NCAA Quarterfinals Thread

Backside draws are brutal for Ayala and KY. They may win this round but AA will be tough. Abe has Geer, who owned him 1 month ago, if he can get past him Abe has a better draw.

Schultz has owned Warner, I'm afraid we're gonna see the same story unfold today.

I'm trying to stay positive but we're going to need an epic effort to stay in team race today. I think we're wrestling for 4th place at best.
 
That Latuna is about 6'4", Nicky may have to break a sweat. Hamiti/Griffin will be fun. Lots of great matches. 157 started as a snooze and it's gone downhill from there.

I would be surprised if we finished worse than 3rd, unless someone MFF’s out

We are not wrestling for 4th at best. Other teams have tough matches in the tournament also. PSU is gonna be hard to catch but it’s possible. Sadly we need them to slip up a bit in order to catch them. I fully expect we will be in second at least after tomorrow morning (barring any MFF)

Okay let’s get started. Gonna need to pull off a few seed upsets and have a few pulled off in our favor against other teams. It’s a long road, but I’m not saying never just yet.

Quarters to watch for me are:
Schultz Parris at HWT
Hamiti Griffith 165
Wilson Lovett at 149
Desanto Myers 133
To me these are the clashes of styles that could lead to some fireworks. Next round I am hoping for a Cass Schultz semi. Then a Schultz Gable final to see Gable wreck him. Which could give us a Kerk Cass third place match. Never thought HWT would be my favorite weight to watch.

How many semi finalists do we get. I’ll say 3 but feel we need 4 and most likely 5 to have a shot at PSU.

Parris looks a little off this year but wouldnt count him out against Schultz.
 
Ayala on Mat 8. DeSanto in the hole mat 6

 
Refs have been pretty decent so far. I did not see Dean match but know there was some rumblings with that.

So disappointed that KY couldn't find a way. Would've been great to see him in the semifinals.
 
Good thing this first round NIT game ended on time
I knew it was a replay, but I was still nervous it would happen. It wouldn’t surprise me,espn barely cares this is on the way it is. I mean they hired an announcer last week. Like they said….shit, who knows wrestling….well that Daniel Cormier guy gets a takedown every time in the ufc. As he sips his Starbucks while wearing an affliction t shirt.
 
Late escape for Ayala end of 2. 5-5 And Ayala starts top and let's him go. No RT.
 
Ayala with a great shot but not able to finish it. SW on Comacho. Drake gets taken down late trying to score. He's done.
