Wrestling 2023 NCAA Tournament Live Thread

[RealMicah]

These post match reactions by these incredible athletes are outstanding. Such raw emotions. Love it. All these guys are awesome. PSU wrestlers are more awesome, but all these competitors are fantastic.

All these wrestlers are showing a lot of class. Love to see it.

 

[NittanyChris]

Here we goooo!!!

RBY finish strong!!!

WE ARE!!!

 

[psualt]

These finals show great wrestlers and a lot of good young men. Happy for all these guys.

 

[WIP2001]

I love these guys, but man it's so much religion and it's just not for me. As long as they're good dudes though.

Brooks has zero personality. I don’t even know why they interview him. Just put up whatever bible verse he’d want to push then move on. I’ve never heard him speak an original thought… it’s been 4 years dude. Think of something interesting.

We type this at the same time?

I'm a Christian and I wish I could feel like he does. I mean, even Mother Teresa had doubts about her faith...

Lol yep

 

[JOESTROSSER]

What's he supposed to do? Parris is on another planet this year. Kerk almost got him in the first but once Parris put his weight on him he took all the life out of him.

Don't you know wrestling an undefeated #1 seed is easy peasy? LOL, not!

 

[JOESTROSSER]

RBY time baby!

 

[js8793]

great interview from Glory. It's a shame he's always been chasing Spencer and made me nervous and I was never able to appreciate him fully. Exactly the kind of guy I love watching. Well deserved Pat.

 

[PD4thespawn]

That was pretty classless from AB. Really out of character. Strange.

He probably had an earlier discussion a bout religion and it just came out.

That you find his personality, or more precisely faith, disagreeable doesn't mean it's absent.

They interview him because he just joined a pretty elite club.

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Choosing bottom was dumb but it wouldn’t have mattered. Greg has to get back in the lab.

Parris has shown he is prepared for Kerk's snatch single, which was so effective last season. Kerk needs a Plan B.

 

[Conewago]

Aaron may have doubts.

We never know what goes on exactly in another person's heart.

Plus it's possible to be happy, or at least peaceful, even in difficult moments.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

I'm baffled how Kerk gave up a Fireman's Carry dump to Parris AGAIN. What makes it even more inexplicable is the near identical-ness of how they've occurred..... Kerk shoots, gets a leg... Parris gets into a head down defensive position with Kerk squarely on top of him..... Parris works his head under Kerk's right-arm...... dumps him. You would think Kerk could feel it coming - it's only like the 4th or 5th time it's happened this year.

Like someone else (El-Jefe?) said, I think these guys should stop harping on this crap.

 

[PSUcup1]

Is it me or do all our guys, for years, pull their singlet legs down 5Xs as other guys

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Damn Vito is fast.

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Damn, Vito is long.

 

[Pitchfork Rebel]

What the hell am I watching?

 

[JOESTROSSER]

Ugh, Arujau is so quick

 

[Conewago]

I did not know Vito Arujau was that fast from neutral.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

Wow, Vito out-quicking RBY.

 

[js8793]

you watch vito do stuff like that and wonder how he ever loses. making RBY look slow

 

[zzs006]

Uh oh. Come on RBY. Vito has been quicker which I’ve never seen

 

[Conewago]

What the hell am I watching?

Unfortunately, Cornell has a legacy of giving annoying anticlimatic ends to Penn State championship seasons.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Vito is game man. Damn.

 

[BoHunter0210]

Vito is looking very good

 

[zzs006]

Damn. Did not expect this

 

[okinburg1]

I'm afraid RBY is going down. Hope I'm wrong

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Wow, RBY getting worked; down 8-2. Gonna need to get real busy.

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

I don’t think this is all that shocking. How comprehensive it is I never would’ve guessed but Vito has always been this good and this fast.

 

[Conewago]

Arujau, up 8-2, is now going to stall aggressively and obnoxiously.

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

RBY is great and has given everything for the school but the motivation hasn’t seemed to be there at times this year and you can’t just turn it on against a guy as good as Vito

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Damn. Super bummed about that.

 

[dsites52]

I thought you had one more reverse jinx in ya.

 

[js8793]

that was unreal

 

[Conewago]

At least Koll doesn't coach Cornell anymore. That placates me a bit. I really hated Koll.

 

[PAHURDLER]

Vito was great tonight. Sucks for RBY but it happens.

 

[okinburg1]

Down goes RBY, 10-4. Vito is quicker than RBY, never thought I'd ever post that, and it wasn't even close
