Gritty win for Plott. Will wrestle for third.
2025 NCAA Tournament
- Thread starter okokzach
- Start date
Gonna be hard for Plott to keep McEnelly off his legs. Hope he can get it done. Want to see him go out with a W
Plott wins a close one, just ground it out. When I watched Fugit from Wisconsin the thought, I had was Cael Hughes beat Fugit soundly in their senior year. Also, with portal talk I thought of us going after Alirez and it was implied he wanted a lot of money. My conclusion what a mistake that would have been because he did not do well at Big 12 and Nationals. Penn. St won 5 of 7 in consolation semi's and Nebraska Minto pulled out the win on a throw. I did not like that round.
Yeah, you only get a point on 3rd-8th place matches going forward, plus bonus. However, bonus is more uncommon late in the tourney. So you guys will more than likely have to sweep the finals and hope Nebby goes 0-3. Unfortunately, you have Gable at heavy.
2-1. Plott got a big reversal and ride out that was the difference.
Stevo getting dusted by Smith of Neb. Van Dee Neb up 3-1 on Knox. I hate Nebraska
Looks like Smith will get bonus on Stevo
Will, I think that's 3.5 more points for Neb. Let's go Fish & Amine

Amine was pinned finishes to seed at 8th; Good tourney for Amine
Fish loses 4-2 finishes above his 12th seed at 8th; Really good tourney for Fish
No more team points

Nebraska’s epic performance has nothing to do with us at least. We wrestled them once I think and won. Out of our control and hats off to them.
Nebraska wrestled great all weekend. So did our cowboys! Happy for the team trophy and not being disappointed. Second or third doesn’t really matter we chasing for number 1.

Gut reaction, still proud of him.
Why did Plott shoot there? I feel like half our losses this weekend were off crappy shots when we had a lead in the third.

What a miserable session, we did poor, and Penn. St. shined. Really hate it. What a horrible way to end a great career for Plott. He gives up 2 takedowns after riding the whole 2nd period and had a 3 to 0 lead. I hope this is not an indication how tonight will be because this session sucked. I thought appropriately Dustin would get a tough, workman like win but instead a painful loss. It was a great career.
Dustin just pulled a Fish and snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory... but he did wrestle to seed.
Wondering the same thing. He had riding time and the lead with no stall calls right?
Just have to wrestle smarter
agree 100%
what the heck was dustin doing?
shooting from downtown in the last 20seconds of a career he hasn’t taken a bad shot is nuts
but hey he dang sure put in the work to make his choices
great career and personal favorite
remember him from ok youth wrestling website as wrestler of the week as a
division 1 63llber when my son wrestled
dustin had 1 stall call
ref said he ran minny kid off mat
second time they went OB towards the table
Agreed but he didn't need to shoot to keep from getting a stall
If you watch Wyatts matches closely, his arm had limited strength, but yes the PSU guy did have a worse injury, sure. I still like Wyatts chances if they're both 100%
Agreed
He had 1 stalling call so he couldn't stall. Plott was obviously gassed. I don't mind him taking a shot if it is open. It wasn't open however and he got countered. You can't take poor shots against guys like that, especially when you're gassed.
Dustin Plott ended a fantastic career. You win national championships with guys like Dustin. Hope we have a roster full of them.
6, 6, 2, 4. Four time AA.
6, 6, 2, 4. Four time AA.
Shooting was not the problem you shoot when the guy is close and you can get a leg easy and then you hold on. A lot of heart breaking losses in the last 2 tournaments.
Super happy for Fish! If you get a roster of guys with that mindset, you’ve got something! Did he make some mistakes with 23 seconds left, yup!
But he’s an AA and that portrait goes up!
Plott…been a great ride with that guy! 4x AAs don’t grow on trees and we had the pleasure of witnessing it!

I missed all the matches this morning as well. Been sick the last few days and arrived in New Orleans this morning after our cruise. Spent the morning on Bourbon Street.
Not sure why ESPN chose 184 to start things. It doesn't make any sense to me. At the very least you'd think they'd want to draw out the anticipation a little more. BUT, Jordan Burroughs had a vote, and he and Carter don't mix well lol.
