Here's a too funny tweet string. Check out the ZarZar guy's analysis on what we lose:
This may be one of my favorite threads ever.
Went to bed thinking last night was a dream but woke to know that it is history!
What a night!

What a night!
I get Streibler, he's paid to be a homer, but that ZarZar guy..."I've been in a wrestling room, i know what it's like" oh, well then by all means, sir. Clearly penn State has zero veteran leadership in the room next year...
IMar shook hands, did it while he was undoing his anklets. Bent over and kinda half-assed but I think he was in the depths of humiliation at that pt.
Cracks me up Martinez's wimpy leg kicks whilst he's getting pinned. Also, when the camera pans to the mat-level angle in the pinning combo where u can see the crowd, there's a big dude on the far right side jumping up and down going apesh!t, wearing PSU gear. Love it!
Also, not is this vid but there's another shot of David Taylor jumping up and down going wild. Love that too
Not specifically tweets, but these two Flo videos are great. PSU wrestlers and coaches reacting to the IMar pin and Bo's win:

I saw it. Joseph had his hand extended, and as Martinez was taking off his bands he shook his hand.
Oh no, this will get Spyker re-fired up about Edmund.

I love that tweet from Boroughs. Just outstanding.
Hey...what are all those other guys doing in our team pic?!?!
Love these!
Jason and Mark literally celebrated 10x harder for their teammates than they did for their own National titles - what a team!

On Saturday night at the Scott Trade Center in St. Louis, MO the Nittany Lions [did] not just roar, they sent a crystal clear message to the rest of the teams in DI.
That message was, catch us if you can.
Think about this. They had six All-American's which is not unheard of. They had five national champions, again it has been done. But here is what makes the rest of the schools nervous, they return 138 points next year and that does not even consider the fact that super freshman Nick Suriano did not even compete.

Kevin Dresser: If you want to be the best, and you're not wearing a blue singlet, time to get to work.
This thread is awesome! Thanks to everybody for posting these tweets and videos.
Kevin Dresser was great during last night's coverage. He opined up front Cenzo could beat IMart and he was right. "I've been watching him all year and he can win this." Very complementary of Cael and our guys.
Vincenzo Joseph seems to have cat-like balance and control that is on another level.
His body awareness and his feel for leverage and control are serving him very well. He has had some tricky moves that needed very good control and hip strength to pull off.
Nolf has incredible awareness too. Guessing that the coaches are helping to grow and intensify some of these natural abilities, to help these guys make split second decisions, that can help them make very good adjustments amid some wild moves and scrambles.
Cenzo tried the double-overhook inside trip in the first period as well -- just couldn't step all the way in to get the trip.
If Cael could coach, I'd say Cenzo was well prepared for Martinez's underhook.
Yah, if only Cael could coach.
Looked like I-Mar was trying to also roll back and flip Cenzo off of him as they landed. Cenzo was well up in the air, with Martinez trying to continue his momentum to throw Joseph off the top.
But Cenzo stuck in on I-Mar like a magnet, landing with pressure on the shoulders and iirc, control of at least one arm. Would very much like to see a Flo video clip (or other) from the opposite angle showing the pin, if it exists.
Also looked like I-Mar may have been a bit gassed when he took his time getting set at the top position before the restart. As such, it didn't seem like Martinez had much fight left, when he was taken to his back. Could also be the wind was knocked out and he had Cenzo pressing heavily on his chest and shoulders with his body.
A stunning stick by Vincenzo Joseph.
