Love the QF matches. Those are the kind of matches this program wants.

Hope Sam is OK.

This is the round where the points start to pile up quickly. Tough road for a lot of our guys. Let's roll!

Here's a little change of pace - I wrote about Coleman and Schuyler. Got to do 1:1 with them before NCAAs and just reflected on their careers at ISU - https://cyclonefanatic.com/2023/03/the-seniors-leading-iowa-states-ncaa-championship-charge/

Guys on the front side need 1 win tomorrow to AA (either in QF or blood round).

Guys on the back side need to win 3 in a row tomorrow to AA -- 2 in the morning session, then the blood round in the evening session.

Just a load on the backside. Oof.

I know session 2 wasn't what we'd hope for, but when was the last time we had all of our wrestlers still alive for day 2?

2019.

Degen and Colbray were in the quarters.
Mackall, Gomez, Parker, Straw, Coleman, Miklus, and Gremmel were in consos on Friday morning.

Hopefully we finish quite a bit higher than we did then.

I will wait to judge till after today, but this looks to be another disappointing showing at the tourney.

Should have not posted after thinking this. Impossible to judge anything yet. Sure we'd rather than more guys in the quarters, but there is a lot of wrestling yet to come.

 

[JohnPrineforCy]

Today is a new day, and everything is still left on the table for this team. We had no quarterfinalists last year, and still ended with 3 AAs. Also, I really like our chances with this years team compared to the 2019 team that had all 8 wrestlers wrestling on day 2. Have a Day Boys!!! and makes some Noise. Go Cyclones!!!

[TheJackWePack5]

We haven’t really had an upset win yet.

Be a great day to change that, our guys have some real tough matches and a few are big underdogs. Might as well win some!

 

[JM4CY]

Amen.

And the nominations for worst post of the year are now open. JFC

 

[HitItHard58]

Amen.

Joe on the varsity network mentioned those a lot. Like A LOT. Drinking game based around him talking about those and every name mispronunciation would be deadly! I kid I kid. Listening on varsity can be rough but I definitely appreciate having the option.

Really, no QF last year? Sounds like a significant improvement to me. We’ll know more by the end of the day, but I’m expecting a good day.

 

[CycloneFan97]

Yup, Coleman got pinned by Braunegal in the second round, and I'm not even going to talk about Carr's second round match, still pissed about that
