Good luck to the PSU wrestlers wrestling this week! 3 words: Offense, bonus, and don't quit wrestling!

So without further ado,

I buried this link in the "Pre wrestling Eve" thread, but thought it was pertinent enough to share here. A good 5 minute interview with Jeff Byers on his predictions for the tournament, his Ironhead awards, and his thoughts on the dual back at Iowa City.

I'm stuck in the office today. Will be streaming and hopefully everyone leaves me alone and that PSU takes care of business and there is no need for me to yell and kick my desk.

 

[pish69]

LET’S GO!!!!!!!!

 

[District four]

Keep having this strong feeling Beau is “flattening” someone this tourney. So much so I had to change my KYSW pick. Lmao

Excited as always but I'll be on the edge of my seat for a few reasons this weekend. We have a 19 month old and my wife has been doing the stay at home mom thing since she was born so they're home with me. Last year it was easy to manage watching the tournament and giving my wife breaks with our daughter since our daughter wasn't super mobile yet. This year is a different story with our daughter very much mobile and running around and my wife is also 38.5 weeks pregnant! Praying that baby #2 at least waits until Monday to make her appearance. Regardless, my attention will be split between 4 screens, giving my pregnant wife as many breaks as possible, and hoping baby #2 holds off a little longer

Impressive setup. We only utilize two TVs.

It’s time to get it on!

Good morning 😀. Should be a wonderful day. I'm thinking round two will have some meltdowns around here. I'm thinking 9 for 9 this round.

 

[Brian LB-U]

[El-Jefe]

The stuff nobody sees, that makes tournament performance even more impressive.

 

[dmm53]

According to Track, Hildebrandt is the second match on Mat #3.

He's got to get this one and get things off to a good start.

 

[NoVa Lion]

According to Track, Hildebrandt is the second match on Mat #3.

He's got to get this one and get things off to a good start.

Yes, and RBY first round match (and maybe Nick Lee) also will be delayed as they are wrestling pigtail winners so they have to get their (30 minutes?) of rest. They changed the rule on how long the rest has to be and I don;t remember the exact time without looking it up.

Not all heros wear capes!

Well done sir! Thats how you ensure many Nationals into the future.

 

[mcpat]

I am ready!

(but wish espn3 listed the mats in some numerical order on xfinity. It instead goes mat 4, then 7, then 5, then 2, then matcast, then 1, then 8 and finally mat 3. Not the easiest to find a match quickly!)
