Best not to lean on that.

Threadkilla Posted January 18 Posted January 18 (edited) I haven't read anything in this thread, but I just watched The duel, nothing shocking, I think van ness and lovett could go either way every time they wrestle, all I'd lovett scoring was in the last minute. the only thing is stuck out to me was Kasak is a badass.

Le duke Posted January 18 Posted January 18 The baseline defense for Penn State is insane. Watch Haines and Starocci and the way they just kill a pretty good shot, then move through their process of countering it and scoring. They each have their slight variations but the basics are the same. You can have your hands locked, leg pulled in, and they don’t panic.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2

Rock, you missed some action and didn't have access to rewind and see what actually happened, the WKN is faulting you for a live take that missed the replay.. The call, despite my rooting for Hardy, was correct, and you two are arguing over nothing. Rock, you didn't watch the conclusive angle where Brock clearly lost riding time, and Wkn, you're arguing against someone who is justifying their position based on not seeing the replay/conclusive evidence. Sure, in real time it might have seemed like Hardy should have won, and certainly with replay and slow-mo, it was clear that albeit close, Bartlett won. Just stop.
