What? PSU does a ton of catch & release in duals. I thought their MO was to run up a bunch of points first and foremost

I think he meant going neutral instead of taking down 

[Pin Head]

With Bouzakis and Cannon questionable, what if they start with Kilkeary / McCrone and bump Davino, Mendez and Stiles ? If it goes chalk they will lose , I would love to see them take the first five and win with Feldman. Long shot but Mendez vs. Van Ness would be worth the price of a ticket.

Mendez against Van Ness would be an incredible match

I would favor Mendez. He has been lights out all year and Van Ness has been giving up a lot of takedowns lately.

SVN will give up that first takedown and won't catch up to Mendez

Yes. If it were to happen and Mendez beats SVN, should be no debae he's the Hodge frontrunner heading into BIGs.

If Lilledahl can get to his legs and quickly cut him he will wear him out. If Bazooka gets Lilledahl's head outside on a single or a body lock, even for a mat return you never know.

Sounds like The Mountain vs. The Viper. Hope it doesn’t end the same way.

McCrone is medically RS…so it would Kilkeary and an automatic MD (at least) to start right off the bat. And…as awesome as Mendez vs SVN would be I just don’t see mass bumping as worth it. We don’t have the depth to pull this off.

It's not and "we" don't...

Lilledahl is super quick and has excellent timing - I think he grabs the first takedown, but makes the mistake of trying to ride.  Bouzakis catches the leg as Lilledahl tries throwing it in, sits out, leans back into Lilledahl securing a reversal and four backpoints.  Lilledahl fights off his back and works his way to an escape, but down 6-4 after the first period.  The tone changes after that, and Bouzakis uses physicality to hold off the win, with the possibility of a TD for Bouzakis late as Lilledahl pushes in desperation for a TD of his own.

I think Bouzakis goes up early, and LL summons Penn state magic and runs him down towards the end. I’m thinking like a 3-1 match for Nic after the first, that ends in a 5-4 or 6-4 at the end for Luke

Realistic take. Hopefully LL doesn’t try to ride and just does catch and release.

When was the last time SVN gave up bonus?

From my research, SVN has only been bonused once in his college career. Lovett beat him 10-2 in 2025.
