No reason we can’t go 80%+ this session.

 

[Cylife]

What’s this version of Gaitans chances against minto? There’s a path…

 

[Htowncyfan]

These summaries are incredibly helpful. Thanks Shadow.

 

[jkbuff98]

Day 2 - 9 guys alive - Let’s Go !

 

[CyCity]

Let’s make some noise this session!

 

[Nutt3r_Butt3r]

I like the Minto matchup for Gaitan, winnable.

 

[CycloneVet]

I like the Minto matchup for Gaitan, winnable.

Would love a headlock out of absolutely nowhere to plant him

 

[Joeylee]

gaitan looks confident. so does euton even with the loss. lots to still be happy about. clearly people forgot last year already

 

[CycloneCarl5]

Anyone else hear that Rocky tore his ACL at big 12s?

 

[stuclone]

Anyone else hear that Rocky tore his ACL at big 12s?

Dresser said in his post session interview last night that Rocky tore his knee/leg up in the last 30 seconds of the Big 12 final. He said he’ll go into more specifics when Rocky is done in the tournament

 

[mj4cy]

Damn somehow I missed Rocky lost.....brutal.

MJ “All he needs is a head and an arm” Gaitan.

That knee is beyond gone.

Minto is tough. He pushes Haines every single time they wrestle. He is going to be tough, but MJ looks as good as I’ve ever seen him. I’m sure MJ will let it fly!

 

[CloneFanInKC]

That knee is beyond gone.

It’s amazing he finished the Novak match like he did a walk off the mat.

 

[stuclone]

Adrenaline is a hell or a drug

 

[theshadow]

Early mat assignments...

Poulin/Terukina on deck, Mat 1

Grice/Ferrara in the hole, Mat 7

Echemendia/Stanich in the hole, Mat 4

When the time comes, Gaitan/Minto should be on Mat 5 and Bastida/Kueter on Mat 3

 

[SolarGarlic]

I was catching up on the Session 2 thread and thought we must've been out of the top 10 and had 4 guys left. Losing Elam on the front side is a big downer, but still plenty left to wrestle for. I was hoping for a top 5. That doesn't look likely, but not out of the question right now.
