Rooting for Gwiz is hard but I am going to do it.
Looks like the 11th seed Miles Martin (Ohio St) beat the top seed Bo Nickal (PSU), so OSU has caught us. We're still on the podium, though, which is really awesome.
AirplaneBottleofBourbon described it really well. The scoring is mainly based on control rather than body position. Body position comes in to play when looking at back points or a pin.
SOB!
Could have been even better but NC State had a rough tournament relative to expectations. Coming in I thought they had a stronger tournament team than we did even though we had the better dual meet team.
Thanks. A bruised rib would fit what I saw.
And this is exactly why they originally planned to redshirt Hamilton. With his height, he is an ok shot blocker and rebounder, but obviously needed/needs work on his offensive game and in his positioning on the defensive end.
He looks like the son of Ted Cruz and the Zodiac Killer.
This, Grayson Allen getting face-punched (hopefully) will make my weekend a lot better. Would've been nice if Butler could've closed the deal.
Wikipedia has a good summary on how points are scored, but a takedown doesn't have to be taking someone down. A better term would be back control. Getting behind the other guy is what gets you the takedown.
Bored with the basketball at this point...switching to wrestling. To make the podium as a team in NCAA championship is awesome!
Why are there points for not taking them to the ground? That last match between Illinois and PSU wrestler seemed more slap happy and attempts than actually doing anything.
Ask away. We'll answer.
Got mine today too. Confirmed for making my keys louder.
Woohoo for Epperly! Thats quite an string of wins in back to back matches!

I really don't get most of what these wrestlers are doing or where their points are coming from.
Anyone else think he looks like an overgrown preschooler?
Andre Washington (C/7'-0"/240 lbs) from Wake Forest would be awesome if Buzz decides to go that route.
Always and forever, but tonight we have an actual rooting interest in it. If one of their two finalists wins without bonus points, they tie us for third. If both win, or one wins with bonus points we fall to fourth. And if both their finalists lose, we claim third place all by ourselves.
Yes
So we want the Bucks to lose right?
Penn State's ZPain Retherford has beaten Iowa's Brandon Sorenson. Convincingly. VT is now locked in to 3rd or 4th place, depending on how the two Buckeyes yet to wrestle perform.
Came to ask who I should pull for. Thank you!
Hate. Hate. Hate.
I know that hurts us, but that PSU guy has the worst hair in America. I love seeing these guys run into the stands and hug their parents.
