It’s on BTN.

 

[Jersey Boys]

It’s on BTN.

Doh!!!

 

[RU Diesel07110]

BTN at 9

 

[RU Diesel07110]

I got Creedo over minneo by tech fall!!

 

[Jersey Boys]

BTN at 9

Yes, had a minor midlife brain lapse.

 

[jerzey devil]

i have PSU winning 141 by major and 174 by dec. 27-7 Iowa...

 

[wngarbarini]

Iowa 23
PSU7

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Wing had it in for psu lol

 

[wngarbarini]

It is nice to see pre-match coverage of the big battle. I am really looking forward to 165 and 174. Also 133 should be a war. Hopefully DeSanto does not bite RBY!

 

[SCNJ]

I think Iowa takes this but Penn State can rally late. Penn State is underdog in all 3 of the top weights but I wouldn’t be stunned if Penn State took all 3 of them.

Bold take: Marinelli majors Vincenzo

 

[MS-RU]

Spencer Lee is a TF machine...just incredible to watch.

 

[koleszar]

RBY had that cradle all locked up. Brands with his usual big mouth costs them a point.

 

[MS-RU]

Wow, Iowa catches a huge break on that injury stoppage... RBY had that cradle locked up.

Iowa loses a team point also.

 

[koleszar]

RBY wins by medical default. That's huge for psu.

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Wow. Desanto is a wild card never know what you get. That 1st cradle scared him and then he was shot.

 

[MS-RU]

PSU leads 6-4 after 2. That's a huge swing for PSU.

 

[SCNJ]

Still not really sure what caused the injury

 

[wngarbarini]

I assume AD was hurting but it looked like he just quit. Walked off ok. In his head?

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Definite breakdown. Got cradled twice and cried out twice.

 

[MS-RU]

He walked off but he was in serious pain on the mat. You could tell he wasn't right all match.

 

[RU Diesel07110]

I think he was OK until he got caught in that first cradle

 

[koleszar]

I assume AD was hurting but it looked like he just quit. Walked off ok. In his head?

I watched the replay during commercial in slo-mo to see if I could see where it happened. I couldn't find a damn thing. Weird.

 

[RutgersRaRa]

Match not going the way I'd hoped. Also, serious bonus in every match.

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Nick lee is on a mission

 

[jerzey devil]

Still not really sure what caused the injury

What injury? He wussed out!!

 

[wngarbarini]

Let’s see if AD wrestles in Iowa’s next meet?

 

[SCNJ]

What injury? He wussed out!!

I don’t buy that

 

[Lips Manus]

I think that knee is messed up. Hes a nut but a tough nut. Also these stall calls are way to quick in this match.

 

[MS-RU]

The consistency with stalling calls is absolutely awful.

 

[Lips Manus]

Wish RU could develop the upper weights like the lower and middle. That's gonna hold RU back from being an upper tier team. Seems once we get to 57 the talent recruiting and developing takes a dip. Only reason I bring it up is look at the back end of these teams.

 

[Lips Manus]

Hate to say it but RU needs to upgrade that upper weight coach. Gotta bring in a legit upper weight coach with credentials.

 

[SCNJ]

Iowa might be in trouble

 

[jerzey devil]

Now that 165 was B1G wrestling!!! Fun to watch!!

 

[MS-RU]

Wow, never expected to see Hall get beat like that. He has been so dominate. Kemerer was incredible defensively.

 

[SCNJ]

I did not expect Hall to lose this season. Wow.

Time to hand the Hodge to Zahid

 

[RU Diesel07110]

Good to see hall go down

 

[Jersey Boys]

Kemerer with some slick scrambling. Carver bites Hall yet again.
