Good job Bo but that needed to be a major.
Man he’s had some head scratching strategies this tournament

Dumb as it sounds, maybe there is a little bit of a flu bug going through the team. Nickal isn't the only PSU wrestler who doesn't look 100% on top of his game.
Guys relax. We can win this tonight and tomorrow night. Verily. And we can get 2 more wins yet this afternoon.
Agree with both these posts. Thought Nickal could have played catch and release instead of riding so much. Then he looked totally gassed the last minute of the match. Was in position for an easy reversal but didn't even try for it - just kept hanging on the ankle. Weird.
Michigan's Abounader onto the semis and secures his first AA honor.

It looked to me like he and Dean had a pretty hard head collision at one point. Don't know if it dazed Bo but I'm sure it pissed him off.
Yes, did you notice that Dean got a little extra taste of mat at the end of the match?
