McDonough vs. ROBLES ROBLES ROBLES ROBLES: NCAA Wrestling Finals Open Thread

 

Robleshamburglar_medium


So after three days it's down to this: one more match before the Iowa wrestling season closes up shop for another eight months.  Unlike the last three seasons, this one won't end in a national championship -- this year's team, though markedly improved from their state early in the season, was too inconsistent (and Penn State was too good) to bring a fourth straight championship back to Iowa City.  Our blue-and-white friends clinched the team title during the consolation rounds this morning, their first title since Dwight Eisenhower was charting the course of the nation and before Dick Whitman even knew what a Don Draper was.   Kudos to them.

All that's left to do is dole out individual honors and unlike last year, when Iowa had fine finalists (and crowned three champions), it's a one-man show this year.  Matt McDonough has plowed through the competition to stake his claim to a second-straight national championship at 125 lbs.  The only thing left between him and back-to-back titles?  Oh, just the most celebrated wrestler at this tournament, the focal point of ESPN's coverage, and the most impressive personal story at the event: Anthony Robles, the famous one-legged wrestler from Arizona State.  As I mentioned this morning, even moreso than normal for an Iowa wrestler, McDonough figures to be the villain of the story here.  He is, after all, the only thing standing in the way of Robles putting the finishing touches on his impressive story and ending his very good college career with the one thing it lacks (a national title).  

The action starts at 6:30pm CST on ESPN; 125 is the first weight of the night, so McD and Robles will be front and center at the start of the broadcast.  There are no Iowa guys after that, so you can feel free to switch back to the hoopyball after McD's match is over.  The usual rules of open threading apply: no porn, no links to illegal online streams, no slurs, no politics, no religion, and suchlike.  Go McD.

Agreed. Each season gets better. Didn't know that was possible.

Perhaps my best years are gone... but I wouldn't want them back. Not with the fire in me now. No, I wouldn't want them back.

Without trying to spoil anything.

I thought Don’s personal event from the end of season 3 would force this season to take a step back. I was never so glad to be wrong. Also Joan was written with a vengeance this season.

ESPN covers wrestling for non fans

It’s funny that Iowa is the most dominant team of the last 30 years, and McDonough pretty much represents all that is good about Iowa Wrestling, AND he’s the defending champion, yet he’s the “bad guy” here, and more than that, he’s kind of the afterthought.

Oh, ESPN.

by The Naked Bootleg on Mar 19, 2011 6:23 PM CDT reply actions  

Guys from Iowa who wrestle that style, like Metcalf

basically are the bad guys of the college wrestling world. Everyone else hates them. I think they’re alright with it though.

I think in this case, the fact that Robles is such a crazy and amazing story is the reason for the slanted coverage.

I mean, he’s not just kind of a freakshow (which he is, sadly) — he’s also really, really, really good.

Yeah, it’s breaking the rules, but he’s getting penalized for it. The refs might have been quicker with the stall calls, but would that have mattered. He turned MdDonough on his back twice and built a huge lead. There’s a lot of people that stall in that situation.

But really, how do you get a takedown on him, if he instantly drop to the match as soon as the whistle blows?

Go around him.

McDonough never got a take down because he never got or gave up an escape. He kept holding on to him and tried to turn him.

In the past 10 years, just four team owners have not paid a luxury tax and are not on pace to pay one this year: Donald Sterling, Jerry Reinsdorf, Chris Cohen (Golden State), Bob Johnson (Charlotte).

I watched it yesterday, and the guy he wrestled stood up and it just took him way to long to get a take down.

You’d have to change your level so much, that he has time to react. Also, McD ties up a ton, and I was wondering how he was going to wrestle. Personally, I think I liked the strategy. He just wasn’t able to stick with it.

Bubba wanted to redshirt the year Cael came in (and in a few previous years).

Cael wanted him to wrestle. So Bubba decided to tank all of his classes so he would be academically ineligible, thus forcing a redshirt year.

With that said, not many PSU fans I know truly hated Bubba, at least until yesterday.

Scoring is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.

Scoring, without my using it, is useless. Without scoring, I am useless. I must use my offense true. I must shoot straighter than my enemy who is trying to defeat me. I must take him down before he takes me down. I WILL!

My coach and myself know that what counts in this war is not the shots we take, the noise of our grunts, nor the teams wins we gains. We know that it is the scoring that count. We WILL score!

My wrestling skill is human, even as I, because it is my life. Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories. I will ever guard it against the ravages of weather and damage as I will ever guard my legs, my arms, my eyes and my heart against damage. I will keep my offense and defense clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will…

Before God, I swear this creed. My offense and myself are the defenders of my program. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of Coach’s honor.

Lets consider the rise of Butler for a moment.

At this point (and especially if they win a game or two next week) does anyone else think Butler can be considered one of the premiere places to go if you want to play basketball? They have been more consistently good in this tournament over the past few years than some of the traditional powerhouses…
