Lol, it's in the rule book, not a judgement call. He was on the leg for a 5 count.
Dude may be his own biggest fan, but he’s a stud. Or should I say, Ferrari’s good. Just ask him.
Ok thanks........in my excitement I didn't think of that being the case.
What choice did he have, Ferrari was armed with finger pistols.
"Beard, sigh. Can’t wait until these kids get the experience they need. "
He doesn't get experienced quick, you never know, AB @ 197 sometime in next couple years.

Kerk shoots, Gable counters, then seems content to put a parallel ride on. Kerk doesn't appear close to escaping.
But Kerk gets hit with the stall warning.

Kerk showing brass balls. Great effort here by him. Let’s go get 3rd
Kerk put up a game fight but needs to bulk up to compete with Steveson (if that's even possible, LOL). Kerk is just as quick, but Steveson is so powerful there was little Kerk could do. Nice to see him get a TD at the end anyway. Has anyone else gotten a TD against Steveson (either in this tourney or all year, really)?
Kerk gets the TD. Has anyone else taken down Steveson this year?
Kerk gets to a leg, finally, but Gable stuffs it and goes behind. Then lets him up and gets a double. Now releases again, posed for a late TD for the major, but Kerk gets to the leg and quickly converts, which will keep this to a decision. 9-4. Better looking than at the B1Gs but still tentative.
Kerk will win next season. BOOK IT!!!
Cassiopi won his match, so will be Gable's next meal in a few hours. But that probably kills any realistic shot at anyone other than Iowa winning this thing.
Most impressive PSU wrestler for me so far today is Greg Kerkvliet. Which says just how amazing Steveson is.
I think so too. With 15-20 extra pounds and another year in the room, he's going to be very, very hard to beat.
I think Kerks neutral game may have prompted GS to ride him in the first. Who else has he rode like that this year. Parris maybe?
GS didn't want to play catch and release like he does with others.
Almost like making weight 2 days straight was an issue? Like you say, he had almost nothing right from the start; just very flat.
Talk about Steveson going MMA, but if he doesn‘t, I don’t see how he can be anything But a strong favorite next year.
I try to be a realist.
Yeah, the ride with no real attempt to turn was a real sign of respect towards Kerk.
That's what I thought too. He knows Kerk isn't 100% and he didn't want to mess with him any more than he had to on his feet. A little more weight and a chance to get some conditioning in and Kerk will be much tougher.

Beard fresh is about as good on his feet as any of them, and might beat ayone, and certainly has improved his conditioning, but he still has the worst stamina of any of the good 197ers, and its not close.
Just not enough stamina for a grueling tournament.
He should lift, lift, and run, run, run, run.
Doggone.

He did--he covered Gable vs. Parris extensively--just ask @Tom McAndrew .
Feature article about GS in Minneapolis paper this week. I think he wants to be rich and goes pro next year. I sure hope so.
