Wrestling on ESPN-- NOW!

Topic ID: 2168 | 16 Posts

They are going to show quarterfinals starting at 11 AM.

March Madness and College Wrestling...what more could you ask for??

I don't think that there is anything else.

OK. I thought of something......how about a split screen of the two.

is it a different time zone because ive been looking and it isnt on there

I must've heard wrong.  They put wrestling on ESPN U and ESPN 360. I have neither.  They're just gonna talk about the b-ball games for six hours on ESPN instead of showing the best sport in the world. Damn! Sorry for the mixup.

it's back on now, espnu channel514 for digital insight.  valenti--penn vs. reiter minn

did anyone notice ben askren....the kid never gets in trouble he is a monster and he doesnt even look like it...his technique is as close to flawless as it gets!....and then that heavy from minnesota i think....he is a real beast and is fast for a bigger guy!

Did D Schlatter lose???

Ya Schlatter lost and so did Kyle. Good job Kyle a match away from being an all american as a freshmen is awesome, keep up the good work bud!

The only reason why ryan lang from northwestern wasn't beat today in the 141 semi's was because of 2 bad calls. Don Fisch had that takedown on him but the ref's never called it and the takedown to give lang the win was a bullcrap call, he never had full control of fisch. I still can't believe that kish got beat also in the semi's but i guess there can be all kinds of upsets in the ncaa tourny just like dustin schlatter getting beat in his semi's match.

These are the finals matchups with my predictions in the bold

125

No. 1 Sam Hazewinkel (Oklahoma) vs. No. 6 Paul Donahoe (Nebraska)

133

No. 2 Matt Valenti (Penn) vs. No. 4 Coleman Scott (Oklahoma State)

141

No. 1 Ryan Lang (Northwestern) vs. No. 2 Derek Moore (UC Davis)

149

No. 3 Josh Churella (Michigan) vs. No. 5 Gregor Gillespie (Edinboro)

157

No. 1 Trent Paulson (Iowa State) vs. No. 7 Craig Henning (Wisconsin)

165

No. 1 Johny Hendricks (Oklahoma State) vs. No. 2 Mark Perry (Iowa)

174

No. 1 Ben Askren (Missouri) vs. No. 2 Keith Gavin (Pittsburgh)

184

No. 1 Jake Herbert (Northwestern) vs. No. 6 Jake Varner (Iowa State)

197

No. 2 Josh Glenn (American) vs. No. 9 Kurt Backes (Iowa State)

Heavyweight

No. 1 Cole Konrad (Heavyweight) vs. No. 2 Aaron Anspach (Penn State)

Konrad is a beast I remember the double overtime match last year he won for his 1st championship and I'm gonna remember him pinning the Penn State guy fast in the finals.

Who saw mark Perry beat a 2-timer after losing to him SEVEN STRAIGHT TIMES. Amazing.  That is why I love this sport.  Askren got a scare in the finals, but it almost seemed purposeful, like he was taking it easy in the beginning to make the end more exciting.  The 133 pounder from Penn wasn't scored on offensively until the finals. He was the second 2-timer in Penn history.  157 was a great match, I hoped Wisc. would win but Iowa St. pulled it out.

How bout 1st yr. coach Cael Sanderson having his team in the top 2 with a chance to win it in the finals (Varner needed to beat Herbert).  And Mizzou finishing third, the best finish in school history. Great tourney, this sport is seeing some real rising stars.

Hoe bout Derek Moore with a tech in the finals? Some of the best leg riding I've seen in a long time
