CKLV Invite IS STACKED

[crablegs]

Bonus on Amine would be an extremely difficult task.

Just went through his wrestlestat and Cam Amine has never been bonused in his career.

I like our chances with Yonger coming through in the last match to take the title.

Good point. Didn't even look to see who his opponent was

 

[JM4CY]

Bonus by Carr might be huge. Carr might be only one favored for us. Nebraska would be favored in their finals matches

That still sticks in my craw

 

[buf87]

I would think both Yonger & Frost will have decent chances to win also

Early season wake up call for Ech. Let’s hope he takes it and uses it going forward.

He had a pretty hard cut this morning.

And Feldkamp has a pinners chance. Not counting any of our guys out!

Personally I love the 3 pt TD. Just need to make a step out an auto stall call and no other stalling calls on the feet. I'd also eliminate stalling on the mat but have auto restart after 1 minute of ride (unless a wrestlers back is exposed) and every 30 seconds after that. This takes inconsistent stall calls out of the equation. I'd bet the ref's would love this change.

Oh I’m totally with you. I love the 3 point takedown. It just doesn’t make sense that a reversal is only worth 2 with a takedown being worth 3.

I wouldn’t mind that change either with the RT. Something needs to be done there too.

Did they get a pound today or was it scratch?

Was the kid stalling?

Is the sky blue?

Keck is so darn solid, but Feldkamp vs Munoz proved anything can happen

 

[buf87]

Is the sky blue?

Kind gray and overcast in Algona!!!

 

[CloneFanInKC]

I don't know how they would have gotten 2 swipes on that for back points.

According to this thread, the 4 swipes against ISU earlier (Casey I think?) was a bad call.

I can see David getting 2 swipes.

Think it’s going to be a struggle for MJ this year. Had a really rough day.

Stanford kid was on his legs at will.

Mj hurt his left arm and had a pretty big wrap on it. Looked like he couldn’t straighten his elbow out. Some time off for yheee guys is coming at the right time

Does duck with a boner drag weeds?

So I’m taking a break and waiting to go back in, and I just want to say this in regards to this tournament and the sport that we all love:

I know officiating is a tough job, I did it albeit not at the college level, so I get it. But holy Christ on a Bike, the officiating thus far in this season, including this tournament, has been substandard to say the least.

And it’s not just ISU matches, there are upset coaches and fans and wrestlers from all over right now. I don’t know if it’s a mechanics issue or if they are instructed to let it play out and then go to a monitor for a 7 minute review, but the system is broken and it’s killing the sport.

Rant over

Going from a no reaction time takedown last year to an unspecified reaction time takedown this year seems confusing

I’m really confused (not knowing the rule adjustments for this season). I am aware of the TD moving from 2 or 3, but am not aware of the details regarding reaction time consideration.

So are the refs.

Last year as soon as criteria for a takedown were met, it is a takedown. This year the refs give the opponent an unspecified amount of time to react.
