WE'RE TALKIN' WRESTLEBALL: NCAA Tourneys, Saturday Edition

The team title's in the bag already, having been secured with a dominant performance in last night's semifinal round.  Tonight's finals are all about individual glory.  For Dennis and Borschel, it's one final chance to cap off their Iowa careers with the biggest prize of all: a national championship.  For McDonough and Marion, it's a chance to put the finishing touches on their impressive debut seasons for Iowa and to serve notice to the rest of the country that this is the future of Iowa wrestling.  And for Metcalf, it's one last shot to solidify his legacy, to atone for a pair of painful upset losses (last year's national championship finals and this year's Big Ten finals), and to write one last chapter in the incredible story of his Hawkeye career.

And while these matches are primarily about individual glory, there's one last bit of team history that this year's team can make.  The team (and NCAA) record for most champions from a single team is five (done by Iowa in 1986 and 1997).  This year's team obviously can't better that mark, but they can tie it, which would certainly solidify this team as one of the all-time greats in Iowa history.  The odds are stacked against them: they'll be facing five very good opponents tonight (three of whom the Iowa wrestlers are very, very familiar with and who have provided some of the stiffest challenges of their careers) and in terms of seeding they'll be underdogs in all but one of the matches.  Is it likely?  Of course not.  But after seeing what Borschel did last night, coming back and winning a match in which he should have been dead and buried, can you absolutely positively rule it out?  I can't.

Session VI (Championship matches) begins at 6:30pm CST. TV coverage on ESPN (in HD, even).  There's also radio coverage (KXIC if you're in or around Iowa City; Hawkeye All-Access ($) via the intewebs otherwise) or liveblogs/Twitter updates.  Liveblogs: Andy Hamilton at Hawk Central; KJ Pilcher at the Gazoo.  Twitter: (P-C) Andy_Hamilton, (Gazoo) kjpilcher, (DI) jtbugos and rcyou.

Feel free to chat about whichever NCAA Tournament you happen to be watching.

When did I become a fan of UNI basketball?

I am sitting here, nervous and screaming about a basketball game involving an team from Iowa, so obviously it must be the Hawkeyes… wait a second it’s UNI. When in the hell did I start rooting for UNI? Oh well… Go Panthers.

He gives me a big Brunner vibe.

So I approve of him wholeheartedly.

Although my favorite (by far) UNI player is Lucas O’Rear, who could not be any more Irish unless he was guarding a pot of gold or literally pounding back pints on the court.

Not yet

There’s a long way to go. It’s looking promising though.

By the way, not in the BHGP bracket game, but in one I did with my family, I picked UNI over Kansas. Mostly because I figured my dad would have Kansas winning it all, and this was my only chance to beat him.

Of course I want all 5 of them to win

But there are two that I really want:
Metcalf to avenge his only loss this season, and to overcome some recent big-match demons.
Borschel to finish undefeated.

My roommate in law school was Canadian

One time he came back from home with a case (or, as the crazy Canucks call it, a "two-four’) of a beer that came in plain cans with just the word “BEER” on it. To this day I don’t know where he got it.

And everyone knows with the Simpsons it’s Duff! Can’t get enough of that wonderful Duff!

A buddy of mine

came back from Germany with a beer called Kerner Pils. It was to be drank warm. My buddies and I choked it down one night at a party and turned back to drinking Bud Light. That was the last time I drank a beer brought back from a foreign country. You could chew it. I am content with the offerings that the Boston Brewing Company brings forth.

Sam Adams brews are really hit or miss with me. When they’re good, they’re excellent, when the miss they’re undrinkable. And their commercials annoy the living fuck out of me.

I find that hard to believe

since lagers are really the only beers intended to be consumed very cold (40-45 degrees). Are you sure your buddy wasn’t a) full of shit or b) the subject of a joke by zee Germans that sold it to him?

On his future in wrestling

“It’s not over yet. There are multiple world and Olympic championships ahead to aim for. How many (Olympic) gold medals did Tom Brands win? One. How many did Dan Gable win? One. Now I’ve got to win two. (Freestyle) will be in the works, with myself and Coach Brands. I know there will be some down time, just to feel good about this and move on, to end this chapter and move on to the next. I’d like to be at Iowa, continuing to train.”

I think if ESPN makes it a priority

they could bring wrestling to heights never achieved nationally. And, given the number of stations, they just might make it a little side hobby. The Big Ten Network also needs to sacrifice some women’s volleyball (show it taped at midnight) and focus more on wrestling. I thought ESPN (who I hate) covered this years tourney very nicely.

Awards time

Jayson Ness- Most Outstanding Wrestler
Barry Davis- Coach of the Year

by shada's revenge on Mar 20, 2010 9:45 PM CDT reply actions  

What?

Barry Davis? Did Wisconsin perform above and beyond their expectations? Even if Iowa was expected to dominate, how does anyone deny Brands after consecutive undefeated dual seasons?

by The Mexican't on Mar 20, 2010 10:44 PM CDT up reply actions  

Wisco did finish 4th, which is probably ahead of expectations.

That’s ahead of Ohio State, Okie State, and Minnesota, for starters.

I think he also got it because of his personal story – his brother disappeared this year and is presumed dead.

I agree, in terms of actual accomplishments, it should have been Brands in a walk. Undefeated season, Midlands title, National Duals title, National title, and looking so dominant the whole way… that’s pretty sensational stuff.

I don't mean to sound greedy.

I love Barry Davis. His passion for the sport is great, and I’m all for him winning the award if Wisconsin finished well above expectations. I just didn’t expect it. Seeing him tear up after Howe won nearly got me. I guess I should’ve stuck with a congratulations.

Ness was a desperation move away from being pretty soundly defeated

that loss was gutwrenching for Dennis. I am still hurting over it. I would have named the Missouri kid the MOW of the tourney.

I live in Rock Island and have a GREAT care for Iowa wrestling! But if you went to a bar in The District and expected to see Wrestling on TV, then you didn’t care enough about Iowa wrestling to stay home and watch it.
