    If I could get that on one of the betting sites, I'd lay a grand on the over.

    When the 133-pound final nears its 22nd minute in real time, one starts getting the idea that college wrestling's official-replay system has more kinks than the NFL's.

    That's why I watch on delay, so I can skip through the delays.

    I like NCAA wrestling's challenge system, but they need to speed up the reviews. It wasn't exactly short in the 125 lb final, either.

    No, this is the worse video review/coaches challenge in sports.
    22 minute match at 133.

    The penn state coach throwing a hail mary at the end of the 141 match that takes all the energy out of the moment.

    This blows.

    My lasting memory so far of this tournament is a ref on the 1985 phone with a stoppage of time.

    ASU, Cornell and Va Tech among the first five winners.
    I like variety.

    This last one is no lock for Brooks. Trent Hidlay is s warrior, and he's been around forever. Grew up a half-hour from State College.
