What's this?

It was great to see the finals on TV, but the coverage really annoyed me.

I think ESPN's coverage of NCAA's is much better with split screens. As an example, NBC televised one of the women's matches and at the very end showed Gable Steveson getting his hand raised in match 1 with Gwiz. Another time they showed Jordan Oliver's first match while David Taylor and Bo Nickal were wrestling.

For me those two matches (Gable/Gwiz & Taylor/Nickal) were two of the most anticipated US freestyle matches in years. I couldn't believe they weren't shown. At least we got to see both Dake/Burroughs matches.
