Biggest surprise is that many of our worst football posters have sat this one out ... so far.
Biggest PSU Surprise at B1G
- Thread starter SJP80
- Start date
They’re training through this weekend to prepare for NCAAs.
Biggest surprise so far is a lack of offense from BB, SVN, and JB. That’s worrisome when they take very little shots in over 21 minutes… and that’s why they lost to one TD opponents.
Next, in the premier wrestling conference, why are the officials allowing guys to wrestle on the fringe? It’s terrible and detrimental to the sport. Some guys immediately run to the edge. Very few stalls called. That’s definitely a strategy against PSU.

I agree on all of your points. Very disappointed with the lack of aggressiveness from BB, SVN, and JB. I wonder if the coaches suggested this strategy to those three? Before you laugh at me.....did you notice how much bigger BB and SVN's opponents looked? Shaye's opponent was very tall with long arms. SVN made some shots he couldn't finish, but seemed extra careful. And JB's Michigan opponent was strong and athletic and appears to be a savvy counter wrestler. I still prefer more typical aggressive PSU style.
The refs have been horrible with the lack of obvious stall calls. Any wrestler immediately taking steps back.....or continually backing to the edge should get called and called quickly!
My biggest surprise so far is when we were leaving session 1 I saw Jacob Warner but not his mom.
The edge wrestling is terrible. Refs don't have the b__ls to call it early. Anyone can make call with 20 seconds left.
I was not totally surprised about Beau and Barr not looking to score more . Beau loves to counter and normally doesn't have big issue when under. V was long and he stayed out of scrambles.He dictated the match. Beau is Beau.
Barr has had trouble scoring on good Big Guys this year. I commented a while back that he needs to develop a double leg, which is the go to shit when you are shorter(ie Matt Brown)
Van Ness surprised me that he wasn't able to get to leg more often. Hopefully he learned from his head to head. That match might happen again.
I was surprised when Kasak stuck Taylor. He (Taylor) looked really good going in and I was concerned about the matchup. Kasak just owned him. He has incredible feel for the sport. Cannon will be another tall order.
She saw you though.... and walked in another direction. 🤣
Yes, you can do that. I feel like changing mine, too. LL winning B1Gs looks very likely at this point, so I'm switching to Greg beating Gable.
