Wrestling 2023 NCAA Tournament Live Thread: Session III

Seriously, they don’t really have a St Patty’s Day. It’s more of an American tradition. But I sure do like CB&B!

Irish folks are Irish folks every day of the year. St Patty's day is an Irish-American celebration of Irish heritage.

 

[AgSurfer]

I'll be in Cozumel, Mexico for Cinco Dr Mayo. I hear the same thing. Not celebrated like USA.

Hope you hired some armed security guards to go with you!

 

[mcpat]

In the second period, Romero’s entire hand covered Brooks’ entire face at one point. I was amazed nothing was called / warned.

 

[JOESTROSSER]

Bonaccorsi made that first takedown look so easy.

 

[mcruny42]

Nino looking good early on vs Allred

 

[nitlion6]

Hope you hired some armed security guards to go with you!

Unless those guards are Cartel affiliated it won't help.

 

[RandyL]

Well, they don't need a holiday as an excuse to get plastered like we do.

You know the old saying ...

God made the Irish to rule the world.
Then made whiskey so they couldn't.

 

[AgSurfer]

Rooting for Truax too. Cal Poly needs a boost.

yep... ref was saying something - who knows what since he wrestled on the line the entire time. His one shot was simply a stall move - he dove and held on - no attempt to improve

Actually the Cartel should rent out vistor security. It woukd be a massive second income gig.

 

[johnstownsteel]

I think Shane is drunk already.

 

[oldcougar65]

Not like this thing is slow, but I made 2 hot dogs with sauerkraut between Beau's bout and Levi's match and never missed any action.
I have but one hope here. I merely wish that the Nits have their standard NCAA semi-final results. Nothing special, just average. I'll be fine with that.

 

[Ski]

Because the blood on the walls Gable saw when he was recruiting them was not from wrestling each other, it was them running into the wall over and over and missing the door right next to it.

That was literally LOL funny to me!

 

[Conewago]

Went to Ireland once in the early 80s. They don’t make much out of St Patty’s Day at all.

That's because their ancestors didn't have to flee the country in famine ships.

 

[Hotshoe]

Okay, we have to fix this sh&t. Pennsylvania is about sauerkraut, pork, mashed potatoes, mushrooms, sweet corn, chicken and dumplings, cheesesteaks, scrapple and liver pudding, chips, shoe fly pie, pretzels, Tastykakes, and world famous, ring bologna.

Get your Pennsylvania sh&t together.

 

[McScoreley]

I love Robbie Howard so much. He ain't taking PSU slander. He loves the team so much and you can tell how much it's hurting him not being out there.

 

[nitlion6]

He didn't even dive. He back stepped, Aaron stepped forward and Romero knelt down and grabbed the leg Aaron stepped in with.

 

[johnstownsteel]

Hidlay is so difficult to root for. Keep smacking yourself in the face dufus

His brother was a favorite of mine. Such a good dude. This one is somewhat strange. Lol

 

[RandyL]

There was a perfect example in Hidlay vs Bolen.
Bolen is standing out of bounds and Hidlay facing him in bounds.
Bolen circles to his left to come in bounds and Hidlay instantly circles to his left to stand out of bounds.

I would rather have nuclear apocalypse than see Hidlay win a championship.

 

[Psalm 1 guy]

Yianni 8-7 over Murin.

Assad just lost

 

[Conewago]

A lot of refs seem to prefer to say, "Action!" or something instead of calling stalling.

 

[Cali_Nittany]

Yes, just like every day is Mardi Gras in New Orleans ... for the tourists.

Been to Ireland during St Patrick's Day. Had no problem maintaining Lenten diet despite beer goggling the menus. It's almost as if it's an island surrounded by seafood.

Ireland is high on my list.

 

[BOSCO2]

Corned beef & beef? Good idea skipping the cabbage.

We've already lived through Dean Heil x2 NCAA champion and Chris Perry 2x NCAA champion. 4 nuclear apocalypses.

Damn straight. Cabbage, mash, and bangers already on the stove!

 

[Psugo823]

Max mat?

 

[mcruny42]

Wow Braunagel almost got the TD...that was close

Don’t forget scrapple!

 

[Hotshoe]

Don’t forget scrapple!

It was in there! Amazing with a bit of butter and PA maple syrup.

Kale feels more Irish than cabbage. Colcannon, even without bacon or bangers, is amazing. Get the realest buttermilk you can find. Make sure there's a well in the middle of the taters and kale, and make sure it SWIMS in butter.

 

[danoftw]

Hope you hired some armed security guards to go with you!

Nah, it’s safer than Iowa

 

[mcruny42]

Does Truax losing put him in Deans path?

Did you just make a funny? lol.

 

[JOESTROSSER]

I get this wrong every year. Is there another rd of consis this afternoon or just more tonight?

 

[Foreverinbluejeans57]

Don’t mind seeing Truax drop that one… needs to have that fire burning to move to State College

 

[Hotshoe]

Bonaccorsi, beast!

 

[Brian LB-U]

Assad just lost

Any chance Minnesota passes Iowa in the team standings?

 

[El-Jefe]

Does Truax losing put him in Deans path?

Yes, but not until after Dean makes the podium.

Would be consi quarters, loser goes to 7th/8th match.

 

[RB-Old]

So dumb of Allred to try and ride him out

 

[Maddog]

One more round this afternoon to set up blood round matchups tonight
