Semi's Chances

Sorensen scoring 7 points seems like a bit of a stretch
i blv he stated these are odds. 197 probably not combining for 13 points. And 133 will be more like 4-3.
My semi happiness scale
0-1 Finalist- Pissed
2 Finalists- Sedated
3 Finalists- Happy
4 Finalists- Thrilled
I think we have a shot in all 4, but would tend to think we'll end up with 2-3

Gilman 50%. Would like to go more but Tomasello is awfully good.
Clark 55-60%
Sorensen 80+%
Burak 20%
Clark 55-60%
Sorensen 80+%
Burak 20%
That goes for all of them, not just Gilman. I will be pretty upset if these guys lose and didn't take any actual shots
Gilman is on a mission. No one has ever tried to wrestle with him yet. Tomasello will be the first. Gilman takes him out 7-4.
Clark and Richards is gonna be a good one. Hope Clark gain in confidence with the win at Big Tens outweighs Richards desire for revenge. Clark has been solid. Clark wins 4-3.
Sorenson, it will be frustrating to watch and low scoring. But I think he's the better wrestler here and wins 3-1.
Burak McIntosh. Best semifinals matchup? I think it might be. Last chance for Nathan to get him. Both wrestling well. So hard to pick this. My heart wants to say Nathan 3-2. My head says McIntosh 3-2.

My penny...
I think Gilman makes a statement tonight... He's dialed right in. IF Gilman can score first, inside of the first 90 seconds, things could get real ugly for Tomasello. I'll take Gilman by 4.
Clark needs to force the action and a few early scrambles. IF he does this, Richards will fade. Unfortunately, I don't think he does. Cory still guts out another victory in OT anyway.
Sorensen will gut out a workmanlike 5-2 victory.
Burak will lose a heartbreaker in the final seconds or OT. We will want a stall call desperately against Mac late.
Brooks mollywhops Abounader.
Meyer gets another Meyer like win in another highly entertaining bout vs Rodgers.

I would be pretty happy with 3 in the finals (all of whom return next year), and 6 AA's. Really hope Meyer and Brooks have their A game for R12 tonight. If Burak can't get by Mac I want to see him 3rd. I want to see Brooks in th 3/4 match as well, and I just wanna see Meyer AA. Then I want a couple of individual titles tomorrow night.
I'll come back and eat my crow tonight if it happens but Tomasello has looked great, I say Gilman has a less than 20% chance of winning that match tonight, NT wins 5-3.
Clark/Richards, one of the two will finish a takedown and win 3-2. I'll say it's Clark tonight.
As for BS, I put him at about an 80% chance of winning tonight, I say he wins 4-2.
And finally, just can't see Burak every getting over the MM hump. It will look a lot like the Big10's, MM wins 5-3.

I flipped my coin to decide for me and the results were,
Gilman loses
Clark loses
Sorensen loses
Burak wins
I flipped it again and,
Gilman loses
Clark loses
Sorensen wins
Burak loses
I reflipped again and,
Gilman loses
Clark wins

I flipped for the last time because I'm starting to get pissed and,

I love your optimism Gobblin! Now you need to work on getting your predictions to pan out. Sometimes they don't work out as well as we would all hope.
Not trolling at all. I'm giving my honest guess. I'm picking Sorenson as the only one to advance to the finals.
Gilman: 45%...increased to 60% if he scores one TD
Clark: 70%...just don't think he liked the sh*t talking that Richards did after he beat him during the regular season
Sorenson: 90%...he just won't be taken down by anyone by Zain
Burak: 35%...what is he? 0-4? Just think McI is too tough...
Clark: 70%...just don't think he liked the sh*t talking that Richards did after he beat him during the regular season
Sorenson: 90%...he just won't be taken down by anyone by Zain
Burak: 35%...what is he? 0-4? Just think McI is too tough...
I think you're legit...though I do think Clark will make it also. But you could be spot on. I'm just curious to see if any of PSU's horses will stumble. Can't see Zain for sure. But the rest of them could at least have a couple good mountains to climb if they're going to be champs. 174 is simply crazy this year...
I'm picking 4 out of 5 wins for PSU tonight. I think Mega gets upset. If I were to pick who I think would go down next it would be Morgan to be honest although I think he wins it.
I want to see Gilman face mush Nato.
I would love that! I actually hope Iowa wins 3 of the 4 semi matches tonight.
I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.... Lol
I think PSU wins all 5 tonight with 3 bonus wins at 149, 157 and 174, with a possibility of a 4th at 125.
I don't think Mega loses tonight, if at all. He's been #2 twice, and his losses to Tom have been as a result of his (Mega's) shots, not Tom's. If Tom beats Gil, I think Mega wins it all. I also think Morgan loses tomorrow, but not tonight. And I think IMAR has Nolf's number, and if so am curious to see if Nolf moves to 165 next year. He's going to find a way to win a couple NCAAs.
Can't argue any of this because everything you say is quite possible. I think PSU ends up with 2 champs, Zain and Nickal. My favorite wrestler and the one I enjoy watching the most is Jason. I'm hoping he can pull it off but just have a gut feeling that if they meet IMar will win a close one b
I think IMar will be moving up and Nolf will stay at 157.
I don't know if Gilman wins tonight or not, but he is wrestling better than any hawkeye has since Ramos' junior year. He just happens to be in a weight with a couple of legit studs
Meyer/Rogers...Rogers is going to go for a throw and either he'll pin Meyer or Meyer will fall on top of him. C'mon Alex...one more to go.
Just curious about IMar having Nolf's number. They've split 2 matches. Nolf won by pin and IMar won in multiple OTs. Seems as though the rubber match is a toss-up.
Gilman has beaten Tomasello once upon a time and the loses have been real close. Clark can beat Richards. Sorensen will win tonight. Burak only loss 3-2 to McIntosh in the finals at the Big, and is due BIG TIME against him. The odds are not in our favor, but I like our chances. Go Hawks!!!
It's called a, "Figure Of Speech". Anyone can have anyone's number if you look it up in the phone book or call an operator.
