2012 Penn State vs 2017 Penn State

[KidNittany]

Two great teams, huge point scores. Probably our two best teams during this run.

125- Megaludis (So) v. Suriano (tF) - this is a super tough call but I'm going with Nico because there's no hard feelings there 3-0
133- Martellotti (So) v. Law (F) - Martellotti would control a decision 6-0
141- Pearsall (J) v. Gulibon (Sr) - Gulibon would get this. Possible bonus 6-3
149- Molinaro (Sr) v. Retherford (J) - Retherford in a dec 6-6
157- Alton (F) v. Nolf (So) - Nolf possible bonus but Dylan was solid this year 6-9
165- Taylor (So) v. Joseph (F) - Taylor bonus 10-9
174- Ruth (So) v. Hall (tF) - would be awesome but I think Ruth would've pulled it out. Call it bias 13-9
184- Wright (J) v. Nickal (So) - Would be an insane match but I'm going with Bo 13-12
197- McIntosh (tF) v. McCutcheon (J) - Going with McIntosh but this would be a very workman like match 16-12
HWT- Wade (Sr) v. Nevills (So) - Nevills gets this 16-15

This would've been a fun match to see. Giving the edge to 2012 as the "best team of recent memory". Penn St and the fans win

165- VJ is exactly the kind of guy to give dt trouble. Great hips and hard to score on. I don't see bonus there. Cool matchups up and down. 184 would be the absolute best to watch.

I think there's a decent chance Nolf would have bonused D. Alton. Alton was excellent, very solid....but Nolf is just next level.

Agreed, CJ strength would pose a problem. Taylor by decision only.
