***NCAA Wrestling Championships (Thu.-Sat.)***

I notice ESPN still doesn’t have the mats included on their app tiles. How f’ing hard is it?

Once things get underway, it looks like Terukina will be the 3rd match on Mat 6.

For those of you interested, I wrote a notebook of storylines I thought were important and some fun ones - https://cyclonefanatic.com/2022/03/notebook-story-lines-to-follow-at-the-ncaa-championships/

What is everyones predictions on AA's? I think a great showing would be 4, but I think we have 6 guys with potential if they wrestle to their ability.

My AA prediction is 2.

In my ideal world, we'd see Carr, Coleman, Degen, and Parker for sure AA. But, given the bracket draws I know that isn't going to be the easiest thing to see accomplished.

I think Bastida has a solid chance to as well

I. Am. Fired. Up.

On February 5th, I texted @jcordova8 and said "Marcus Coleman AA". I stand by that. Carr is a given. I think we may sneak 1 more in there, but I'm gonna go with 2.

I need to get through this corn line at the elevator & get home. Glad we don’t have pigtail matches. Don’t think I make it home by 11

Time for the four greatest words in sports:

WRESTLERS, CLEAR THE MATS!

So how are people going to watch this thing? ESPNU? Or individual matches on ESPN3? Can you watch on ESPN+? What are the best matches that start at 11 to watch?

Ready to go here. I wish they would give some telecast pre-event on ESPN. I am always scrambling at the last minute to get multiple screens set up, etc.

I have ESPN+ but it still made me log in through a tv provider. I'm watching matcast to see all mats then when ISU is up opening a new tab to that mat. @shadow linked the mats on the first page for easy access.

Iowa State Wrestling Twitter account is probably the easiest

I have mat cast for all 8 screens on my smart tv. I have 3 browsers open on my computer - one for CF, one for ESPN+ for the ISU mat, and one for Trackwrestling to follow the mat assignments. My phone and Kindle Fire for backup. Sent the wife and kids to another state!
