Lyon being a #30 seed who went on a run proves that he wasn't as good as Hidlay, better than Jessen, Kane, Cochran and Moore, and not as good Romero. (3 of those matches were Big 10 matchups, and shocker a big 10 wrestler won)
Jessen was #32 and went 0-2 in the same bracket as Lyon that doesn't mean he wasn't qualified. It just means the guys he lost to were better on Thursday.
It’s not about the tournament. It’s about getting in the tournament.
Bison fans are blessed. Enjoy it.
