Doesn’t have to ..Thorn forfeited ...that should help. His big dance hopes should he win in final of this bracket
Big 10 Wrestling Tournament Thread, 10am/SUNDAY Noon , BTN + :
- Thread starter Abro1975
- Start date
MVB Not in yet as ABRO pointed out taking one place lower then the allocations is a criteria used for at large. 141 has 8 qualifiers he took 9th.
Yes those are for allocations to the conference. What I meant is an at large bid is he now able to be considered to get one? Pretty much I'm completely confused on why they are wrestling for places past the allocation amounts.
I believe he wrestles Cole Weaver for 9th. Weaver just beat McKenna from Northwestern
OK BTN2go had him listed as taking 9th that's where I got it from. Got it now these are the semi finals for 9th/10th.

I do believe. Don’t hold me to this. One of the criteria is did you beat a wrestler this year who qualified last year.
Yea hashed that one out already. They show on BTN2Go/ Van Brill 9th. That was code for he's wrestling for 9th not that he took 9th.
My computer didn't update showing all the responses otherwise I wouldn't have posted as the 278th person to tell you he had 1 more match. Ha, sorry.
They may be about peaked. I don't see a lot of wins left without some upsets. Did about as good as could be expected. Not their worst team but far from their best this year.
We complain about not performing to seed,
Iowa had Lee, Kemmerer and Marinelli get upset and dont make it to the finals.
Who would have guessed that?

Wow !! Richie Savage Lewis reverses Marinelli at the buzzer, and then teases Bland Brands as he walks off, !!
First time we beat higher seed. Richie Lewis -yes -
An unusual kid. Little Perrotti like. Hope he holds it together through nationals.

Lewis and RU penalized a team point for Lewis razzing the Iowa coaches as he walked off. lol
RU still in 11th place , no biggie.
BTN announcers said the crowd loves Lewis.

Yea that cost us a team point. Have no idea what Brands said during the match to provoke that. But knowing Brand's history it was probably something douchey. They have to be saying something during these matches Massa did the same thing after his win. But at this point like you said team points are really inconsequential being in 11th place.

But I love that part - Lewis razzing Brand! It was worth every point! As good as Ito pointing at the camera after his winning field goal against Louisville in 2006!
He will... I kept saying he can beat any wrestler besides maybe imar.. but rewatching his match vs imar... he took him down twice and now I think he CAN beat imar too.. basically RL SAVAGE is in the mix for a national title imo
In the hole:
Mat 1
149
7th Place Match
Eleazar Deluca, RS Sr 12-11 (Rutgers) vs Steve Bleise, RS Jr 17-7 (Minnesota)
Mat 3
157
7th Place Match
Jake Short, RS Sr 15-11 (Minnesota) vs John Van Brill, RS Jr 20-11 (Rutgers)
later , Lewis will face Wick, Iowa for 3rd
Lewis' last-second thriller over Iowa's No. 2/2/3 (Intermat/Flo/TOM) Alex Marinelli marked the highest ranked individual victory for a Scarlet Knight this season.
