Wrestling Officially Official 2022 Big Ten Tournament Thread

[BruceK-PSU83]

Kerk with a nice win over Parris, but not enough. UM wins the tournament by 1.5 points over PSU. The 184 finals bout was the difference, but it was due to really good balance for UM through all ten weights.

Congrats to UM, and great effort by all.

Really nice win for Kirk. He finished well after last night's match

 

[royboy]

2 MFF in the finals and both from the same team?

Hmmm

 

[backdrft76]

Thanks to @mcpat for the updates.

 

[tullfan68]

shhh

lol to bad Shak had a real injury!!

 

[ccdiver]

Aaron’s match got mostly ignored here because “Dad might be watching.” 🤩🤩😂

 

[LongJakk]

Damn. The ultra-competitive Brands brothers chose to MFF at 285. Disappointing.

Not just cass, but eirman and Kemmerer MFF too.

 

[Kale_yeah]

So the good guys lost the the big ten title by 5 seconds last night. Oh well gettem in 2 weeks.

 

[AgSurfer]

Let’s not forget about the year Penn State beat Ohio State in the dual and lost to them in the Big 10 tournament. How did the season end?

 

[Ski]

My next proposed change to NCAA rules. When the two coaches can't agree on a starting weight for duals, the default wrestling order goes from HWT down to 125 instead of the reverse. Same HWT to 125 order for the B1G Tournament too. Not that 125s can't wrestle snoozers, but too many great matches/tournaments end with low energy HWT matches.

$.02

It came down to Michigan's portal pickups at 125 and 197 scoring better than Penn State's pickups at the same weights.

Hmmm

Because that program is pure class. Lol.

 

[Random4598375]

Not just cass, but eirman and Kemmerer MFF too.

Kem is obviously actually injured. No issue with that one, but Eierman & Cass? Hmmph.

 

[Hotshoe]

125 really hurt. That weight does what's expected and we win. Congrats to Michigan.

I think our 197 won and theirs placed 3rd *shrug*

 

[razpsu]

Everyone gasped as kerk had parris going to his back but parris fought out of it.

2 mistakes tonight was taking bottom in second period by carter and brooks. Both of their guys were spent I. The first and they had riding time. Instead they took the bottom and let guys collect there breath. I think those were mistakes for riding time advantage and wearing the guys down so they didn’t have anything left in 3rd. Amine was clearly gassed most of match.

 

[creamery freak]

29- 6 Dual score and Dual team champs, suck that Michigan!

 

[District four]

How motivated will Brooks be after tonight basically Michigan pulled it out on that win. Congrats to ammine. Hope AB takes it to him next time

 

[Lion8286]

You know it's a bad year for Penn State wrestling when they only have 4 Big Ten champs, a second, and 2 thirds.

Doesn't matter hope they do brooks doesn't care I'm betting. I'm looking for a meaner Brooks in two weeks

I never think of things as mistakes at the B1Gs, even a loss is a learning moment to prep for the big dance. I think overall it was a great tournament. Hilde was the only disappointment but he had a bad day, these things happen.

Amine may have created a new animal to his demise.

 

[dsites52]

Congrats to Meatchicken. They were a point and a half better than the good guys this weekend. We’ll see how they do in Detroit.

I guess one could look at it like that but right now I wouldn’t change a thing. I’m gonna be a lot happier that Drew is on the team rather than Suriano when we are hoisting that National Championship trophy in two weeks.

 

[mcpat]

I know it’s part of wrestling and Matt Brown won NCAAs on it… but Drew was called for an 8 team points technical violation in his match against DeAugustino.

He wins in regulation without that call and collects two advancement points - one for a win there and one for the bye before it. Even if he loses the rest of his matches, he finishes 6th. That’s 8 team points total.

 

[Waxman1607]

7 top 3

 

[creamery freak]

Just a reminder ACC tournament on the ACC network now.

 

[AgSurfer]

Amine is OW. Can’t argue with that choice. He seems like a good guy too. Glad he won the bronze this summer.

 

[backdrft76]

Amine had some great interviews. I have respect for him.

 

[mcpat]

Hamiti is freshman of the year.

 

[Waxman1607]

I guess it could be worse..could be 2nd to Iowa. So there's that!

 

[Verolion]

Congrats to all the Michigan wrestlers except Nicky Transfers. You guys stepped it up. Hopefully you bring it to Nationals because Penn St will.

Nicky looked lost in their post tournament team celebrations. Almost like he was an outsider.

 

[Rip_E_2_Joe_PA]

Who let this guy on this board his negativity is bad juju

He is not a real human... he is a rogue mentally ill BOT. Do yourself a favor... Put 'It' on ignore.

 

[razpsu]

So did Penn wrestler get 7th or worse at 167? Is brooks now 2nd seed.

 

[PSUcup1]

Just a reminder ACC tournament on the ACC network now.

I guess Lewis beat Hidlay in semis

 

[mcruny42]

Just caught up.

Couple thoughts:
- ADS and RBY could wrestle for 100 more minutes and Im not sure ADS scores a takedown
- Gomez looked good, nice tournament
- Bull is so fn boring.
- Ref hit AB for stalling for no reason, which was ridiculous.

 

[mn78psu83]

He is not a real human... he is a rogue mentally ill BOT. Do yourself a favor... Put 'It' on ignore.

I put "It" on Ignore with each new handle that popped up after "It" was banned. Must be five or six times.

 

[AgSurfer]

And everyone seems reasonably healthy for the Big Show. With 3 MFFs, Iowa might have some more problems.

 

[lions#1]

It came down to Michigan's portal pickups at 125 and 197 scoring better than Penn State's pickups at the same weights.

You’re right on 125
23 - Suriano, 0 - Drew

You’re wrong on 197
12 - Brucki, 19 - Max and Big10 Champ
