PSU is 3.5 points from clinching. Either by PSU wins or Mich losses or lack of Mich bonus. We should have the crown by end of 149 at the latest. Maybe at 141 with Bartlett.

Yah, it should be an automatic 1 point team deduction. But, what the hell do I know.
They both threw their headgear there but I think if you just toss it aside or to a coach they don't ding you, I think it's when you slam it down.
Either way it's a stupid rule, guys get emotional and it's to be expected. It should only be a team point if you throw it at somebody.

2nd softest.
Tom yelling at the refs for a review down 18-6 And 3 other coaches not even involved during MMs destruction of Caliendo.
Was wondering the same thing. That used to be a team point deduction.
Griffith forfeits championship to Ruth. Franek forfeits 3rd to Robb.
Shaver showing Ragusin the auditorium lights over and over.... that was a good 'ole fashion buut-whooping. Ragusin came out thinking he was going to king-kong Shaver above the waist and proceeded to put himself in danger over, and over again. Ragusin wrestled very arrogantly there and paid the price (why he assumed he could do whatever he wanted up top when he doesn't know Shaver that well is a bit of a mystery imho). Terrible match-prep, strategy and tactics.
Guys get away with doing that "inadvertently" all the time, but that was as deliberate as it gets. Refs give it a pass, I think, if they were on the verge of bringing them back into center anyway.
Davis’ final takedown is my favorite moment in the tourney so far 💪
I appreciate the Nicky Cruiseliner reference. Perfect !!!!!!! This will replace my “Nicky Transfer” moniker!
Beau is an incredible defensive wrestler - Mendez had him dead to rights twice there in first and Beau defended them late twice.
Shades of Stoll throwing his ankle bands at Kasper after that headlock at nationals.
That's a shame, you can't wrestle every match close and not expect to lose now and then.
Beau did not deserve to win. Literally not one offensive attempt
Mendez earned that one. Bartlett's hips are nuts.
Don't hate it, Mendez deserved that win 100%. Good scrambling.
Bartlett and Mendez
Not much action but Mendez suprises Beau with a clean double, which Barlett somehow fought off. Barlett also fights off another shot on the edge with a whizzer.
Mendez takes down to start the second. Beau with a few mat returns but lets him go with :35 RT. Still not a lot of action from Beau.
Beau out from bottom in the third, holds :19 RT. Beau hasn't shot yet.
Beautiful D by Beau to fend off a deep shot with a whizzer, but Mendez keeps at it and gets the TD with under ten seconds. First loss for Beau.

Good match. Mendez earned it. I think it’s basically a tossup whenever those two take the mat.
well Beau finally got burned by not getting points early!
Yep. You wrestle unaggressively you are going to eventually get caught.
Looked to me like when the ref said, "Fingers, guys", Beau let go and Mendez used it to his advantage.
Eh, we've seen this story before. PSU wrestler loses in B1G final, avenges loss when it really counts two weeks later.

I’m good with the loss now and the undefeated monkey off the back of a wrestler that plays it too close too often. Mendez deserved that one and Beau has something to learn from there. I’ll take Beau in the next one!
Well, that was bound to happen at some point with the way Bartlett wrestles his matches. I'd rather it happen today then in Kansas City.
Take no shots? Win no matches.
Make sure this doesn't happen again in 11 days.

With the Michigan loss at 141, PSU clinched the B10 title.
