WE ARE!

Are you going to start a thread for Semi's or stay with this one?

 

[creamery freak]

Don't worry once Davis breaks through DeAugustino's hair / beard defense, he'll be in cruise control again.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Michigan's style is pretty gross.

 

[sneedram55]

So I guess BTN+ isn't showing the semis?

 

[wrestlinPSU]

So I guess BTN+ isn't showing the semis?

I can’t find it either

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

So I guess BTN+ isn't showing the semis?

I thought they were, but the stream kept failing, so I went to BTN.

 

[GantryZ]

Ooops, posted in the other thread before I saw there. Nope, I'm only seeing options for consolations and I went into each of them to be sure.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Deaugstino did nothing all match, but Braeden didn't do enough to highlight that.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Pretty close to the 1 second advantage. Not sure.

 

[El-Jefe]

Cael doesn’t pop into your cubicle on Monday mornings to make sure you’re working on your TPS Reports.

“Grading” our student athletes is very tacky.
Let’s please stop the practice.

 

[NittanyChris]

Ballsy call to go down there having to beat five seconds and he might have done it.

 

[js8793]

Pretty close to the 1 second advantage. Not sure.

they did the same thing to DeAugustino. Would have been BS to change that.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

WOW! BRAEDEN!

 

[NittanyChris]

Wow!!! Ice water in his veins!!!

 

[sneedram55]

Big man Davis!!!!

 

[LDandy]

Davis might look like he's 12 years old but he's got that DOG in him.

 

[psujeepman1]

Hell yeah Davis!!!

 

[pish69]

Baby Face Killer!!

 

[McScoreley]

That was so gutsy .... had a bad feeling after MDA got out in 5 seconds. Kid is just ice cold

 

[johnstownsteel]

It may be time for us to stop writing Davis off as a backup in the future. Wow!

 

[Cali_Nittany]

Ballsy call to go down there having to beat five seconds and he might have done it.

 

[mvattivo]

Such a great win and day for Braeden!

 

[1AA]

Davis with some kinda patience. Nice work young man

 

[PSUcup1]

That’s stalling. Not a stalemate. Jesus

 

[PSUcup1]

Ragusin locked hands twice

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

BS call to give the TD and then call a "stalemate" while Ragusin is clearly riding the leg??? Didn't even start a count while Ragusin rode leg for a good 10 seconds - then calls stalemate. Complete bs.

 

[El-Jefe]

 

[mhlarch]

How about a stall call on Ragusin!

That fat ref is not up to the task

 

[5q]

Come Aaron Try a different attack

 

[McScoreley]

Almost ... ugh

 

[1AA]

Guess that wasn't worth a brick?

 

[RealMicah]

So close at a last second takedown

 

[PSUcup1]

How about a stall call on Ragusin!

He got warned. Nagao did nothing either.

 

[Pitchfork Rebel]

Why didn't Nagao have that urgency in the first period?

 

[McScoreley]

Guess that wasn't worth a brick?

No - was very obvious time was up.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

That Ref is awful - had no intention of calling a TD at end. Walking around like - nothing to see here. I think Nagou may have had TD as Ragusin appeared to have a hand down but no replay.

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Guess that wasn't worth a brick?

The TD looked late to me. Nageo might've had Ragusin wrapped up before 0:00 but not down. At least that's how I saw it.

 

[Cali_Nittany]

Silver lining, a lot closer than the dual match

 

[McScoreley]

Silver lining, a lot closer than the dual match

That one went to SV? lol

EDIT: I think I missed obvious sarcasm, my bad

 

[LDandy]

behind.

Why didn't Nagao have that urgency in the first period?

It seems like he has to give up a takedown before he starts wrestling loose. It would be great if they could get him to fire off the whistle.
