FYI: If you want to see some of yesterday's action, Hawkeye Nation has some great videos of the semifinal matches, including Metcalf v. Molinaro, Gomez v. Dennis (which had a nuts ending), and McDonough v. Sanders.
Same rules apply as other open threads, so be nice. Let's do this.
TEAM SCORING BREAKDOWN* 1st-16;2nd-12;3rd-10;4th-9; 5th-7;6th-6;7th-4;8th-3;
* Each fall, forfeit, default, disqualification-2;
* each advancement in championship round-1;
* each advancement in consolation round-1/2;
* tech fall (w/ near fall)-1 1/2;
* tech fall (w/o near fall)-1;
* major decision-1;
* bye followed by a win in championship-1;
* bye followed by a win in consolation-1/2.
NCAA QUALIFICATION UPDATE
* The following wrestlers have already qualified for the NCAA Tournament: McDonough, Dennis, Metcalf, Borschel, Keddy, Beatty, and Erekson
* MARION: MUST WIN FIRST CONSOLATION MATCH (against Schmitt); B10 only auto-qualifies top 4 finishers at 141 after LOLinois' Ryan Prater was bounced from this tourney for not making weight; a loss to Schmitt will put Marion in the 5th place match.
* KERR: MUST WIN FIRST CONSOLATION MATCH (against Johnson); B10 only auto-qualifies top 4 finishers at 157 and a loss will put Kerr into the 5th place match.
* MORNINGSTAR: MUST WIN EITHER FIRST CONSOLATION MATCH (against Young) OR 5TH-PLACE MATCH; B10 auto-qualifies top 5 finishers at 165.
* That said... both Marion and Morningstar would likely receive wildcard entries if they failed to lock up an automatic qualification spot. Kerr probably would NOT receive a wildcard entry.
RECORDS VS. SUNDAY OPPONENTS
125: Never fought; both McD and Escobedo are undefeated, so this should be a hell of a match.
133: Dennis is 2-1 lifetime against Ness, but Ness beat him pretty solidly (8-4) at the dual last month.
141: Marion is 1-0 against Schmitt, having defeated him 11-4 at last month's dual; of course, Marion also defeated Thorn 15-7 at last month's dual and then lost 12-3 today, so caveat emptor.
149: Metcalf is 4-0 lifetime against Palmer, but they've all been fairly close thanks to Palmer's strong defense and stall-a-riffic style.
157: Kerr did not wrestle Johnson at this year's dual meet; Janssen did and won 12-4
165: Never fought.
174: Borschel is 2-0 lifetime against Glasser, with both results being major decision wins (including 14-2 at last month's dual).
184: Never fought.
197: Never fought.
Hwt: Never fought.
And, finally, a note of congratulations to our neighbors to the west for pulling yet another EPIC FAIL in the finals of a tournament. Iowa State placed six wrestlers in the finals of the Big 12 5 Championships last night, managed to win only two of those matches (and lost two in which they were fairly strongly favored), and wound up dropping the team title to Oklahoma State, 70.5 points to 69 points. Grape job, Cyclones!

Apparently there is a coupon code for a month of All-Access, for those who want to listen to the earlier stuff.
the CBS Hawkeyes All Sports Pass is the monthly pay deal that I have, I use it all the time.
a free month, especially with all the wrestling & both Basketball teams playing today is a pretty good deal. sometimes over the summer i’ll put on a football game from last fall, just to pass the time until football season starts.

1-4 in the first half. Not good, but it also probably doesn’t matter a whole lot.
We're still going to win the team title.

Metcalf let him hang around
then got in a bad spot in a scramble in front of the OSU coaches and they helped the orange douche get the TD plus near fall
We are not sandbagging.
We’re just not doing very well.
To be fair, McD and Dennis lost to guys who are probably just plain better than they are.
Metcalf got flat-out upset by a guy with a better gameplan than he had.
But all the Iowa guys look too tight right now. Which is a little odd, b/c the team title isn’t even in doubt. They shouldn’t be worrying about that.

He does have a big-ass tape-job on his knee — hopefully that isn’t screwing with him too much.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Sometimes countershooters and riders win matches
they shouldn’t
just a scramble that went the wrong way
I don't think he's got any excuses.
He was just flat out beat today. Palmer did a great job of riding him for 90 seconds in the second and got out quickly. Metcalf put himself into some bad spots and Palmer capitalized.

The nits are under the impression that they're going to take over soon.
I don’t think it’ll be next year, though. Sanderson has a great class coming in, they’re probably still 2 years out.

Excuse me while I go vomit.

Well, that is not a happy team photo.

Wonder if they'll even bother posting it as a splash page.
Probably focus more on the two individual champions.

Not the best picture, but anyway:

Quote from Coach, "We've got some explaining to do."
Translation: next week is not going to be much fun for the underachievers.

Lady bucks are getting a lil chippy.
Refs really letting them play. Not something I’d expect from a ladies’ game.

thanks for nothing. i was enjoying a team that will win today, not one that won't

Listening from another room, and it definitely sounds like the officials want nothing to do with a blowout.
Lots of calls going against Iowa. 3 consecutive offensive fouls seems a bit unusual. Is Bluder’s bunch just playing with reckless abandon and running everyone over?
I'm just not seeing it.
OSU seems to be reaching on every possession, but the officials are chalking up all the loose balls to lazy dribbling. I guess I don’t watch enough basketball to know what a foul actually looks like.

Are OSU fans really doing the Seven Nation Army chant at a women's bball game?
They really try too hard.

for WBB? It would be up to the selection committee...
I’ve heard rumors that with the strong showing at the tourney, they shouldn’t have a problem getting in, but who knows.
I gotta think
If we were on the bubble, their performance in this tourney should be enough… but it’s women’s basketball, and I have no idea.

Basketball open thread is here, if you want it.
Can’t imagine why you would.
