White gets a major with a 10 to 2 decision. Geer's win is big but we got a break in that the North Carolina State wrestler is struggling with his health.

I didn't see the first takedown, when I started watching Joe was up 2-1 and Marinelli was in deep on a single and Joe hit him with a slick little behind the foot trip and went up 4-1 late in the first. He got out easily and it was 4-2 going to the 2nd. Joe took bottom and was ridden the whole period and got hit with a stalling.
Marinelli got a quick escape to open the 3rd. (4-3 with RT almost locked) Got a takedown and rode Joe the rest of the 3rd. I missed the 2nd stall call late in the 3rd so the final score was 7-4.

Yep.i guess too much pride from our coaches.joe and jacobe are best on their feet.joe gets beat and jacobe surbives.dumb.
Especially with Joe’s gas tank issues against a tough rider like Marinelli... not a good decision IMO.
8-2 with some nice bonus. One upset and were upset in one.
Wish G was healthy here at the end as he would be dangerous. Lots of good wrestling left!

Got a little different take on some things...
- Jacobe taking down was the right move IMO. Hughes punishes the lower ranked guys but doesn't turn top 10 guys (that I've seen anyway). For example, he brutalized Hestin Lamons at Reno a few years ago but got pummeled by Joe this year. That's on Jacobe to get out. But survive and advance, so he'll be fine.
- Joe taking down was the right move also. Choosing down is a good way to conserve energy if you have a poor gas tank. Rest for 45 seconds then get out and get your point. Marinelli is not Daniel Lewis on top. If Joe goes neutral he probably fades even faster.
- G is healthy enough IMO (Chris said as much a couple of weeks ago). He's just being too conservative right now. He needs to let loose and do damage on the back side.
All in all, I think we look good.
