    In addition I think all the sessions are on ESPN3 (at least hopefully, as some of us don't get ESPNU). Hopefully it's not on that WatchESPN crap. I should probably figure this out....

    Ya I am going to have to as well I had to sell my tickets due to the surgery I couldn't afford it anymore frustrated I still have work off though

  • So I'm trying to figure it out now. Here are the session times:

    Session I 3/21 11AM
    Sessioin II 3/21 6:30PM

    Session II 3/22 10AM
    Session III 3/22 6:00 PM

    Session IV 3/23 10AM
    Session V 3/23 6:30PM

    Just from browsing the ESPN3 website....

    Session I will have mats 1-4 broadcast
    Session II will have mats 1-4 broadcast
    Session III will have mats 1-4 broadcast, as well as the action being on ESPNU, but they'll probably only have one mat going at a time
    Session IV will be on ESPNU as well as ESPN3, but only in certain areas. I've attached the map to this to see if you're in the area for ESPN3 (Iowa is not).
    Session V will be on ESPNU and ESPN3, no blackout/restrictions listed. Probably only get one mat here too.
    Session VI will be on ESPN, no ESPN3, only WatchESPN.

    So we don't get all the mats for sessions I-IV, which sucks, but at least half of them are on.

    Hopefully this helps!

  • Today was media day for Iowa. Here's Brands video and McD's video.

    Also attached is the Hawkeyesports.com article on nationals. Away we go.

    Edit: The links should work, even though it doesn't look like they do.

  • Here's a link to the wrestlers and coaches press conference from earlier today. It actually starts around the 45 minute mark, but before that is McD with I think the first actual smile I've ever seen from him.

    Brands and McD are in both the press conferences.

    Gold medals aren't really made of gold. They're made of sweat, determination, and a hard-to-find alloy called guts.

    Should we start a separate thread for updates? Or just keep it all in the big one?

  • Also for those of you who want it, here's the trackwrestling link to keep track (haha) of who is wrestling next, who is wrestling now, and who wrestled. It's great. You can filter results and keep track of whos coming up by school to see what mat they're on. Pretty nice system.

    I'm on it. I've got the xbox w/ ESPN3 or whatever it's called, the radio w/ Ironside and Gracie, and trackwrestling for everything else. I'll be updating on Iowa (duh), tOSU, Minnesota, Penn State, Oklahoma State, and UNI. Pretty much all the contenders plus UNI and tOSU.

    On the radio, I can never find it online unless I want to pay for it (which I never do), so I just use the old alarmclock-radio.

  • Just fired up the xbox, not sure what ESPN3 is doing, but I think it's Mat 3, 4, 5 and 6. Unless of course they mis-labeled the streams, which is probably what happened.

    I bet they do this. It will be the middle 4 mats... Seems appropriate to me

  • Alrighty so there are 10 pigtail matches, then we'll start at 125. McD will be in the first 8 to go, since he's the 3 seed and the pigtail winner won't go right away.

    Waters against Thorn should be a good one right out of the gate.
