'26 Final X, 6/19, thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Every time I watch Snyder, I think of 19-18 and that final takedown attempt late in the 3rd when Nevills was all but taken down but then still got his legs back in a sprawl.
Marcus out talents and bonuses most everybody he wrestles. Against guys who wrestle at his own elite level he wrestles with a plan to win a close match, you disagree with that thought process and you somehow believe you are the smart one. Typical. The dumbest phuck in the room tends to know it the loudest.
97 kilograms round two: Kyle Snyder vs. Stephen Buchanan (Snyder leads 1-0)
The match is underway. Buchanan warned for passivity at 5:14. Buchanan was in on a leg but Snyder briefly fended it off but Buchanan kept at it and pushed Snyder off the mat for a 1-0 lead at 4:52. Snyder now warned for passivity at 4:28. Syder now in on a single and has Buchanan's leg up in the air and is dragging him back toward the center of the mat as Buchanan hops around. Ends up settling for the step out to tie the match at one with 3:45 left. Snyder now in on a shot but Buchanan fends it off. Rinse repeat on that. Buchanan coutner shoots but Snyder circles around on him leading to a stalemate at 3:09. And the period ends.
Snyder leads Buchanan 1-1 on criteria (last point scorer)

Kyle just had a really nice shot that was beautiful. 5-1 now. Sorry to spoil, but it was sweet.
Kyle Snyder is a freaking beast. We have light weight, middle, and Heavy wrestlers that are the Best in the World….Refs are Unreal
WTF?!?! That is awful!!! Truly one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen. Where the **** was the caution and 1?
Buchanan only been wrestling freestyle 1 year. He's learning fast. He beat Yazdani this year . Yazdani just beat Azapira to make the team at 97. Azapira beat Snyder
Is Iowa developing Buchanan?
Is Iowa developing Buchanan?
Lets let more women ref. What a ridiculous call.
I think they called it when Snyder puts his head on the mat out of bounds to force the reset. Definitely a bizarre one I have never seen.
Back to our conversation from earlier: It's beyond ridiculous that, unless there is a change in protocol, the reason for that penalty point will never be made public.
Is this refs vs NLWC? for real though there were some crazy calls in a bunch of matches, both matches that are going to 3rd match is because of scrappy calls!
let them ref women's matches. what in the world was that??? did I miss something besides the fact that buchanan is not allowed to pull a Stevenson and just get up and walk away???
Bleaching your hair should be an automatic point deduction
She didn't signal the call. The chair did. I still have no idea where it came from.
No worries. Snyder will beat him next round. He’s simply better
Correct. Chill with the misogyny
Not sure how they missed the intentional release from Buchanan. I’m in awe.
I, for one, look forward to another long hiatus from reading your stupidity.
O I didn't
. . Also the 1 caution she gave to Snyder was BS Buchanan had a whizzer and put his foot down

She called a caution saying Snyder put his head out of bounds
. Odd thing is it got confirmed so she's not actually fully at fault. I have to watch it again I never saw her call it
Just wish we had Lewan out there at 61 KGs

Blaze will need at least 4 points to win match #3 he's gotta start attacking more
Did you read about that one that was killed on OBX recently. Kicked by another horse.
Agree that was bad. Usaw loves them some DT
there was no stalling. me thinks someone wants to keep PSU out. Ditto Synder
