I think you have a GREAT chance next year! Maybe even more of a shot than PSU. Believe it! Don't let anyone tell you guys any differently.
I do this so they get their hopes up. I enjoy their meltdowns more when they thought they had a chance.

Jammen entered the portal and will switch back to the Goofers.
It might be time for me to enter the portal.
It’s like your personal national past time.
Glazier was definitely mentored by Warner. He hit the mat after giving up an easy TD to lose.
He had a great year but I think the lack of competition during the season didn’t prepare him for the grind of the tournament.
Really impressed with how Nagao and Kasak have bounced back from their rough starts.
If I'm the Goofs, I'd pay Jammenz NIL money to stay with Nebby.
Especially Nagao after that horrid first match. Not sure what that was. He has impressed me with his backbone since.
Imagine being Mark Grey and having to tell the team that his own wife doesn't think they'll ever do it.
He’s too busy on TheMat defending the Cornell crack medical squad re: Shapiro
I don't buy that. Hell, our guys struggled to get enough matches for RPI. Glazier took a dive in the last month. Injury? Overtraining? Lights were too bright?
I think he meant Glazier's schedule was weak, albeit thru no fault of his own.
In the regular season Glazier faced Brooks, Surber, Allred, Joles 2x, and Wehmeyer. And of course Mr. Fast Splits. The only other guy he faced with a winning record was Urbas' backup at Penn. He got a lot of guys with ugly W-L records, some of them backups.
I agree but Bouzakis is a real tuff match for nagao not looking good.
Umm ... Nagao already beat Bouzakis today.
Doesn't Iowa wrestle the same rotation in B1Gs as we do? Then you add the Xmas tourneys. A match with Ferrari. I just don't think the quality of his schedule is why he went 1-2. Aaron had 6 wins against top 16. Glazier had 4. He was listless for the most part at NCAAs and I watched all three matches. He is not the same guy who wrestled in January.
Nagao will be ok if he keeps scoring low, rides him, and keeps action to a minimum.
something like 3-0 is how I see it.
Ummm…it’s clinched now unless all 10 guys forfeit.
Can somebody do the math for me since I am not really sure how, what is the max points that PSU can score now.
I guess what I am asking is, if we don't get 10 AA's (not looking so good), and say only five Champs with six finalists how many points is that?

You can always check the max points for any team on the PSWC website, but honestly, those max points are NEVER going to happen. That's only if PSU were to win every match by fall. It will determine when PSU clinches mathematically (which will be tonight), but as Madden pointed out, barring something REALLY BIBLICAL, PSU has already clinched.
Oh shit that's awesome at work didn't realize they wrestled 1st session. Thanks!!!

Check that, if they put five through they'll need Iowa 3.5 points between now and the end of the tournament.
I'm not going to tell you that Glazier's schedule was the only reason for his dropoff this weekend. It's probably either some injury and/or the usual Iowa all-out-intensity catching up to him.
And his schedule stunk on ice. He got a lot of backups and jabronis.
Comparing that to Aaron isn't useful. Aaron faces a tougher schedule in practice every week than Glazier faced all year. Also Aaron could be 0-0 in the regular season and still win the national title.
Only if other teams do not have a great night in consis. Consis on Friday night are real drivers of team scores. A lot of point are given or lost in rounds 4 & 5 of consis. Remember Minny in 2001 won nationals on the backside.
You might be right but we need help to close out tonight. If we send 5 into the final, that would give us around 125 not counting the guys in consis. There are still several teams that could "potentially" get to 150. Unlikely but a 1 in 14,000,605 possibility.
Oh I agree, I just thought it was simplistic to think that Glazier's problem was schedule. I agree, it's a combo of things including the usual Iowa March dive. I like Glazier. I wish he could have done better. The way he pounded the mat over and over after losing, it seemed his frustration was very high for some reason.
I watch on ESPN+. Just pause one mat until the other mat finishes. You can also hit the back button if you miss something on a mat. All that for 10.00....tee hee
It's a path. A path where almost everything must go perfectly. In other words, not very realistic.
I do.......every time I can't fall asleep. Saves $$$ on meds
