random thoughts for NCAA Week!

[Just another PSU Fan]

#1 --- How many times will I check my phone's Apple Wallet to make sure the tickets are still there?

#2 --- Will I actually workout in the hotel if I pack gym clothes?

#3 --- Should I buy a 12 pack to keep in the room?

#4 --- Is it wise to sleep after the finals with a 5:30am return flight knowing I should be at the airport by 4:15am?

#5 --- Plenty of time to nap between session 5 & 6 so I can stay up after the finals!

#6 --- Which top 6 seed will lose on Thursday?

#1 83
#2 No
#5 If the question is any variation of “Should I take a nap?”, but doesn’t involve driving or operating heavy machinery, the answer is always a resounding “Yes!”

I can only answer for myself…

1) 26
2) No
3) 12 pack? No. 2 12 packs (IPA for prematch, Lite for later), yes.
4) I am driving. Expect I will be wired Sunday AM either way and will be in the car at 5am. Hopefully listening to the Ironhead Semis and Finals calls.
5) Session 5 always a crapshoot about its import. Nap or brew pub needs to be in the plans. I am choosing the latter.
6) No clue but there will be 2-3 I would bet.

Geez, one wrestling-related question !!

For a start, I'll add;

#7 -- Which lowest seeded wrestler(s) will All-American?

#8 -- Which #1 seed will be the first to lose?

#9 -- Where will our group eat between sessions? (I know, not wrestling-related)

#10 -- Where will our two 16-seeds finish?

#6 --- Which top 6 seed will lose on Thursday?

Some possibilities:

Suriano to Hildebrandt, of course
Cardinale to Heinselman
ADS to Philippi
Riviera to Red
Eierman to Clarke
Carr to Berge
Franek to O'Connor
Kharchla to Wentzel
O'Toole to Fish or Valencia (brutal draw for a 2 seed)
Plott to Mocco
Buchanan to Trumble
Wood to Traub

Obviously, I don't think all of these will happen, or even most of them, but if there are Thursday upsets in the top 6, I think these are the most likely matches where they'll come from.

If I have to pick one, I'd guess O'Connor over Franek. An 11 seed returning national champ is a really bad matchup for a 6.

Great questions:
#1. - any tips that you can share for transferring tickets out of Apple wallet?
#2 Hotel is for sleep. Bars are for workouts.
#3 Drink with friends in bars. NCAA’s are an expensive gig and there’s no use in trying to save a few bucks in room beer.
#4 That’s just plain uncivilized!
#5 see # 4
#6 Sasso
