Someone has a Man crush.

Penn State could still win this & I say this b/c I have been hearing all sorts of melt-down cries. But pls wake up... ha.

Tomorrow
PSU has 15 matches
MN, IL & tOSU have 13
& IA 10

Currently
MN 117
IA 112.5
PSU 111

Here is some realism & some optimism....

MN 0-117
IA 4-116.5
PSU 4.5-115.5

133-Steiber wins over Ramos, Martelotti gets 7th (Martelotti vs #7 Kiley rematch of match Martelotti lost in last second)

PSU 1-118.5

149 Tank wins-KEY (vs #2 Ness, Kelly eliminate)
MN 0-122.5
IA 0-116.5
PSU 4-122.5

157 Welch beats DSJ, Dylan gets 3rd THIS IS KEY (vs #5 Demas & then #3 Green-#4 Jones winner, both Dylan beat by 1-2 points each)
MN-122.5
IA-116.5
PSU-4.5-127

165 DT wins, Yohn gets 5th (Big match #7 Yohn vs #5 Polz & then maybe #3 Kokesh if Yohn wins)
MN 1-123.5
IA 116.5
PSU-4-131

174-Ed wins, Lofthouse gets 3rd, Here the Tournament is almost out of reach (vs #2 Storley who lost to Mat brown at the Scuffle)
MN 123.5
IA 4.5-121
PSU-4-135

184- Steinhaus wins, Quentin gets 3rd & Gambrall takes 4th...also KEY for Q-here it is out of reach (vs #8 Hinton who Q beat fairly handily before)
MN-4-127.5
IA-3.5-124.5
PSU-4.5-139.5-

197-Yohn gets 3rd, Morgan gets 5th (vs Yohn & then maybe #8 Kissel if he loses to Yohn)
MN-4.5-132
IA 124.5
PSU-1.5-141

285-Nelson wins, Cam gets 3rd (vs #7 Chalfant & #5 McMullan)
MN 4-136
IA 124.5
PSU-4.5-145.5

THE KEY is Nico & Dylan winning 3rd place (& Frank doing his thing). Nico & Dylan have the toughest route BUT even without that we have enough points to win. If they do, we just about have it locked up provided that McD wins, Steiber wins & Russell wins ALL very likely.

This also takes into account that one of the Dardanes finishes 3rd & the other one 5th.

Welch beats DSJ thats a toss up. In order for Iowa to win the team title, 5 of their 6 finalists are going to have to win & Gambrall is going to have to finish 3rd. Iowa could go 1 for 6 tomorrow in the finals. MN could go 2 for 5 in the finals.

All of this math from an Art major...

Your making my head spin, I'm just going to enjoy some good wrestling tomorrow hopefully. MN wrestled really well this second session. I think we only lost matches at 141 Dardanes in overtime against #1 Russell and Zilverburg getting knocked out of tourney by Morse? Really proud of their effort this evening. Its going to be a barn burner which I think we ALL knew way back in November. Can't wait to see this thing played out to its conclusion.

Your math is making MY head spin. I think its possible things could go your way tomorrow. It will take a true team effort, if we lose by less than 5 I will blame the pigtail gifts you got in the opening round.
