Match Notes for '26 Indiana and Maryland
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Remember when MD Coach Clemson admonished Coach Casey that "You don't have to pin every single one" (or something to that effect)?
That was January 2024. PSU won 42-6 and only had 4 falls that dual (four of the last five bouts). They also had two 15-0 Tech Falls, which, I know, is sooo lame.
Do you think Coach Casey has turned over a new leaf in the past two years?
Will PSU get more than four falls this year?

I do remember. But I also remember the goal of wrestling is to actually pin your opponent. How funny.
Was this the incident in the post-match handshake line where the MD coach was angry with Casey and Starocci said "Coach Casey would kick his ***"?
It’s not getting any better this year Coach Clem
Looks like Svn has the toughest match up vs maryland Carter young. Blaze has Braxton brown. Would not surprise me if the good guys get double shutouts.
Thru 9 dual meets PSU has a TOTAL of just 4 individual losses in 90 dual matches!!!! Unheard of ever!
Carter was a little more creative. It was something like "Coach Casey would fold that blow bag like an accordion. That's if I don't come up top with a hook first"
Some were upset about what Carter said, it wasn't like Carter's take wasn't accurate.
"Surprise" you? There will be more bonus matches than decisions by a wide margin, and the decisions not that close. I only have 2 out of 22 possible matches as decisions, and neither are the matches you list.
Short of sickness or injury, even a single loss at any weight would be a huge upset IMO. This weekend is a blood bath. The only upset may be in the form of a snow day.
good deal for PSU fan getting to see their team there since tickets are so hard to get!
Maryland match moved up one day
Maryland Wrestling Continues Big Ten Slate vs. No. 1 Penn State in Newly Rescheduled Dual - University of Maryland Athletics

To beat the weather quick falls may be in order.
Changing to Saturday will change some conditioning considerations. There will no training through on Saturday so the legs will be fresher. The Maryland coach will probably be really pissed about the number of falls on Saturday.
