Wrestling MATCHDAY THREAD: No. 13 Rutgers Wrestling vs. No. 11 Michigan

The whole weekend Moore couldn’t keep unranked guys off his legs and had basically zero offense. Looked like a completely different wrestler. No idea why he was out there if he isn’t healthy, etc but man he lost all the momentum and goodwill in terms of rankings, seedings, etc in 15 minutes.
 
No way that TD counted right? It was like 3 seconds after the buzzer. Either way our team has ZERO situational awareness or sense of urgency. It’s truly mind blowing…
Getting taken down at the end of periods or allowing guys to get out at the end of periods has been a common theme with this team for multiple years at all weight classes.

What does that tell you?
 
On paper, we were slight underdogs at 125 and 133

141 was the major upset and it hurts.
157 RU was a HUGE underdog.

Still think RU has 4 o r5 blood round wrestlers this year.
Want to see the old Turley, SOldano and the new and improved Poz!!!

For WNG:
-Peterson - basically lost bc he couldnt get out in 2nd period. Yes DeAug stalled his ass off but need to find a way. And his offense was non existent as usual. 0 shots, 2-1 loss
-Shawver - was up and thought he would do it. The 2 stall calls and cautions so 2 extra pts changed match. Still like how he is wrestling, needed to get out from bottom faster 8-5 loss
-Moore - what to say except lost to a Freshman and looked slow, gassed and just bad. Great example of a guy thinking he can win and wanting it more 10-7 loss
-Cetta - only real positive. Wrestled great 8-2 win I think
-DeSantis - was never going to win but should not have gotten majored. How many takedowns under 20 sec!! 10-2 loss

Sidenotes:
-Refing might be worst we have ever seen
-Team looks lethargic and low energy besides Cetta. Almost like they know they are going to lose
 
Gayer down 1-0 after two. Standing tall and holding his own thus far.
 
The ref just let this Walker kid do nothing but defend the entire 1st yet hit us for stalling in a similar situation.
