NCAA Quarterfinals Thread

If Seabass makes the finals against Lee, do I have to root for him? That assuming he gets past Real Woods.
 
Arizona State has some good wrestlers, but I also think they have some inflated seeds. Regardless, it’s good for the sport for them to have success. Better competition outside the big ten is a good thing.

Ugh, if you're not gonna attempt to ride at all then don't get taken down right away.
Well that’s some solid advice. I will make sure to let coach brands know that he shouldn’t have his guys give up takedowns.

Re Drake.

#1 the injury pretty much eliminates his lead shot and hampers various other things you need two good arms to do in wrestling.

#2 he is a true freshman giving up horse power and experience.

#3 he is still right in every match with all but the top 3 guys in the weight.

#4 he needs to get surgery and get healthy. He needs to get stronger. He needs to get a little better on top and bottom. His leg defense could improve some. His finishing technique needs polish. All these things are typical of true freshman let alone injured ones. He had the go ahead TD in the last match dead to rights but was a bit sloppy and got tied up.
 
Holy cow on Ayala folks. It's not like anyone is writing him off forever and ever. Injury or no injury, I just think he still has quite a ways to go to physically match the best of the best. He's young. He has time. Sorry for thinking he isn't an automatic 3x national champion.
 
Chad Red up on Ian Parker 4-1 in the 1st.

Murin and Yianni up on Mat 5
