The very thing that I loathe about this allocation system i that it invites people to forfeit their ways through the tournament.

HOWEVER, the Big 12 was MORE than happy to put on a show for all of us, with all 10 matches happnin, and only legitimate forfeits on the back side. Kudos to your obligation, guys!

Let just say it Iowa MFF out of competition. That's why the Bull will probably be their only champ in two weeks.

jmantom (1) about 4 and a half years ago

12 of 40 MFF in the placing matches. I know this is a qualifier for a bigger tournament, but as a paying fan sitting in the stands, that just seems unacceptable. That may have been the last Big 10 Tournament I go to unless something is done about that. Then again, maybe the conference doesn't think it's a problem.

Comparing the Big 10 tournament to the ACC or PAC 12 is just plain silly. Even the wrestlers who forfeited wrestled more matches.
And some wrestlers, like Kemerer and Rivera were legitimately hurting, so once they qualified it made sense to preserve them for the NCAA's.
But like most fans, I was surprised and disappointed by Iowa. When it became clear they were not going to win, they chose to sit their guys out???
I watched the matches and I didn't see anything wrong with Eierman or Cassioppi. And what a shame for the people who paid to see Gable win a title.
Maybe we'll get an explanation from coach Brands.

Brand is a bully who thinks his tactics are always right. If Spencer didn't go there they would be 4 or 5th every year in the Big 10. I understand he won the NCAA and Olympics but it shouldn't give him a pass as a coach. Cael has been destroying him the last 10 years.

dbestsport,

I, and I'm confident everyone, understands that some people were injured, particularly Chemlawn, but most were not and it's why our current system is a mockery.

However, in the Big 12, no such problems at all. All the boys put on a show!

dbestsport (1) about 4 and a half years ago

For the record, just looking at 2 wrestlers, Rayvon Foley and Mike Van Brill.
Both wrestled 5 matches in two days. They already qualified for nationals, so they forfeited wrestling for 5th.
No wrestler in the Big 12 wrestled 5 matches.

Nice to see that you missed the pernt.

So, ah, does that mean that these people should just forfeit out of the Big Dance, when they reach the magic number of matches to where one cannot continue?

Furthermore, how many more matches did the finalists who forfeited out rassle vis a vis the Big 12 finalists?

Hint...the exact same number...

"No one in the Big 12 rassled five matches."

Really? I got a nice crisp $100 bill that says otherwise, and that's just briefly scanning only the 125 and 133 brackets.
