Don’t think Troy needed to take that chance there. Now he is in a spot where he is going to have to take chances.

Yeah, but I'd always rather have a guy be too aggressive. And you know Troy's going to give it 110%.
I really thought both wrestlers were out just prior to Lilley’s take down. Guess not as there was no challenge
133 - Forrest with an 14-3 MD and NCAA FINALIST!!!
Seidel definitely a tough dude, but Jax is just amazing!
Jax is just ridiculous. To do that to Seidel is a hell if an effort.
Davino and Jax for the natty tomorrow. That one might be worth the price of admission.
They're reviewing something in the Davino Blaze match. No call. Davino vs Forrest tomorrow night.
@Corby2 Told you it won't be that close this time for Jax against Seidel.
One is a takedown machine the other has not given one up all year
149 - Swiderski with a 4-1 decision and ALL-AMERICAN!!!
141 - Vega with a 5-3 decision and NCAA FINALIST!!!
Wow, that was a little close for Sergio at the end. Win and move on the finals!
Several folks have mentioned that going in order is madness because it doesn't allow for the drama to build to a full crescendo. But hear me out: go in order. Start at 141. End with 133. Bookend this thing with two of the most highly anticipated matchups of the tournament.
Got a little dicey but he gutted it out. Hardy is strong. Hardy is very strong.
I asked ChatGPT that last night and it said he hadnt wrestled Davino or Blaze
They’ve wrestled a couple times in Freestyle. They split but Jax won the most recent one.
Actually rooting for Van Ness to win so Nebraska doesn’t get points.
I thought that the commentators had said something like that. I knew it wasnt in high school competition and obviously not in college.
141 final...
Two undefeated guys with one that hasn't been taken down all year. Mendez will have to do something that has been impossible all year. I like Vega to pull it out.

They wrestled in the US Open freestyle this year with Jax winning like 4-0 or something similar.
149 semifinalists has the 10, 11, and 20 seeds along with the No. 1 seed.
