If Arnold tries one of those rolls against Starocci it may be a pinfall. Went to that well once too ofen.

The vaunted pinfall.  ‘tis a rare species not often seen amongst the more common decks, sticks, and pastes of the 21st century.

Salazar finishes that shot at 184. Glad he moved up to get Max in the lineup though:

[RockLobster]

Beginning of 3rd, but I like Salazar here IF he can get the escape.

Salazar is an ox.  I bet that cut down to 184 was not fun.

[Mr. PeanutButter]

Salazar presented an endless salad bar but it wasn't enough 

[Jimmy Cinnabon]

Buchanan was noticeably larger than Salazar.

Arnold needs to be at 174 next year. Max looked way bigger than him. 

He's at 184 for the team, but unless those guys were just head and shoulders better, they should have let him go 174 and had one of them bump to 184.

I’m glad bartlett and arnold didn’t shoot in their matches so salazar could have a few shots in the bag to throw at buchanan a go in the last 30 seconds. 

Word on the street is the three of them aren’t permitted more than a combined ten shots in a given 24-hour period.

Just need Gable to get a 17 point pin.

[buckshot]

Who is a bigger clown?
 

Arnold for calling out Starocci when he's barely a top-ten guy?

Cassioppi for saying he was going to break the all-time pin record?

[Wrestleknownothing]

What contrasting body types at heavy

[Mr. PeanutButter]

Not even in the same universe 

[pawrestler]

Well that was brutal

[wrestle87]

Levels to levels.  That was absolutely savage.

Legitimately asking an age group world champ “you alright?” with concern in a d1 wrestling match is incredible.

I wonder what Steveson said to him.

[headshuck]

What did Kueter say to Gable after the near pin? Haha, you need longer toes?

Felt like 15 points of entertainment.

He's the man.  I feel lucky I'm getting to watch him in person one more time.

I love half time interview with Brands. He always looks so totally baffled at the concept

You could edit this to just…

”He always looks so totally baffled.”

and leave it at that.

What a show.  Was so great seeing him in person in Evanston last month.  I really hope he sticks around and goes freestyle.

I’m calling it right now, teemer won’t place at ncaa’s this year.

He looks hurt, and I think big ten’s is going to beat him up enough that he runs into a small conference trie hard kid and he eierman’s out his senior year.

Teemer is going to win ncaas. He scores when he wants to. Once his timing and conditioning are fully back it's game over.

[RawDog]

Poor Keuter, who do you guys think is more dominant? Gable or Messinbrink?

I gotta go with Gable.  Messenbrink can score with gas pedal and motion, but guys can grab him and slow him down a bit.

Gable is out there with the biggest,  strongest guys on each team, and he treats them like they are made out of paper mache.  The only reason someone in college stays on the mat all seven minutes with Gable is because Gable doesn’t feel like working too hard that match.  I know Keuter’s not likely AA level, but he’s in R12 discussion. Gable treated him like he was a 5th grader.  He legitimately might have been able to beat him using just one arm.  And that’s nothing against Keuter, that’s just Gable being an alien level wrestler.  Legitimately generational.

I’d go so far as to say that the last time a whole field was this outclassed by one guy was Cael’s senior year.
