Schedule is out for 2018-19...
- Thread starter Tim Owen/BWI staff
- Start date
JP, over at BSD, does a nice breakdown of the schedule here.
Will the Iowa fans be able to drive to Columbus? You know how they whine about having to fly anywhere for nationals.
@jtothemfp puttin' narrative to all that info--great job per usual. One note (My BSD login isn't working, or I'd post a comment there): you don't mention Ok St at the Scuffle. Seems to be the lone big fish other than us going (though I guess them sending starters isn't clear yet). Or do you know something we don't?
Okie St has had the Scuffle on their schedule and not sent their starting lineup once. That of course being last year. When Smith put his schedule out there was doubt to whether or not Penn State would be returning to the Scuffle and of course there was the opportunity to take his team to Italy.
This year there is no conflict on their schedule and I would bet a quarter Cael and Coach Smith probably had a conversation to make sure they were on the same page.
Everything indicates the Scuffle should be a PSU OSU showdown.

They are safe. Tom obviously doesn't want his crew bytch slapped by Cael's fun loving crew until he is mandated to deal with it.Will the Iowa fans be able to drive to Columbus? You know how they whine about having to fly anywhere for nationals.
He mentioned in the comments that it wasn't clear what part of the team Smith was going to send to the Scuffle. Probably because Okie State is also going to Reno 11 days prior to the Scuffle. Not a conflict per se but not many teams send all their starters to both.
Nah, I don't know anything secret these days. Nitlion & Tikk gave excellent answers tho. Reno at 11 days away is the only thing that kept me from citing them. Well, that and the interesting prospects of Iowa State & Lock Haven.
The SBN login can be a bear sometimes, especially if you had at one time set up the 2factor authentication. Here's a link to their help form: https://www.sbnation.com/pages/contact
I had to use it once to get them to reset something on their end, before my 2fa would function correctly again. Good luck! We'd love to see you commenting over there again sometime.
But maybe you know the secret of how “three [tOSU] wrestlers ... combined for 16 All-American placements and four National Championship placements.“
(I’m guessing it involves division by positive infinity. )Math aside, that was a well-written article!

I wish NC State would go to the Scuffle since it's pretty close for them. Last year they wrestled OSU at the time of the Scuffle and didn't wrestle again until 1/19. Their schedule isn't out yet so maybe there is hope they will join the fun?

Snap! Dang, thanks Dogwelder!
They're joining the South Beach Duals this year, on 12/29 & 12/30, so probably unlikely to also join the Scuffle 2 days later.
I doubt the Scuffle will go away, but certainly the level if competition has been affected.
Article on national broadcasts of Penn State wrestling this coming season here.
Penn State's home dual with Lehigh on Sunday, Dec. 2, will air nationally on the BTN. The dual will take place in Rec Hall and starts at 1:30 p.m. Arizona State comes to Penn State for a dual in Rec Hall on Friday, Dec. 14, for a 6 p.m. dual that will air live nationally on ESPN2. The 2018 BJC Dual against Michigan on Friday, Feb. 1, will air on the BTN. The dual in the 16,000-seat venue begins at 7 p.m.
The Nittany Lions trek to Columbus, Ohio, to take on Ohio State on Friday, Feb. 8, at 8:30 p.m. and the dual will also air on the BTN. In addition, the Big Ten Network will air the Big Ten Championships live on Sunday, March 10. The entire two-day tournament will also stream live on BTN2go/BTN-Plus. ESPN and its family of networks will once again air the entire three-day NCAA Championships on March 23-25 from Pittsburgh's PPG Paints Arena. ESPN will announce details of its ever-expanding coverage later.

Great for the sport! A little early for maximum exposure but it's a step forward. More interest in duals would be a wonderful thing. As much as I like Nationals, duals remain the heart of the sport for me.

PSU once again growing the sport with a dual on ESPiN2
Would be nice if they could do something for DT there that day so during the break the NLWC could get some pub on national TV for the Gold he brought home. Im sure the producers at ESPiN will do something
Thank you Tikk.
Since March, I "cut the cord" and canceled Comcast cable TV. I know this topic has been addressed in the past in various posts on this forum and I apologize for asking again, but since I'm still somewhat new to not having Comcast, how can I watch the matches on BTN and ESPN2 without Comcast? I have an Amazon Fire Stick.

Couple of questions on the schedule....
1. What early season events are coming up that PSU may send red/grayshirts, etc. to?
2. Looking at the schedule on gopsusports.com and 3 matches (Kent St, Nebraska and Buffalo) are listed as available on Lionvision. What is Lionvision and is it a free live stream?

The Nebraska dual is also listed on Flo so I assume it will be a BTN StudentU production and available on BTN Plus and Flo. I would be surprised if Penn State offered it free on Lionvision too, although that's what the schedule says.
Ahhh, yes, I believe it was. Has he been active recently? Did a quick search and he hasnt posted since July but has been on the site recently.
@ItalianLion your services are needed.

I know Mr. Lion well...will reach out to him. By May or so of next year, I'll have a bit more time on my hands and might be able to help...though that's for next year

Retirement looming? If so, congratulations. I have about 12 years for me.
We put more butts in Rec Hall seats than Pitt football puts in Heinz Field seats.
Of course PSU wrestlers would make Pitt football players cry in a game of dodgeball.
Big boss has a say
, but I am getting close. We'll see...it's not an easy decision...
