2024 NCAA's - Day 2 - Match/discussion thread

Not saying you are wrong, but I thought you get a point for winning in the championship bracket. Then 4 for taking first. Then bonus. ?
The placement goes from second to first. That’s plus four: 12 to 16. There’s no advancement once you’re in the final. Yes - any bonus counts.

The point you’re referring to is an advancement point. It’s one to advance in the winners’ bracket and 0.5 in the consolation bracket. But there’s no further advancement in the final or consolation final.
 
148 points.

Six finalists. If they all win by decision, it’s +24 and PSU sets a new scoring record.

If five of the six finalists win, it’s +20. That’s 168. A win by either Kasak or Truax in the consolation semifinals is +3.5 and it’s a new scoring record.

If four of the six finalists win and both Kasak and Truax win their consolation semifinal, it’s +23 and Penn State sets a new scoring record.

None of the above includes bonus and I haven’t talked about 3rd place for either Kasak or Truax.

The scoring record is definitely in play.
