2017 NCAAs Session 4 Thread

Boy this Pfarr v. Moore match is a great match....now that's the way a wrestling match to make it to the finals should be wrestled!!! Pfarr wins it 13-9 with both wrestlers just letting it all hang out.....a true brawl. Pfarr looks like he got punched below his eye - Moore bleeding....lots of scoring, both wrestlers wrestled and never gave up. A ton of scoring in the 3rd. Great match....
Outstanding. 13-9 at 197! Love it.
 
Nevills vs. Kroells (Minny) Consolation R5

Per 1
Nevills with a TD at 1:51, 2-0. Nevills riding to the right side. Kroells up to his feet, taken back down. Up again, and out at 1:05, 2-1. OOB. Nevills in on a single, has it elevated, no longer elevated, they scramble, and Kroells breaks the leg hold and gets the TD, 2-3 with about 12 sec left. End. RT at 28 sec for Nevills

Per 2
Kroells takes down. Kroells and out in 7 sec, 2-4. RT at 35 sec. Nevills in on a single, Kroells tries to get out, but Nevills gets him to the mat before they go OOB. Challenge by Minny. Video review. Seems to be a question as to whether Kroells touched off the mat before the TD was awarded. Call stands, so it's 4-4. 1:07 left. Nevills on right side, Kroells up, taken back down, and RT over 1 min. Up again, and taken back down is Kroells. OOB at 25 sec. Announcer just calls Nevills a freshman. Dumb. Kroells works up slowly, taken back down. End. RT at 1:46 for Nevills

Per 3
Nevills takes down. Nevills to his base, and up, and out at 1:46, to lead 5-4. Krells in on a low single, Nevills dives over for the ankle, they scramble, and a stalemate at 55 sec. Kroells again in on a low single, Nevills grabs an ankle, they scramble, not going anywhere, ref lets them wrestle out. With RT, it's a 6-5 with by Nevills

Way to go Nick Nevills!
 
Two questions as a wrestling novice:

1) How the heck did we lose at Big Tens
2) What is the deal with the "Cael can't coach" routine? Did somebody really throw that out there?

It's an HR thing. Because Cael recruits so well, he doesn't need to coach to win championships.
 
3 Team race? PSU is in 1st Place by more than 30 points - you have an interesting definition of a "3 team race". This is a 1 team race for first and a 2 team race for second.
Only Okie State (146 max possible) and tOSU (136.5 max possible) have a mathematical chance, but the probability of PSU (currently 121 with 5 finalists and Nevills still alive in consis) winning is high. Maybe someone else feels like crunching the numbers.
 
Freestyle vs Folk

Snyder looks gassed after every match that goes distance vs college kids

Looks more fresh after his freestyle bouts
Against the worlds best

A show for the Ages, what a team effort, everybody came to the party big time
Great way to put it... Jschrantz. 5 finalists in a row.... a show certainly for the ages. With 2 pins in a National Semi-Final and a major. Penn State is on another level.
