2011 Midlands Championships, Day Two: Finals Open Thread
Midlands coverage (all times CT):
12/29: 9:30am -- Session I, 7pm -- Session II (Quarterfinals, consolation rounds)
12/30: 12pm -- Session III (Semifinals, consolation rounds), 7:20pm -- Session IV (Finals, consolation rounds)
TV: Northwestern All-Access (Thursday Quarterfinals); BTN (9:30pm CT; tape-delayed coverage of Friday's Finals)

Liveblog: The Open Mat / Andy Hamilton at Hawk Central. I'll also be open threading the event on Thursday and Friday.
BRACKET Right here
And, yes, BTN's airing of the Finals will also be opposite the Insight Bowl. It appears that you can also access NW All-Access if you're a video.BTN.com subscriber, too.
NOTE: Given everything else we have going on -- the Insight Bowl tomorrow, Purdue b-ball wrap-up, the usual random insanity we're prone to delve into -- the Midlands Open Threads are going to be run as FanPosts so that they don't get lost in the shuffle. I'll bump them occasionally, but you should always be able to find them on the right-hand side of the page in the Fanposts section.

Is it a penalty to tackle them using the spikes coming out of their backs?
Is it like a horse collar? Gotta believe that makes it tougher for a RB to get through a hole.

Are they hoping to blind defenders
by wearing mirrors on their heads? It seems like something that bartender in the BWW commercials would do to send the game to OT.

Clark wins 9-5

Not totally Hawkeye loyal
Pulling for Colon. He’s a fellow Clear Laker. The 33-pounder from UNI. Made it to the quarters. Now in wrestlebacks.
Because Iowa is one statewide small town, I work with his mom.

This is seriously one of the busiest 3-4 day stretches of Iowa sports I can remember in a while.
MBB game with Purdue Wednesday night.
Midlands all day yesterday
Midlands this afternoon and tonight
Insight Bowl tonight
MBB game with Wisconsin tomorrow
Whew.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Kelly tied 2-2 after 1st
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"

MK up 6-3 with 1:30+ of RT
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
MK wins, I missed the final score
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
So im thinking Kelly has won that spot
but honestly i like what i saw from Grothus too. he will be a solid backup, may even start later in his hawkeye career

Moore up 5-1 in the 2nd
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Moore looks like a Maj Dec coming.
Yay bonus points.
157: N Moore MAJ DEC (14-4) Greishelmer
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
149: Kelly DEC (9-3) Irvin
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Evans is up.
Leading 2-1 with 1:14 RT after 1.
Evans up 6-3, lots of RT
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Yeah, although I wish Evans had been able to hold him down at the end of the period
Don’t want to be giving up escapes with 2 seconds left in the period
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
I don't really know what Lear's gameplan was there.
He was down 6-4 and at some point he was probably going to need to let Evans escape (which would make it 7-4) in order to try and get some takedowns.
I guess his idea was to try and turn him on the mat and get NF points.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Yeah, not entirely sure.
He must have thought that he could ride him for the 80 seconds are so necessary to erase RT, but I don’t know where he expected to pick up the other 2 points.

I don't think so.
Should be Fahler, Wagner, and Gambrall as well.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Fahler, Wagner, Gambrall, and Rasing are still to go in consos
Tough matches for Fahler and Wagner.
Gambrall needs a strong showing in the consos today.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Wagner up 2-0 early
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
3-2 after a Dallago reversal and Wagner escape
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Not being in Iowa for so long
I didn’t realize how much I missed wrestling… might even try to go to the Midlands next year…
Wagner gives up a late TD to make it 4-3 Dallago
The Iowa corner gets warned because Brands was hot about that call.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Terry Brands has decided to go watch Fahler's match instead.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Great scramble by Wagner!
TD + 3 back points.
184: Wagner DEC (9-5) Dallago
Nice job, Vinnie. Big scramble near the end of the match.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
184: Dickson DEC (4-1) Fahler

I think it’s still 0-0 in the 3rd
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
A ton of riding time from the 2nd, though.

Not anymore.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
GG was wavering back and forth between going on bottom or not before this period
Sounds like he should have gone with his first impression and not gone underneath
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
GG finally gets the escape
:45 to go, no RT advantage
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
197: Gambrall DEC (1-0) Rinaldi

That was, as they say, "bowling shoe ugly."
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"

Oregon won't be the only team in the Rose Bowl with different uniforms.
Although Wisco’s changes are just tweaks:

I wonder if we could add a rose to the tiger hawk's mouth if we made it back to the Rose Bowl.
That might look sharp.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Yeah. I think it'd be easy to do.
If they’d do as I keep telling them and go back to the flying Herky it’d be even easier. They could also have put an orange in the Hawk’s claws.

They're not going to ditch the tiger hawk for flying Herky.
Not on the helmets, anyway.
I imagine you would be able to buy some shirts that had the design you’re describing, though.

Some pushing and shoving btw Evans and his opponent
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Evans down 10-2
Evans needs a bit of a miracle.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
165: Abdurakhmonov MAJ DEC (11-3) Evans
ouch
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Evans has some work to do to catch up to the top guys at this weight.
I’m not too eager to see him wrestle Taylor anymore, either.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
I would lean towards him giving up bonus pts to Taylor at this point.
But I don’t think there’s anyone else at 165 that would do any better, either.
"I want to be a cowboy. I don't want to be a panda. Pandas are boring, stupid and boring. Bad panda!"
Not the same thing.
Taylor is just really, really good at 165. I think Evans will be fine against most guys at 165 and should be able to fight for All-America status at NCAAs.
The voids at 149 and 184 (or 197, depending on what Gambrall does) are bigger problems. Although Kelly seems like a decent option at 149. I’m less worried about him giving up bonus points to Molinaro than I am Evans giving up bonus points to Taylor, even though I think Evans is, in general, a better wrestler than Kelly.

if Iowa improves in the same way this year that they did last year after midlands, we will be an unstoppable team.

Iowa State tried to get cute and use a RB passback to the QB.
Rutgers swat the ball out of the sky and nearly intercepted it.
Rhoads wasn't satisfied with one trick play and faked a FG on 4th down after a 3rd down sack.
ISU gets the first down by inches and are looking to go up 10-0.
Another 3rd down sack kills the drive.
Fake was wasted. Will have to try for the FG on 4th & 9.

I owe Catnuts a sorta apology.
I was in FF today and there is a Something or Other Vedic Temple on Old Hwy 34 in town. Only thing is, I don’t believe it is affiliated w/ the university so it does not count against my original statement, hence the sorta. I highly doubt this Vedic Temple is much more than a temple in name alone.
So Catnuts, if you read this I still say you are wrong but I was sorta wrong myself and I admit when I’m wrong, even if it is a sorta.

I watched these finals in some "sports bar" (more like pick up bar) on UFC night
I contended with a bunch of Texans decked out in Tapout and Affliction gear. McD looked pretty good (can’t give up that early takedown).
I was happy with Ramos. That Carter kid was a pure counter guy and the refs kind of let him sit back and be defensive in the third period. Tony lost by being aggressive and you can’t fault that.
Montell just didn’t turn it on early enough; Maple is tough as hell, but Montel can and should beat him.
EL just got beat. Not much to say there. I think Ethan is better than what he showed, but Munster is good.
Telford wrestled well, I thought. Trice is a douche and I think the ref let him hang on Bobby a little too much once they stood up. Locked hands is a shit way to lose. That match was chippy as hell, but after Trice’s post match strut I am sure that Bobby will be waiting in the tall grass for that guy.
I watched Patacsil’s finals match and came away impressed with Kelly. They guy is nails on top. My brother said that Kelly was about to pick down in that match and Zaddick came running around the mat screaming at him not to.
Also, I wanted to say that I think that Barry Davis looks eerily like a Russian Chess Grandmaster.

Trice is a fucking punk.
I guess I won’t get to root against him this year at NCAAs (he’s redshirting, hence that phenomenally weird singlet), but I’ll be happy to do so next year.
Los Hermanos Brands have definitely matured in their old age, though. The old Brands boys would have clocked Trice after the shit he pulled post-match.
