The scramble had been going on for about 40 seconds with nobody ever close to actually scoring.  Man, you guys hate Iowa that much you want to root for the guy who, as a senior returning finalist, had no legitimate offensive opportunities against a true frosh, who had multiple deep shots and opportunities to score. 

I don't think questioning the stoppage is hating on Iowa.  I saw it live and thought it seemed premature.  Haven't rewatched the sequence and wasn't on here posting about it but it's a legit question.  I do agree with you that some of the other comments have been below the belt but not on this particular subject.

Correct, but I thought we were talking about Iowa

Has anyone that was supplanted by a transfer actually been a legit AA threat?  The closest I can think of is probably Glazier and he has not done well this season

Ferrari had a close 3-1 match with CStar and now he beat #3 Plott. I'm no wrestling coach, but I'd love to hear more about why he's redshirting. (Arnold, of course, is an excellent wrestler.)

He has a lot of work to do on bottom and that doesn't bode well come tournament time.  Why rush things?  Give him the year and offseason to polish things up

haha, that stall call

why not go down?!

Math doesn't make sense to

If Amine cannot continue, that probably makes it a dual win for Iowa

Didn't look too bad but those knee injuries are sneaky

@VakAttack double or nothing.  I'll take the 3peat for Sudden Victory @165...You get ending in regulation?

Except Parco had a cross wrist locked up and Young was flat on his belly. Jamison didn't and Rhodes wasn't.

Never attempted to turn.  That's stalling

Why?

Parco parallel rides the entire period they call it on Young.  Jamison parallel rides all period they call in on Jamison.  Keep it consistent or don't call it at all

Terrible stall calls

I'm going to get so drunk if this is another 1-0 win

Carter Young is a poor man's Cam Amine.  If you don't put him on his back he'll grind out a close loss

Just now, VakAttack said:

Over.

I'll take the under

over/under for match points @149 5.5?

So what was the thought to not have Witcraft go? Fun to see Sakamoto but not sure I follow the reasoning

I'm assuming they thought he had a chance in the takedown battle.  Plan didn't work when he had to wrestle on the mat

Sakamoto has been coached well in folk for doing it for only one year.  Pretty incredible actually 

That early ride sucked the life out of him.  Welcome to the harder style of wrestling Mr. Sakamoto

Nasty slide by

Now this is fascinating

Agreed. Afaik Sakamoto has no history with folk besides his work in the room. 

Lol, you know you're getting old when you see Afaik and think to yourself, "that doesn't sound Japanese".  Took a few head scratches to realize it's an abbreviation.

Gonna be nothing but black/yellow folk around me but they promised not to call STALLING! 

 

That ain't happening.  

I always thought it would be clever for Oklahoma State to change the Pistol Pete mascot to John Wayne for their Iowa Dual.

Rin Sakamoto weighed in for OKST?

Most interesting match of the night for me if it happens.  That kid can wrestle. Anyone know his history with folk?

Do you have an opinion on leg riding? Do you have an opinion on cross body vs parallel?

This is how it's supposed to be done.  Start @2:11

Wade Schalles is the Godfather in this category.

I know they're from eastern Ohio...

St. Edward's wrestling program is easily the most successful in the state of Ohio, and consistently one of the top programs in the nation.  Located in Lakewood, Ohio it is officially in the Eastern Time Zone.  States=Success
