Z is Rocky Balboa...and by the way, when I say he is the man, I mean that from the Cyclone perspective. I'm a totally nonbiased reporter from the Iowa State Daily...

That's basically what heavyweights do. They're too fat to score many points. :wink:
Big Z is not the fat one, he is the one that has to try and take down the whales.:yes:
I think it's
1st = 16
2nd = 12
3rd = 9
4th = 7
5th = 5
6th = 3
7th = 2
8th = 1
I'm not sure if Midlands has weird scoring for places or not.
Each championship match gives the winner five points, I believe - one for advancement and four from the difference of first- and second-place.
Basically, the Dennis/Fanthorpe and Morningstar/Reader matches are the key to the whole thing. A 10-point swing either way.

That's a small lead.

We would have collapsed already. I don't think we'll lose all the matches tonight.
True, but heavys all end up with low scores.
Standard NCAA scoring: 16-12-10-9-7-6-4-3
The only additional points tonight will be winners in the placing matches, and their bonus points. No advancement.
BTN is starting coverage at 7:00, and the finals start at 7:20. They will probably recap the semis (highlights only), then jump into the finals live. Don't expect any full matches other than championship matches.

From another board
Champion gets +4
3rd place gets +1
5th place gets +1
Plus any bonus points. No advancement points.

K thanks. So it would be an eight-point swing for the Dennis/Fanthorpe and Morningstar/Reader matches. A couple quick points:
-I have never seen Dennis wrestle. Fanthorpe has never wrestled Dennis (I asked him before the Iowa dual). Fanthorpe is favored not just by ranking, but also experience
-Reader sometimes gets too jacked up before matches. He's talked about it before. He has to get over that, but he had a week to think about the Iowa dual and an hour before his match, once the dual had started. He has a few hours until the championship match, but I'm guessing he'll be resting more than anticipating. Could be wrong.

I was guessing from info posted on here. I couldn't find any definitive answer on the Northwestern official site.
I'm trusting Shadow on this one.
For placement matches points are already added into the team scores; the wrestler that wins gets more and the loser doesn't get any more. For example: In the finals, both wrestlers are awarded the 12 for second place. The winner gets the other 4 to make up the 16. Goes that way all the way down the board.
