2023 B1G Tourney Session 2 Thread

Didn't even see we doubled up on Bartlett! Sorry about that. All good, I got the rest.
Seriously everyone, can we stop. B1Gs are always closer that nationals because the talent is condensed. When we introduce the other conferences, the other schools are affected so much more than us. Every time. Remember we didn't win B1Gs last year? Won nationals by 36.5. We will win B1Gs and nationals won't be close.
157 pounds: Levi Haines vs. Kendall Coleman, Purdue
First period
No score. Couple shots, but nothing really cooking.
Second period
Haines down. He is out quickly for a 1-0 lead. Haines shoots and finishes off a fighting Coleman for a 3-0 lead with 1:22 left. Coleman almost has a reversal but it's just an escape. 3-1 Haines. Period ends with that score.
Third period
Coleman down. He's out pretty quick to 3-2. Haines in on a single and is hiking his leg up trying to drive through. But they end up both on both feet and standing neutral. It stays that way with 30 seconds left now 15. And it's over.
Haines d. Coleman, 3-2.

wow, both of the 157 semis were great matches. Two close matches, score wise and competition wise. And each had some great sequences of wrestling. Haines was really smart. Hard to believe he didn't get the TD in the 3rd period. And also hard to believe that he avoided giving up a TD in the ?? (2nd or 3rd period, when Coleman nearly put him on his back) but Haines got his hips out before Coleman could get the TD.
the refereeing is allowed to be highly biased (ie anti -PSU).
The B1G hates PSU. Once you realize this, it all makes sense.
Iowa now has a 14.5 point lead over Penn State as the Lions get ready to roll at 174 with Carter Starocci.
174 pounds: Cater Starocci vs. Bailee O'Reilly, Minnesota
First period
Starocci gets the first takedown. O'Reilly the first escape. It's 2-1 with about a minute to go in the first period. Starocci catches O'Reilly on a single and thought he was going to be able to turn him but it's just a takedown and 4-1 lead after one.
Second period
O'Reilly down to start the second. Starocci rides a bit O'Reilly gets out, CS has nearly two minutes in RT though.
Third down
CS down to start the third. He's out in a hurry. It's 5-2. Another takedown for CS. It's 7-2.
CS d. Reilly, 8-2

So we're gonna be winning after this session with a (my prediction) 6-3 edge in finalists over Iowa. And people are worried and complaining about refs.
No. Each win takes into account championship placement points. It's about 4 or so right now. Brooks winning by major will pass Iowa in the standings after Starocci's win.
Edit: We face Iowa in last two weights. Split them (and no bonus points) and we'll be ahead going to the finals with more finalists.

Anyone know up to date team score? PSWC site bogged down for the 100th time today. They really need some website help!
huh? I just reloaded it in my browser, and while it was a tad slow, it had the score after AB's match.
I think Bartlett got shorted 2 pts early in his match which might or might not have affected his approach and the final outcome.
I might also be wrong
I think I remember what you're talking about. It was a bang bang call. Cael could've challenged, but by no means do I think the refs have it out for Penn State. Not in wrestling anyway.I think Bartlett got shorted 2 pts early in his match which might or might not have affected his approach and the final outcome.
