there!

Sorry to get this thread of topic. I know underdog sports bar has the BigTen network. Been to the Wharf for music but never for sports. Thanks all.

You're right. I used the wrong term. The rules changed for the 2023-2024 season to this: "Medical Forfeits (Rule 2.3.12.b). Changes the first medical forfeit to a loss on the wrestler’s individual season record form, except when a medical forfeit occurs immediately following an injury default."

Can’t wait until Friday evening! I told my wife that 5 to 7 pm AZ time is blocked off and not negotiable. What are the odds that some last second urgent and can’t wait honey do pops up at 4:45 PM? 😖
You are a funny guy (gif insert here).
