He always does that. It is frustrating to watch. He gets more out of his talent than just about anyone I have ever seen, with rule manipulation.
-
It seems like the pressure of being undefeated is building on him a little. He is going to have to find another lever, which he could for sure. This version we have seen the last few weeks is not going to win it most likely.
-
He is officially put out of his misery. Very disappointing.
-
What on earth would be "neat" about A.J. ever stepping on a college mat again. The only neat thing is if he "drops the soap."
-
Not speaking with a tremendous amount of certainty but I believe all weights where there are more than 8 spots available there is a "9th place" tournament which is reseeded among the 6 guys that are not in the top 8. This should happen for Burwick, Morton and Emerson. It is not a part of the team scoring. I also believe the typically have one of these when only 8 spots are allocated as well. I think that one potential criteria for getting a wild card is finishing one place below the automatic allocation. Wilson could be involved in such a scenario if he loses in this next session.
-
Should be involved in a 9th place tourney if memory serves.
-
Obviously it is Davidson barring injury. However, there is no minimum match requirement, so it could theoretically be Emerson.

The World Famous ILLINI B1G Tournament Preview (Vol. 1)

The easy answer is you are wrong about him being the worst in all of them. -

They did put the time back on the clock so you might be correct. -

It was incredible to witness. I cannot understand that bizarre tying caution for the life of me. Can anyone explain this to me? -
There would be the same amount of wrestling if they did it like soccer, just as there is the same amount of soccer in a soccer match as if they stopped the clock for injuries and such.

Good point. I hadn't thought about it that way.

JaJenson09 recap. Cronin another dominating performance. He should be in the NCAA finals. Burwick. Got the first TD showig he can beat him. JUst needs to get off belly and not get gassed and he is All American candidate. Hardy controlled the match against a good wrestler. Should handle him easily next time. Morton Damn near put Sasso on his back early on. If he can do that top Sasso he is serious threat to qualify and score at nationals. Robb. Controlled the match and did a great roll through when he needed it. He shouldn't be touched after this wake up call. Wilson. He is back! He should be able to qualify. Labriola Great win. Was never in much jeopardy of losing in hostile environment. Pinto Not sure who he can't beat. Brooks in serious jeopardy. Allred. Just boatraces yet another guy. Should be a hell of a match with Dean in finals of Big 10. HWT. It was just strategy.
-
Reading comprehension must not be a strength. How Cronin fared against Lee in relation to how others have has absolutely nothing to do with how Cronin has done in his other matches. Your homerism has to at least make something resembling sense.
-
Everyone doesn't get dominated as bad as Cronin did though.
-
So the Lee match doesn't count? How exactly am I "trolling?". Because I am a level headed Husker fan and you are not, it makes me a troll? Ok padna.
-
I wonder why they wouldn't just "strategically" take a forfeit.
-
I am aware of Cronin results. I don't think he is a top 2 guy like you do. I hope I am wrong, but I don't base what I think on what I hope like you do. 149. It is an interesting strategy to give up 6. That makes no sense whatsoever. 174. Who cares? He did wrestle.

Thoughts from a Nebraska perspective. 125 Cronin was very good again. A small part of me things he is overachieving a fair bit. I hope I am wrong. I think it is a little bit too easy to get to his legs against the good ones and he won't be able to continue to fight it off one legged. He is great at it though. His game in general is strong and he could finish anywhere from 2nd to a 1-2 record in NCAA tourney. 133 Burwick is better than this, but the writing is on the wall that he cannot score much at NCAA. The challenge will be to make NCAA at this point. It is almost like he is so used to not being able to get out from Hardy in practice he has lost all confidence in being able to get out against anyone or something. Still hopeful he can find a little bit of confidence for when in matters most 141 Hardy was awesome. Class act as well. People not Husker fans are going to be very sick of him by the time he is done. I think he can beat anyone with his best match. Also starting to realize his floor is heartbreak round and inching close to being higher than that. He needs to seed himself into a good situation. 149 Just a debacle with the redshirt. Anyone know why the Huskers didn't have anyone ready to go tonight? 157 Robb rebounded from the takedown well. He is the small favorite to win at one of the weakest weights. Fun to watch. 165 Hopefully Wilson is just getting a couple weeks to reset and work on things before it gets important. Hopefully no injury. 174 Ruth is athletic and is very dangerous. Labs showed a lot of heart to get that win. I hope he is okay and perhaps that match will help his gas tank as long as he is okay. He had to go through hell to win that. Very important win. He needs to be a 2 or 3 at NCAA if he cannot beat Penn St at Big 10 tourney 184 Pinto another solid effort. I hope he can find a way to work up the seeding ranks. Probably going to have to be done at Big 10 tourney as it is getting late. The grueling match after match every hour at Cliff Keen could loom large in a bad way for his seeding. Tough weight class. 197 Allred with a huge win for seeding prospects. He is wrestling so much smarter of late. Not quite as risky with his stuff. Finding better situations for himself. He is very dangerous as he can always pin anyone at any time. It would be awesome if he and Pinto can go down a class next year. 285 I was excited to see what Andrews had. I had no idea he was so small. Is it possible he can be 197 if the others go down? He didn't look much bigger than Eric Schultz to me. What are we thinking he weighted in at? Is there any hope for Nebraska to qualify a 285? I am losing hope that Davidson can do it and no way Andrews can imo.

I never said he was dominating the match or close to dominating the match. The match changed big time after Amos got injured however.
-
It affected the outcome in a huge way. Amos could hardly move the last half of the match.
-
Injury completely changed the match if we are being honest.

Yeah it went over your head as I mentioned previously.
