Apparently Gomez was disqualified for the move and lost the match. It was tied 1-1 at the time. Will be able to wrestle for 9th. Wow.

I don't think that was DQ worthy, really. Certainly something you can do in FS, maybe a slam in folk?
Somebody was having a fit. I didn't have JB on, so it's weird with no commentary.
Should he have been DQ’d? How will this affect Gomez as far as nationals? I assume he gets an at large no matter what?
Taylor LaMont into Transfer Portal
Man, it looks like Bono does his best recruiting out of the portal. Let's see if he can hang on to Chittum.

Probably harsh, but feel like Van Ness left a half a point out there.
Well I meant I'd do it to keep him healthier. He looked bad after 1st match.
That kid was begging to get cradled. Not sure why SVN didn't attempt it on one of those releases.
I agree. 2.5 mins of RT in first… no clean break on one of the escapes he wanted to give didn’t net another TD, no TD after he let him up late in 2nd and 3rd.
I have never figured out the complexity of shortening football and baseball games. It used to take less than 3 hours to play an NFL game, then they double the amount of commercials time and could not figure out why it then took longer. So they wrote rules to reduce the number of plays and shortened the time to play a game. Then then started adding more commercials.
Baseball, same thing. It used to be hustle in hustle out. 90 seconds, 3 commercials. Then they started adding commercials to the time between innings. Now we have about 5 minutes between innings for commercials, so we have to speed up play. As soon as they get enough time shaved off the average game time we will go to 6 then 7 minutes between innings and have the same conversation.

165: 4 Facundo vs 11 South
South shoots but Alex defends. Eye poke on South. Alex shoots but nothing. Wasn’t fully committed to it. Nice duck by Alex but can’t catch a leg. Shot by Alex and a scramble that Alex finishes nicely. 2-0 after one. 0:18 riding time.
Alex on bottom. Out in 12 seconds. 3-0. Alex half shot from distance. Again not fully committed to it. South wants to tie up. 3-0 after two.
South on bottom. Out after 35 secs. Earned it; Facundo didn’t let him up. 3-1. South with a few half shots. Ends 3-1 Alex.

He's just not a bonus getter at this point.
I wasn't listening closely, but I don't think Beyers indicated it was an illegal slam. But I thought the rule was if you injure an opponent with an illegal move and they can't continue, you are DQed.
Never even tried to score again after the fire takedown. Just happy to sit on a 3-1 win. Ughhhhhhhh
Mad respect for him making the starting linup of the best wrestling team in the World.
Relax, we’re training through B1Gs this year.
I thought that was the "knock" on Alex is that he wasn't a big scorer.
It's a valid point though. I think we have grown accustomed to a style that some of our guys don't adhere to.
I know I'm so happy he won. But I love watching good exciting wrestling. There wasn't much exciting about that match. Maybe the Ughhhh was because it was a boring match.
Not even remotely the point.
So is there just a 30 minute break after the upcoming 285 matches or do they roll right into more consys? Track doesn't have anything listed yet.
The list of kids wrestling in this round alongside our young guys used to be a Who's Who of wrestling. I'm watching Amos/Hoffman square of in the first round of consis. Earlier had Lamont/Teske. Gomez (albeit not at his best) was in this round. What I'm getting at is this tournament is no joke! Probably the hardest domestic tournament we have, and our guys are picking up wins and people are complaining that they didn't win by enough or entertain them enough... survive and advance. And spoiler alert, I betcha a large trophy will end up on the flight back to Happy Valley regardless if they entertained us enough or not.
