    We hit Gates BBQ. Very good as well. Can you get bad BBQ in Kansas City?

    Pricey. $2237 and $2409 per seat for the two suites I'm familiar with.

    Mitchell Mesenbrink's Pace

    Just want the kid relaxed (no problem) and having fun (no problem). The rest, win or lose will take care of itself. The coaches may spend a minute or two looking at 165 film, but only for the semi's and finals I suspect. Bout 1 vs #31 Maxx Mayfield (NW): Mayfield is 3-9 in his last 12, best win...

    NCAA Brackets and discussion

    This was added for 2024 so "subjectivity" could be used, but only when needed; SUBJECTIVE CRITERIA The committee may also consider the following subjective measures to supplement established selection and seeding criteria: ● Bad Losses ● Outside the top 30 CR and/or 30 RPI ● Conference Champion...

    NCAA Brackets and discussion

    Last season, championship brackets only, there were 66 upsets by seed in the ten weight classes. That's 20% of all bouts. Lot's of very good and great wrestlers at the tournament, generally saw only one head scratcher. The only seeding of the dozen or so I looked at by criteria that doesn't...

    Final Coaches Rank and RPI

    My post above states the same thing (2 out of 3). May have been you I had the forum convo with last year?

    Final Coaches Rank and RPI

    Not sure tbh. I was told that it was two of the three criteria met for tiering of opponents, which may or may not be true. It does align with the Gold/Silver Standard thinking, but who knows. And I'm not talking about the COVID year where RPI was removed from the tiering.

    I'll happily be one of those "losers". First adult beverage is on me, it would be great to meet you after all these years.

    PSU hosting '26 B1Gs

    With you on your intentions. Retired four years ago, but Maryland wrapped up my bucket list of attending B1G's at every Big Ten university, so it is now 14-for-14. To those that have not been, as you can imagine, the Big Ten Wrestling Championships is nearly as good a tournament as the NCAA's...

    Love the kid, as I love all the wrestlers, each unique and great in their own way. Since this is a Mesenbrink thread; -- His attack rate and success rate already mentioned -- Respectful to his opponent, even patting an opponent on the butt mid-bout for a great attack or whatever -- Dancing...

    If Cael was a dick to you, you probably deserved it.

    Too much time between B1G's and NCAA's.

    Fabulous time at B1G’s. This forum was well represented! Shout out to hlstone and PSUPaul specifically for the tailgate, though you could have ordered better weather 😀. Creameryfreak, thanks for the seat so my brother could join us. And to the 15+ other posters here that I ran into and spent...

    Everyone noted in this thread brings something positive to their trade, yet GENERALLY (meaning not all) the comments here have a negative bent. I couldn’t do what they do. Not busting on the posters here, it’s a reflection of our society to focus on the negative.

    Going to Big Tens

    Welcome aboard to the posting side of this forum. Seems you started "lurking" the year college wrestling started. Seriously, have a great time at the tournament. It's as good as the NCAA Championships in many respects.

    Going to Big Tens

    No, there's a bunch of lots. It's first come-first serve, and they'll be directing cars to the lots. Coming back late from a meal might just mean you are further away. Oh, and we're talking Big Tens here. I called it the T-Mobile Center above (now changed)...it's the XFinity Center.

    For those traveling to XFinity and parking in their lots around the arena, you may be interested in this... The website, when you buy parking for $20, it says per day. When you receive the pass, it says it is good for one entry per day. Anyone that plans to drive for a meal between sessions on...
