Perhaps it was initially, I didn't hear it if that was the case. But Bartlett certainly took injury time. Heard it very clearly on the broadcast

if they win this challenge 

[Mr. PeanutButter]

Um, I'm not sure if that's a takedown 

[pawrestler]

The ref telling Cael to throw the brick further lol

[MNRodent]

Did the ref scold Cael for a weak brick throw?

Kasak bellied out after the TD was called.

The initial action, called a TD, was NOT a TD. That was terrible.

You could argue the sequence eventually resulted in a TD but the initial call was really bad and happened way too fast.

PSU is so good I have to root against them. I also don’t like Truax for transferring there, the rich get richer. 
 

all in all penn state is good for wrestling and evolving the sport but I love rooting against them

Had it gone to ot, momentum had clearly shifted in Hardy’s favor

Oh? So it was a lock?

Little bit behind here... That stoppage when Hardy all but had the takedown on Bartlett was complete bullshit!

Jesus Levi

Man Haines motor is pushing some horse power!

[Le duke]

Whatever was ailing him earlier this year, Haines seems to have fixed it.

Wow.

Damn right it’s a duck and there should be some sort of.penalty to a coach when he pulls this crap.

To be fair, Shunk is a Senior, I’m not 100% sure but this might be senior night, Regardless, it is Penn State’s last big dual match of the year.  It’s cool of the coaches to let Shunk take the mat.  That sort of thing matters to practice room warriors.

PSU has senior night next week vs Edinboro. Nagao sick per Jeff Byers

[SocraTease]

Watching guys like Manning (Brands and Bono, too) scream and make faces during a match gives me a sense of their desperation.  And subsequently it seems hard to root for them.  

[Truzzcat]

Meyer has been my pick all year but that pace Levi is putting on makes me feel less than confident about it.

Meyer Shapiro is slick but Haines is tough as nails and fundamentally very sound.   He usually can counter the funk.  But it promises to be a great match if/when it happens.
