***Big 12 Wrestling Thread***

Dang... I actually liked the quick shot out of Small. I was thinking that if he could get a real quick takedown he could go for one more quick catch and release for team bonus points. Talk about backfiring... giving up a cradle in that position is a sickening. Hope he can bounce back and have a repeat performance of CKLV.

Looking at the brackets for this thing... how do #1 seeds end up having to wrestle in the pre-lims while 7 seeds get bye's? Can someone that knows a lot more than me about wrestling explain that?

Grapple said the pigtails were randomly chosen because they give teams a chance to get bonus points in the team race.

For team points. Byes get 0, so gives #1's the ability to score points

So in that sense, ISU kinda got screwed, correct? We have a lot of bye's it looks like. UNI has hardly any bye's.
