There’s no denying that this is likely a lopsided loss. Which match are you most interested to see?
-Will McCrone be able to be competitive with the super frosh?
-Can Bousakis bounce back from a disappointing loss to topple Davis. I think he can.
-Does Jesse continue to widen the gap?
-Does Kasak even wrestle against Dylan?
-Match of the night, Carson vs Haines?
-Is Feldman any closer?

I hate the idea of Jesse wrestling Bartlett again. Bartlett has not looked sharp this season but he has nothing to lose in this one. If I were Bucks, I'd consider sitting Jesse. Of course, that might lead to a shut out.

Does scoring 3 (or hopefully more) points really matter?

From a fan perspective, I hope he doesn’t. Im driving down for this one.
While I'm not expecting a team victory, I do appreciate seeing greatness. Top to bottom PSU has no holes, in my opinion. Not everyone will win a title but they are all tough outs.

Curious if Davis wrestle since he has missed the last 3 duals.
Would imagine Kasak doesn’t go so will it be Facudo?

WHAT IF:
McCrone can get some turns or even a pin vs the trush frosh
Bouzakis takes it to the Penn St backup as Davis has been out the last few weeks
Mendez continues to shut down Bartlett
Sasso/Cannon beat the PSU backup
Kharchla who has been wrestling great, pulls the upset
Feldman gains ground on Kerk and finally gets the upset.
Thats 6-4 matches to 4. Highly unlikely it'll playout like this, but not impossible.

You hit on one of my pet peeves, wrestling the same guy over and over. I was so sick of watching Logan wrestling Ramos in the dual, the Big 10 Championship, the NCAA's year after year. I was glad when Logan went up to 141. I feel the same about Mendez & Bartlett, but thanks to this extra Covid year and the All Star match we get to see them go another 4 times potentially.

Mendez will wrestle and win. I guess anything is possible, but he’s shown that he’s the better guy at this point. I feel like the pack is closer to Bartlett than Bartlett is to Mendez at this point.
The dual is likely to go very similarly to the Iowa/Penn State dual last week. Ohio State wins at 133 (because Davis is still out) and then Mendez gets the win at 141. Those are your shots ant wins. Even if Kasak doesn’t go, it would be a battle of backups at 157 and Penn State’s backups are better.

141-#1 Jesse Mendez vs. #3 Beau Bartlett
149-#7 Dylan D'Emilio vs. #2 Shayne Van Ness
157-Brandon Cannon vs. #1 Tyler Kasak
165-Brock Herman vs. #1 Mitchell Mesenbrink
174-#5 Carson Kharchla vs. #2 Levi Haines
184-#18 Ryder Rogotzke vs. #1 Carter Starocci

Not looking good for the Bucs. with Davis & Kasak in the line up.

Looking forward to seeing where each weight stacks up against PSU. Does Carson have a shot against Haines? I like that match up for Carson better than his past battles against Hamati.

Carson is wrestling a lot like Kaleb Romero. He probably doesn't win but it's a close match.

Man thats the best Carson has looked since 2020 injury. A little hopeful. Obviously needs to figure out how to finish…. Also, the ref let's Haines sit on that leg turk for so long without trying to turn. Sheesh.

Matches were closer than I expected, sucks for Mendez, and Carson, but some of the results give me hope in the post season.

Yea, he got his leg stuck or we probably go into OT. Haines definitely can be beat. Cannon looked great, Sealey is no slouch. How D'Emilio hit that double and had Van Ness in the air and couldn't finish the TD is beyond me.
