  1. Taking the whole tournament into account, and ignoring the fact that Penn State won by 55, points I have to say yes. There were just a huge number of upsets, including Ramos pinning Spencer, Vito dominating Fix and RBY, 12 seed Van Ness battling back time and time again to take 3rd, and more. However, despite Penn State winning by its largest margin ever, as a Penn State fan, this was the least enjoyable finals I've ever watched. Going 2/5 in the finals is actually one of Cael's worst finals performances after multiple 5/5 years and 4/4 years. Overall though, Penn State, as a team should be pleased even though the night ended on a sour note.
  2. So is the ankle pinch ride employed by AOC, Woods, et al
  3. I'm a tool for pointing out why Grey won? Ok buddy.
  4. Nope. So don't get mad at me for the fact that Grey won.
  5. I wasn't the one who voted for Grey. That would be all the other coaches...call them tools.
  6. Does Spencer get just 1 loss on the season or do his MFFs count?
  7. Howard has had so many injuries I don't think we can count on him to last a whole season, sadly. Is Parris a senior? What about Hendrickson?
  8. Kerk needs to get his mind right. Spend more time with Carter and Brooks. Wearing a Jesus t-shirt isn't enough. RBY still had a great career, just wish he finished it with a win.
  9. Kerk was not. He was mauled twice by Parris this year. After Vito dominated Fix I had him as the favorite but I expected it to be more a 50/50 match. It ended up being like 90/10.
  10. That is a bad take...assuming you'll win is why RBY is only a 2x champ. Penn State needs to load up all the firepower they can. Cornell has shown they have top tier talent as much as Penn State. And Iowa will always be right there.
  11. Very happy. They both overachieved big time by taking 3rd. But super disappointed in Kerk's effort and RBY just got taken to the woodshed.
  12. Yes. They are amazing. Their fans probably feel better than Penn State fans like me.
  13. Yup, many reviews literally took longer than the entire match.
  14. It seems absurd to say this when Penn State won it's 10th title in 11 (contested) years...and won by 50 points over Iowa. However, we only went 2/5 in the finals. 157 - Haines loss was expected. He's a 18 year old true freshman wrestling a 25 year old 6th year senior who is a defending national champ. He simply got big brothered. I think Haines will win one before he's done. 174 - Starocci. What can you say? He's cocky, he's brash, he also is now a 3x champ. 184 - Brooks. He's so good. Wish he'd tone down the preaching during the post-match interview. The dig at Muslims was bad form, I think. HWT - Kerk took one shot and seemed to be spent. Parris is just so much better but I think Kerk's mental game and conditioning need a lot of work. He seemed to give up after going down 2-0. 133 - RBY. He got owned, simple as that. Vito was just as fast and twice as long. RBY perhaps got a little cocky but Vito is just better. I hope RBY comes back for another year. Does he have another year left? Overall, I am only about 75% happy with the way NCAAs went for Penn State. Again, I know it seem ludicrous to whine when out of 9 wrestlers you finished 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, 1st, 7th, 2nd...but it feels like a letdown. Penn State needs to get David Carr in blue and white next year.
  15. Yianni wins it. Only 4 timer this year.
  16. I think they are equally quick. The difference is Vito is much longer. Dude has Yianni arms.
  17. This has been the craziest finals in recent memory. Almost no one is safe.
  18. As a Penn state fan the only positive I can take from tonight is maybe RBY comes back next year.
