Maryland/Michigan State

[1032004]

Terps win 28-15

Good SV match at 157 between Saldate and North.   Situation slightly reminiscent (but not nearly as egregious) of Davis/Kilkeary IMO where Saldate has to bridge off his back but gets off and ends up getting the Takedown himself.  Situation starts around 23:00 in the video below.

MSU forfeited 125 (where they would have been favored), and Hamdan got a minor upset over Kal Miller at 141, but everything else went about as expected.

North is your prototypical hot/cold wrestler. He'll wrestle lights out against a top-20 guy one week, and then get tossed around by a backup the next. 

Good match for the Terps. They still have 3 or 4 worrisome holes in the lineup, where they typically hemorrhage points (most acutely at 125, where they've given up bonus point in 8/10 duals this season). But they are improving.
