personally, and i know i'm almost assuredly in the minority, i don't care at all about the team race. it is an individual tournament. if they want to crown a team champion, it should be in a dual meet format.
@@CroMagJohnson100% agree. This is all about the individuals. I don’t understand why D1 doesn’t have a national dual tournament. Don’t get me wrong I do enjoy the team race every year and it does matter but the National Tournament matter more for the individual
Thank you for this video. What a great look at the history. I thoroughly enjoyed this. It was done so well. In spite remembering the results, while watching you made me feel like I was watching it for the first time and not knowing who would win. Thanks for showing the history leading towards this 2018 tourney. Plus the back stories of all the wrestlers. I forgot this was the year Connel had the upset at 197. Nicely done.
took me a couple of days to finish due to school and work, but wow! what an amazing job you have done Tan! keep it up, I think Ohio State is soon to build another super team with their multiple freshman all-americans including Rocco Welsh who gave Carter Starocci his two hardest matches in the entire 23-24 season. I love wrestling, and I love your content.
Really enjoyed the documentary, some of your best work yet. I think your bonus point scores are wrong in the consolations. Pins, no matter what side of the bracket are 2.0 bonus points. Like wise for tech falls (1.5 bonus) and major decisions (1 point).
I remember they pushed Ohio State SO hard in promos and commercial breaks. They were clearly the biggest storyline. Tan Tom hedged his best all week leading up by claiming they would be the best second place team of all time if they couldn't beat Penn State.
The tournament, especially the finals, is much more exciting when there's actual competition for the team race.

as a penn state fan, i like it a lot better when we win by 100 tbh
Agreed
This is a great doc, and there’s lots of fans of collegiate and folk style wrestling fans that need this content. This is amazing.

Nice documentary
This is awesome. Thank you Tanner!
Man, that was a great watch!
This tournament featured so many stars, and guys that have or probably will be Olympians if not Olympic Champions.
Lets be honest here...Cael gifted the 2015 Natty to OSU. If he doesnt redshirt Zain, Nolf and Nickal its not close.
Great video
Well done brother... well done
Proud of you!! 💛
Very good ending!
Great video! I’ve always thought of Zahid Valencia as the standout wrestler of that tournament. What are your thoughts on this?
Nice work here man
The goat J ROB man, arguably my favorite coach
Fire video bro 🔥
Well done!!
Nice doc
Know nothing about wrestling but great vid

Sheptok was my teammate. I wrestled in that NCAA tourney as a true fresh at 133, I went 0-2 BBQ hahahaha still was fun though
crazy how many of these people I wrestled since childhood
21:29 one of the biggest d-bags you'll ever meet
58:18 haha Diehlllllllllllll, my guy
1:07:07 beat him a few times in college, super nice guy. Was pumped to see him AA.
1:10:20 Yuuuuuuuuusiffffff, literal nicest guy ever
Bro Caraon Kuhn the fill in 125 for psu was literally coaching my club in boise that year and he left to go scrap
That’s savage

1:13:45 why that look like Spencer lee?

Logan Steiber should have only been a 3x champ.
Great wrestler but JO beat him in that championship match.
Ohio state is rearing up to challenge them next year
♥️🩸🩸🩸
