Wow. Norman outscrambles O'Toole for the TD

That ginormous brace may not allow him the flexibility that makes him special in scrambles. IDK. It's pretty bulky though.

I don't think Cornell's tissue soft schedule this year is helping them  in this tourney. Yeah, their guys are healthy, but they aren't battle hardened, if you get my drift. I saw Minto winning that match from a mile away, I'm sure a lot of other guys did too. 

[Caveira]

I don’t see a lot of o’toole.  I know he was hurt last year.  Does he always wear that brace this year ?

[pawrestler]

OMG this Norman KOT match

Stanford's Norman is huge for 174

Can KOT make another comeback? down 6-2 going into 3rd

He was out for about two months with the injury

KOT is in trouble.

Very tall looking. He makes KOT look kinda pudgy. 

[pawrestler]

Norman is GASSED

[Wrestleknownothing]

Norman is gaaaaaased

[Boring]

Norman is pooped.  Nice comeback by KOT. Norman should've shot a single and just stalled off as much time as possible instead of retreating when he had the 7-3 lead.

Norman gasing and stalling 

[Mike]

And Norman is completely gassed

[Wrestleknownothing]

Not a good look for O'Toole

[NormMacDonald]

I didn't think there was any way KOT was coming back. 

[wrestlingfan22]

Norman has no gas tank, he looks unbeatable until he gets tired

I thought it was a great comeback by a champion who was challenged.

Norman is a tough matchup when he's on, O'Toole should crush whoever his semi opponent is but that performance doesn't look good for a Haines matchup

Oh, it was a great comeback. It was the need for the comeback that looked not good.
