I don't get the hype with Bouzakis.  The best wrestler he's gone against this year in Volk took him to OT and he ducked a shot at Robinson.

I think its because of how dominant he has been since Clarion. Outside of the volk match he has pinned Peterson, beat poulin 9-2, majored Moran, and teched Renteria who took second at vegas. Luke seems to be hitting his stride more this past month but other than him nobody seems to really be separating from the field Seymour is the only undefeated guy left and he only has a 25% bonus rate.

They wrestled two backups and won. I do not think they won a match where they "backed up and took timeouts" so I do not know why you are upset.

And those 2 starters are 157 and 165 were guaranteed to win??? Wrong

Yea Nic has the best resume at 125 based on this year alone. He has beat 2 AAs, and three other top 10-15 guys.

Wrestling your second road dual in three days in late January against a tough opponent is often a recipe for disaster.  A lot of guys look beat up/tired.  I've often criticized Ohio State over the years but yesterday was a gutty performance by both teams all things considered.

A voice of reason. Well said.

That was an awesome dual.  Minto looks like the real deal.  Mendez and Mini Mendez(Davino), didn't look like they were backing up to me.  Bouzakis looks legit.  Nebraska just needs a 25 lber and they would have a super salty team.

What about wrestling Indiana and Maryland on the same weekend?

I think he has only been scored on offensively once in the third period? Could be wrong on that.

I meant this as more of a compliment.  Anytime in the 1st period he gets his hands locked in any way, he just seems to rag-doll people.  Doesn’t quite seem the case in periods 2 and 3.  Not that he’s gassing, but he is able to generate a type of power early in matches that is rare.  Reminds me of Spencer in that way.  I’d want to stall my ass off in period 1 and take my chances from there.

oh I gotcha I agree there have been a few instances where he has been close to either a major or a tech where he does not exactly shut it down but he also does not really push for it so I agree. I have to imagine he is pretty mindful about his energy expenditure even as good as he has looked at 125 I still have to imagine he is killing himself to get there he is just not a small dude.

That doesn't seem possible. :classic_ohmy:
