your probably right. It would take an epic collapse from OSU with an epic round for us.
Tis what it tis
Geez - are you like the football fans who give up after the first drive of the 1st Q? I'm no koolaid drinker, but we are still firmly in this. Our studs knocked out earlier than expected need to kick butt in the wrestlebacks, win at least 3 finals, and cheer on Pfarr, Brooks and Clark

No. We've had bad rounds before. Pick it up tomorrow and turn things around
The reality is OSU deserves to win this tournament not because Nick is injured but they wrestled a lot better than any other team.
It's not over. Don't know about the rest of you but I'm planning on celebrating another PSU national championship in a couple of weeks...

Here is the deal. Bo needs to attack more and stick with basics and he will beat Martin every time like he has...Martin was more aggressive with his shots....
Yup. They came to wrestle. We did too but not nearly enough to get the job done. That will be corrected...
It's more of a credit to OSU than an indictment of our boys. However, you can't deny we looked bad. Last year's NCAA finals bad.
Yea, it is over but you gotta take into consideration...we literally went in with 8 wrestlers (125 & 133 were dead from jump)...add in JG's performance and we are where we should be...solid performances minus JG's first match and Bo's semi effort.
Who gives a crap about the Big Ten title? I sure as heck don't. The only title that matters for individuals and teams starts in 12 days. PSU on top on 3/18.
The strange part about that is that in the dual meet Bo wrestled a very controlled, smart match. It looked like he had gameplanned effectively for Martin and he beat him by 6 and stayed out of dangerous positions. Total opposite tonight. Not sure why, but when he gets frustrated he gets really heavy feet and starts to do this arm dangle thing and his head hands defense disappears. Not the most tactically prurient response to giving up a takedown. NCAA's at 84 are going to be awesome.
A Hail Mary chance, which could occur, but realistically, only that. Without a doubt the most disappointing tournament of the Cael era at Penn State. Injuries at 125 and 133 dictated that everyone perform at their highest level and it just didn't happen. Hopefully Suriano's ankle gets a lot better in the next week or so and he can compete. Also, hopefully, the other guys pick up their game. Not going to Scuffle may not have been good. We know this is a great dual meet team, but we had a limited feel for what kind of tournament team it was. PSU could be sitting in third by the end of the night.
Maybe I'm a homer butvthat right there says 8-0 to me...
I now know why Spyker is so reviled on this board and why PSU fans get bad rep - even with Nick wrestling this weekend and assuming he's in finals against Gilman - OSU still has finals advantage 6 to 4. Give OSU credit they wrestled their butts off and beat us fair and square. To top it all off the same guy thats been touting Jimmy as potential NCAA finalist for past two weeks throws him and the 4th most dominant wrestler in college this year under the bus. Total D-Bag!

You're right. We haven't earned this, they have. We're sloppy, slow, and somewhat disinterested or something. Nick, Jimmy, and Matt make zero sense. You either wrestle to win, or get off the mat. I'd rather have Bo lose being reckless, than what the above 3 did. I just cannot explain Jimmy. This isn't about Nationals and all will be fine, something is messed up. It makes no sense wrestling not to lose.
i see a worst case 6-2. can't count on anything from Jimmy
