Iowa fans Complaining the Officials are for Penn State, Levi was pinned in the 1st. Blah…..blah….

 

[BVSt.Paul]

It’s a good thing I work from home cause I’d get kicked out of the office for excessive enthusiasm.

 

[GregPickel]

No mat assignment yet for Dean, FYI

[NormanChad]

It was incredible to see it in person. PSU fans went from stunned in the 1st, to utter eruption.

 

[LifeLongLion]

Holy ****!

 

[GregPickel]

We have a break here at 165, of course.

I'm at school on my prep watching with some students. Got pretty loud with the Haines pin.

It’s not technically over. But it’s over. Lol.

IDK what kind of live sacrifice Cael performed before this tournament but it's working!

It's called not cutting 30 pounds like every other school. Keeps the gas tank full.

it's amazing to me, after being a ref for many years, how wrong so-called good fans can be about things. I went back and re-watched the 1st period of Haines's match. A combination of a good bridge by Levi, and his right shoulder/scapula not being on the mat, made it never really close to a pin. Haines was in trouble, for sure, but he didn't lose his composure, and avoided the pin.

It was over in January

Siebrecht is done.

They just don't understand Penn State wrestling. It's called moving

Byers has lost his voice and we’re not even done with the quarters yet

 

[LifeLongLion]

I think we all need a break after the last 30 minutes or so.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

@GregPickel -- I'll handle CStar's match, and you can do Brooks's match, if that works for you.

Whew... I made the mistake of going over to their board.... Don't anyone thinking about it. It's everything from Ped State, PSU is on steroids, to the refs and the NCAA are giving PSU the title and want them to win. It's flat out ugly. They get butt hurt every year when PSU pulls away in the Quarters/semis knowing Cael is that much closer to Gable's record.

I need someone to inject some ironhead into my veins after this session

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Holy **** Levi! Big mistake by VT challenging, gave Levi a 2nd wind. What guts

I thought the challenge was good, in that Andonian was awarded a TD there then it was waved off. (I didn't think it was a TD in real time or on replay.) Yeah, Levi got to catch his breath, but so did Andonian.

We fake injuries, we blow the ball off the tee,…

 

[Tom McAndrew]

wow, Amine (Mich) downs Hamiit (Wisky), 3-2

#11 seed takes down #3 seed

 

[Karl_Havok]

Did Griffith have it?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Griffith - Carr was quite a battle. Two great wrestlers. Appears Carr won 2-1. Griffith was close to a TD at the end, and they're going to video, but it didn't appear as though it was a TD

Edit: no TD call is confirmed

I think it might have been a human being with what we've witnessed.

 

[Karl_Havok]

165lbs is an absolute meat grinder this year. I think it's the deepest weight.

@Tom McAndrew You got C-Star?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

@Tom McAndrew You got C-Star?

yes. I'll do CStar, and you can handle Brooks
