[@Incongruous1989]

I love that you love Andonian! He's super exciting to watch and I'd love it if he won. But, I'm bewildered as to why you dismissed Levi Haines so easily. He took Peyton out at B1Gs and has Cael behind him. He's got to be the one to watch. Besides, as much as I love Andonian, he gives up those singles too easily and then relies on extended scrambles to get a takedown, which is why he tires by the 3rd. Andonian wins if he scores tons of points in the 1st and 2nd, forcing opponents to catch up in the 3rd. But I don't see him doing that to Peyton or Levi. I say Haines and Brooks will prove you wrong.

[@billybud9557]

Ya, I gotta agree with you. Although I would love to see Andonian-Haines early fireworks, I think O'Connor will win it all at 57

[@Incongruous1989]

Let me just point out that the Andonian-Haines match turned out exactly as I predicted here...except for the fall. That one hurt.

[@thesupervillain8750]

3 national champs at 165 is insane, I got Sugar Shane pulling off multiple shocks and coming out on top! He just comes alive at this tournament and he was also the 8th seed when he won it. I think the idea of taking out Carr AND O’Toole will fuel him.

[@arnolddonaldson7129]

I actually think Fix has a better chance winning at 141 than 133. I know he's not a tall guy, but he is very technical and strong. RBY is just to quick, smooth, and clever for him. I do think Spencer Lee has the ability to defeat RBY at 133. I'm not saying Lee would win, but it would be interesting.

[@ryg2304]

Lee is the only dude who might beat him

[@billswarmer2241]

When Lee and RBY are taking pictures for national championship, they should look over st each other and say, "Let's make money on this and give the fans what they want". I'm in!

Josiah, I have not seen any better coverage of college wrestling anywhere. This was wo a doubt your best video ever...I'm so stoked. Ty for your dedication to the sport and even better explanation. I have Brooks winning 84, now you have me really thinking. I also had Dean out before semis. Hope your right. Kerk over Parris,,,I Have Parris winning, ,.but you make a great argument. Enjoy the best sporting even of the year. Should be awesome

[@Kilty007]

125: Spencer Lee easily wins his 4th title in 6 years in a weak weight class and finishes his career as one of Iowa's top 5 all-time wrestlers with a 100-5 career record. 133: Roman Bravo Young finds a way to beat the excellent Dayton Fix for a 3rd straight title. I could see this going the other way. 141: Real Woods easily dominates his way to the title. 149: Yianni Diakomihalis, the nation's best college wrestler, easily wins his fourth title 157: Peyton Robb knocks off Levi Haines in the finals 165: Carr wins again; he looks amazing 174: Starocci is like an Abrams Tank. I don't love his style but he isn't getting beat. 184: Brooks is the 2nd best wrestler in the tournament after Yianni. Title #3 for the bible thumper over Hidlay. 197: Elam over Dean 285: Kerkvliet, wrestling with 1 ACL as he has his entire college career, finds a way to turn the 22-23 tide over Parris and takes a win and finishes with a 4-3 career college record against the beastly Wolverine.

[@tommyrq180]

Everything you predict is a yawner and the odds-on pick except Parris. And Parris is a heavyweight, which is boring, pushing, grunting wrestling. Heavy is a showdown between Parris, Penn St, Arizona St, and Air Force. Air Force was a high seed last year and blew up right away. The only likely outlier is Schultz. Things never go to chalk in wrestling. You are King Chalk. 🥱

[@Kilty007]

@@tommyrq180 Yawner? Odds on picks? Really?? Where are you getting your information? Fix could easily win 133 and I said as much. Alirez is the favorite to beat Woods at 141 (but I picked Woods) and O'Connor is undefeated and favored at 157 as the #1 seed (but I didn't pick him to land in the finals). Brooks I picked to win b/c I honestly do feel he's the 2nd best overall wrestler in college but I wouldn't be surprised if he lost to Hidlay. And I picked the favorite at HWT to lose. Yawner? That's four of ten weights. Let's see your picks my friend.

Sorry, So many wrestlers have that one nemesis that they just cannot beat. Fix just cannot beat RBY. Love both of them but I don't think it is going Fix's way. But I am with you with Alirez! I would love to see that.

If anyone can beat Brooks it will be Hidlay. But Brooks is definitely the favorite! Love your other picks too, Billy

Cyclone David Carr at 165 has a chip since his upset loss at last year's NCAA. I'm picking him!

[@williamdehaas9982]

Agree with most- Haines,RBY,CARTER, BROOKS,DEAN, and KERK all win nat titles-

[@kawikajones9436]

I would be happy to see Van Ness and Facundo both get AA.

[@imacarrot6570]

Out of the trio ( van ness, facundo, haines ) I think Van Ness has the most upside and we know PSU squeezes the most upside out of wrestlers. I think Haines is closer to a finished product as his offense is just non stop, but I think that will be his downfall this year. Haines is not really the number 2, but may win next year. Facundo is in a weight class with a lot of good young talent. If he can finesse the strength monsters here he will probably get at least one nat champ.

[@wyatthillius113]

Lee Rby Alirez Yanni Haines Carr Starocci Brooks Dean Parris

[@cherylfrymire1907]

Heavyweight I most looking forward to Wanna see a PSU win Over Parris

Really like your picks here. Disagree with a few but overall think you nailed it. 125: Glory 133: RBY 141: Woods 149: Yianni 157: O'Connor 165: Carr 174: Starocci 184: Brooks 197: Nino HWT: Parris

[@dangerpowers4582]

I really want Hamiti to win. I think if Carr and O'toole weren't in the 165 class, Hamiti would be the clear favorite.

[@xzjayz7925]

125: Lee 133: RBY 141: Woods 149: Yianni 157: O’Conner or Haines 165: O’Toole 174: Starocci 184: Brooks 197: Beard HWT: Parris Those are my picks. I could still see Carr coming out on top, however he doesn’t really come alive at NCAAs like the others in this weight class do.

[@not_harrymaguire]

@Danger Powers Hamiti is such a difficult match up compared to other elite 165 pounders. He's so long and shoots very low and very quickly. If he wrestles like he did at the B10's I really think he takes it.

[@raccoon6450]

How do you edit your comment and still get it wrong 😂

[@tommyrq180]

Spencer Lee losing will be like Gable vs Larry Owings. Like Gable, Lee will have one off match, deer in headlights, won’t be able to ride his opponent, and bam. The reincarnated Owings beats the unbeatable. It happens and it happens at Nats. Who? Who cares? The main thing is to watch the Iowa Black Tar fan base sits there in collective shock while Brands loses his mind and gets thrown out of the tourney. A guy can dream…

[@reecec8490]

So you hate Lee? Or just Iowa?

[@ibarr1212]

The thing with Lee is he can get behind 8-1 and still get the first period fall. He can absolutely tilt anyone at anytime. That’s why he won’t lose.

[@tommyrq180]

@@ibarr1212 Yes, his tilting is impressive. The only explanation I have for that is that he must have unbelievable grip strength. At his level, everyone has phenomenal grip but he seems to still massively overpower opponents grip-wise. Watch his matches and see how when he grips, it’s over. You can’t make a mistake on bottom with him, and everyone knows it. But I think when you get on the mat, his grip just overpowers people which is really quite amazing. I’m baiting all the Iowa fan zealots here, but genuinely love wrestling and Iowa’s program. Brands is a classic heel and so are many of his wrestlers so people love to hate them. That’s weirdly good for the sport when you have such as obvious “good guy” in Cael and such an over the top bad guy in Brands. BTW, I’m very good friends with Duane Goldman, who is sixth in career wins for the Hawkeyes. I don’t WANT Lee to lose, all I’m saying is that in collegiate sports, the more you have people calling you unbeatable, the more I think of Larry Owings. Or, if you really want to irritate Iowazealots bring up Brent Metcalf and Darrion Caldwell in 2009! Another classic, unforgettable meltdown. Regardless, I’m pumped for Nats. After Big Tens, it’s the second best tournament in the country! 🇺🇸😁

[@ibarr1212]

@@tommyrq180 No argument. Anything can happen. Anyone can lose but of all the wrestlers competing Spencer is the best bet to win. I agree, his grip strength must be off the charts. He traps your wrist and you are done.

[@tommyrq180]

I guess I get the last laugh on this thread. Spencer Lee just got pinned by Purdue’s Gomez in the semi finals of the NCAAs. He had already put Lee on his back once, and Lee ground his way back. Then Gomez pinned him. So Gomez = Larry Owings. It’s pretty much a thing for Iowa wrestlers. Sorry to see Lee get beat, but Gomez legit put him on his back twice and pinned him even though Lee got a four pointer due to his ridiculous ability to turn people. Wow. It’s why they actually wrestle the matches. Anything can happen and it always does.

[@blacklabsociety4876]

Alierez is gonna smoke the field & win 141- he's looked outstanding all year. Been mauling people. Woods ain't at that level.

[@jessefromal9093]

[@phattygoodness7347]

I disagree I think Alirez is having his best year, but Woods looks strong. I'm not even a fan of Woods and I rooted for Hardy to beat him, but he looks really good. I dont see Bartlett any higher 3rd or 4th.

[@thechessmartialist840]

Woods - Alirez final i feel is quite likely. Woods barely held him off last year, but he has looked great this year. I think woods wins again, but will be rooting for Alirez if woods beats Hardy.

[@eddys.razorxp6445]

Dean gets beat. You cant win every match with 1 takedown and ride out. Eventually you get someone with good enough takedowns to get one on you. Dean is just not good enough on his feet to beat all of them. Last year he snuck in there, not this year.

[@exeggcutebenedict]

I'm rooting for fix to win the ncaas

[@imacarrot6570]

Kerk is not beating Parris this year. Brooks has seemed lazy but may be peaking at nationals, can see him falling to Hidlay. The only one with a chance against Carter is Mekhi; I love Mikey, but when the takedown defense does not include a scramble he loses. Dean has too many obstacles to finish first. RBY & Fix are about even though you maybe right on RBY having the number. The only person beating Spencer Lee & keeping him from the Hodge is the ghost of Sebastian Rivera.

[@clamnog7839]

Did you watch Brooks at the Big Tens? Completely dominating!! Lazy??? Really?

[@rodneyzaumetzer3626]

Think he meant at some of duals. At all star event and bigtens Brooks is top 2 wrestler pound for pound. Going to pound everyone. Bonus if other players actually wrestle or back away whole time like bigtens final

[@davidgutierrez4606]

I think Haines is gonna pull it off he has all the momentum on his side heading into the tourney

[@diegopons4622]

Alirez is gonna maul people on his way to the final. The final vs Woods will be close. But Andrew is going to win it. P.S. I'm also predicting that Daton Fix is finally going to be a national champion. Fourth time will be the charm on Saturday.

[@jessem_i31]

I'm with you Diego, I think Alirez gets the upset. I hope Fix wins for his sake, it must be a huge weight on his shoulders.

[@ibarr1212]

While part of me wants to see Fix get off the snide, after watching Straight Out of Tucson, I have to pull for RBY. This will be the most anticipated match of the tournament. As far as the most anticipated weight class, I would have to go with 197 because it is so wide open. So many guys could conceivably win. For least anticipated weight class I will nominate 174. Starocci is just too dominant. One can make the same argument for 125 where Spencer Lee is even more dominant but his quest for #4 makes that weight class more compelling compared to Starocci who is “only” going for #3.

[@mpmv2926]

Well said, 149 is also in the same boat as 125 with Yianni going for 4. And for 197 Im rootin for my Cali man Truax

[@AlwaysAlpha88]

After last year's semi-finals I think Vito definitely has that same hunger! Vito could have definitely won that match if the referee would have called it different, and I kind of think Vito got cheated honestly. If you remember Vito thought he was getting back points not giving them up vs Glory who he almost tech falled a few weeks earlier. And Vito beat fix in the world team trials not all that long ago. Plus style-wise Vito has a better shot against RBY, I just don't think fix brings anything that's going to catch him and that's almost what you need to do.

I love daton fix but I've said this before I believe it's a absolute tragedy for the wrestlers, for the sport and for the fans that these guys don't wrestle more often, I could be wrong but it's absolutely mind blowing from a learning perspective that daton fix has only wrestled rby in the last 3 years only in the finals, that doesn't even make sense to me from a coaches perspective on how my wrestler is going to work on his flaws if he hasn't seen them against the best wrestler in the nation, there are so many 1 and 2 that haven't meet up this year, I love iowa but I believe it's biggest tournament was that military salute tournament were there wasn't even I believe a top ten team there, this kind of action is why wrestling is dying in my opinion, the big 10 yes I know is crazy but there are alot of guys outside of that conference that will never meet until the ncaa championship which I believe is a total travesty for the sport, we need to boycott these staged tournaments were we clearly know the winners

I guess I have the luxury watching this for the first time and able to comment on your predictions. I was there at the BOX center to witness this awesome, yet crazy Nationals. If I had not seen this AFTER the said natty's, and watched this before the tournament, I probably would have agreed with many of your predictions. It's amazing most of these matches were so different then what your thoughts were going in to the semi's and finals. I was impressed with Van Ness, Bartlett and definitely impressed with Levi Haines. Who would have thought Lee would not only get pinned, but basically Quit after that and refused to wrestle back for 3rd. Fix didn't make the finals, RBY was handled in the finals. Parris looked tough against Kerk in the finals. Starocci and Brooks played out as I thought it would. Haines beating Andonian was awesome. I wasn't surprised about Dean. He seemed to slide a little this year. I was surprised of Beard's finish, which I thought he'd finish top 5. Sasso wrestled Yanni tough until the very end. It was nice to see Glory win.

Does anyone else think Lee could get beaten? I know he's dominant but he hasn't looked as good as he has in the past going to a full match lately, idk if it's another injury or cardio or what. Also he's already had a few scares where he could've been stuck, obviously he came back and showed why he is who he is but still. I like him a lot and hope he wins but I don't think it's an easy write off again, I think he could potentially get upset. Is it just me?

[@denniskaramitros216]

He will stay in good position and do enough to win without taking the chances He might during the season. An example is how he wrestled in big ten finals. In control and not taking too many risks because he doesn't need to

[@botaeng2]

174 weight definitely the most boring, hands down.

[@chrisschemm9078]

You were literally wrong on every single weight except for 149.

[@bobbyreyes7474]

Least excited for 125 most excited for 165.

[@zacksilver4028]

I feel you choose guys to win over penn state guys just because you don’t want to be called penn state bias

[@searay26]

Well....I guess it went a bit sideways. 2 out of 10 right?

[@OneManParade]

I was looking forward to your Hodge trophy winner prediction. Lee and Yanni should be the winners if they win their weight class.

[@redspecture4498]

Lee lost

[@1970sRacing]

if only they would not let people wrestle past 4 years-----stupid

[@thesupervillain8750]

I would love to see Andonian win it and I do think he will make the finals, AOC is I believe 6-0 against him all time and has been amazing this year. He’ll be a two timer

[@tjc2016VT]

Agreed. Love Andonian but AOC has controlled him every match.

[@benjaminpreal6789]

Bro Vito has beat fix like 8 times why do ppl still pick fix

[@alexardon1933]

Is there a place to place any bets on this? Legally?

[@jfreak7589]

This did not age well Fanco😂

[@joelhenry4643]

Ditch the stash or buy a sombrero amigo.

[@jacobmathew666]

Anyone else see Josiah on food theory?

[@andressandoval9043]

Simple Answer: NO

[@AntiPattern328]

I think Fix ups the pace this year and gets it done. At 141, I see Hardy pulling the upset! He's wrestled Real 2 times within a hair and I think he has his number this time. 157, we see another Nebraska guy in the finals. 165, Hamiti is the guy who can beat anyone at any time! 174 Labriola makes the finals. Nobody beats Starocci 197 I think Allred got kind of hosed with his seating after winning Big 10's but he can make the finals, too...

[@FancoWrestling]

Awesome predictions!

[@matthofmann7517]

Picking Dean is a homer pick, but you get one of them

[@jessem_i31]

I think Kerkvliet is just a little bit of a homer pick as well, but only slightly because him and Parris are such a good matchup.

[@jessem_i31]

Also, I think Silas Allred will beat Max Dean if they face each other again. Allred had a very convincing win over Dean. At this point I don't think Dean can or will change his lazy style of wrestling and it will cost him a title.

[@carlwetzel273]

Only 2 for 10 Ice coldddd lol

[@schumpert327]

Vito takes him out…

[@justintorres4888]

Sound issue 12:35

[@adamfowler350]

Time for an update

[@chopstyx141]

Vito v RBY finals

[@mbgrocott7115]

Bernie takes 197.

[@johnsonoutdoors0]

Don’t doubt on Fix because he’s definitely out there trying to prove something. I got Fix beating rby 3-2

[@billnolte8644]

Maybe Fix will finally learn to pressure for 7 minutes instead of playing RBY's game and making it a 60 second match. If he does, Fix wins. If not, RBY does.
