If Blaze emerged at 149, that would resolve a lot of our upcoming lightweight logjams.
2026 NCAA Championship Session V Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
the team will be better next yr just 174 to figure and Cael will!
Could be wrong, but thought Tan Tom was B1G coach of the year. But, yeah.That can’t be right. Tan Tom is national coach of the year. Didn’t they already lock up the team title?
How many times did he go to one knee between the desk and the door?
If all six our our finalists win by fall, we hit 200.
(Anything less and we riot.)

They can laugh at me all they want. They're still the feeder state for anOSU and how's that working for them?
A road going from Indiana to Champaign to Philly to Stilly to Laramie is a long road indeed.
Is there criteria in team scores? If both Ohio State finalists win with no bonus, they tie Iowa for 4th.
This was such a dumb decision by Taylor?
He got away from bottom with only 12 seconds left. So he had 12 seconds to score a TD vs 30 if he chose neutral? But he did get a meaningless point while losing 18 seconds.
The only possible justification (and it is not that great of a justification) is that Robinson had a stall call and maybe they thought they could get an escape point and a stall call to tie it as they had riding time..
This. Davino is 2nd year in college room. Seidel advantage is pure strength. Elite Freestyle doesn’t require elite mat wrestling. Give him a redshirt year with PSU coaches and see the adjustments.
Don’t know if it came through the broadcast, but they announced all winners AND all seniors after each medal match.
By far the biggest ovation was for Hardy and it was quite an ovation. He responded to it. Quite touching.

Hipster Jax. Wearing construction clothing despite not knowing how yo use a screwdriver. And smelling of a lack of hygiene and weed.
I always thought Michigan high school wrestlers can’t finish shots but then we got Barr.
Yes, Hips Jax are a hydraulic lift device that helps you get out of a chair. They install in 5 minutes, and are rated up to 500 pounds. I have a set on all my chairs.
not sure we see davis again. I think if blaze redshirts, we roll with ono and desmond
Hopefully Luke 125 again, Ono 133 and Blaze 141lbs next season
Blaze isn’t strong enough for 141
Henckel...he's a stud
that's a shame. really need those hammys to kneel
Without an awful referee(s) there would be another PSU kid in line to win another individual title.
Here’s my quibble - I think savino and Seidel are actually better than Blaze. Duke is better than Robideau. That’s the frustrating part. I think with some game planning against robideau - Duke handles him next time. I am not sure Blaze beats Savino or Seidel….
Or if they thought he was more likely to get a reversal than a takedown in 30 sec.
But then you have to actually try to get a reversal. And there's still the risk of losing due to RT differential.
Plug Nate in at 141 as Davis has a RS
You are correct sir, but I was sarcastically prognosticating the award following the conclusion of NCAAs.
We're so spoiled. A true freshman places 4th in arguably the toughest weight class and we're disappointed. Crazy stuff. Seidel is probably the 2nd best 133 behind Forrest. Ono/Forrest could've been epic. I don't see Forrest holding 133, but crazier things have happened.
Regarding Seidel... his reputation as a top hammer is well earned. Im surprised Blaze went on bottom.
Looks like Marcus is the new Scooter,have at it guys!
Didn't get to see either third place matches due to daughters birthday party but I suppose I'll have to get it out and watch blaze lose to Seidel.
He also took a Olympic Redshirt, and did not compete in any Freestyle events to qualify for the team.
It was just a dodge to get another year of eligibility.
When your older brother is cutting to 165, genetics might say 133 is a short stay. It isn't at all unreasonable to think Marcus could RS a year, ONO go 133, double D's fight it out at 141 ( Desmond and Davis ) and Marcus emerges at 149 to replace SVN.
This should be a crazy offseason.
My only takeaway, besides being thrilled with our program is I wish we would shake opposing coaches hands. Mitch shakes everyone's hand, even those keeping score.........maybe too much.

While what happened with the officiating sucked, it never should have come to that. In both losses this year, Duke was really inexplicably tentative with his offense. Whenever he gets at it, he wins. It’s on him that he wasn’t aggressive enough on his feet and was even in that position.
And a National championship was ripe for his taking last season.
