National Duals Announcement Thread
- Thread starter Vallholl
- Start date
Well, either that or the Pac12 decided to schedule their conference tournament at the last minute.
pennstateWREST@pennstateWRESTQuick update! We will know our foe for next Sunday's 5pm NWCA Dual Meet Championship match in Rec Hall either late tonight or tomorrow!
It's scheduled for 2/27. I don't know, but would guess that was set some time ago.
CSU Bakersfield would have been the representative had the Pac-12 not abstained.
It sounds like Okie State (at least posters) don't want to participate for a couple of reasons 1) due to injuries at 157/174 (Crutch in a walking boot) , 2) B1G team gets most of the $, 1/2 of all $ gotes to NCWA and only travel money to the non-big ten and 3) protect seeds / don't show too much to PSU.
Either way, the lack of announcement seems to indicate that they haven't finalized the teams yet...

Not saying anything...just going to post this here and see who can spot the errors first...
Much like the Iowa High School Team Duals I hope that teams either decline or show up and wrestle backups. This event is a GD joke.
An opportunity to wrestle a tough opponent, get better and improve your NCAA seed? Clearly something to run away from.
Why do I get the sense that non BIG 10 schools are not over the moon about the Duel Series format of the BIGs vs the rest of the country?
I wonder how they'll do it next year?
The Fun teams vs the Face Mushers?

So...obviously no announcement tonight.
I don't want to be overly negative, but this is amateur hour stuff. Sheesh.

I agree, definitely amateur hour. There was supposed to be an announcement today. Did the powers that be make an announcement today that there wouldn't be an announcement?
And why did we have to pay $15 for a ticket but Indiana is $5? I get the quality of competition thing and the market factors, but if this is a national thing , shouldn't the prices be the same? More clown stuff for an event that will not be in existence in 2017

I'm not buying tickets until I know who we wrestle. Because that's the cheap bastard I am.
Is there really a team between NC State, VT, OSU, and Mizzu that you wouldn't go see Iowa wrestling in Carver?
Is this really that bad of a setup for the B1G teams? Other than us going undefeated and beating common opponents by pretty much the same or more than PSU and not getting any #1 votes. Not knowing who we are wrestling a week from the date. Having to do it on a Monday. Having season ticket holders buy another ticket...
Ok it is a shat show.
But it is a chance for a decent dual in Carver. Something that has been few and far between the last few years.

I believe Iowa State and Minnesota were already scheduled for the 19th. Now the NWCA splits the gate?
Great Matchup. Stoll and Rhoades get smoked-no harm...Brooks can beat Renda again and that should help him come nationals. Brody has a huge opportunity in front of him and we can really see where is. Jack has been pretty darn consistent and is a big 41 pounder like Brody. We should also be able to gauge Coopers progress in the absolutely loaded 157.
