Cool news from Buckeyeland - wrestle offs

[pish69]

Jordan vs Romero..

neither of these 2 show me much. Jordan bigger, Romero presses action but has nothing but a double. Jordan hasn’t taken a shot yet. He’s definitely not Bo or Micah offensively

1-1 after 2. Jordan already has a stall point against him. He doing nothing

going to overtime. Snooze fest. At least Romero shoots.

going into double OT. Romero has about 20 shots to 0.

and Jordan win as he rides out Romero and Romero can’t hold him down.

Boring as hell..I’m out can’t watch more of this boring crap

Makes me really appreciate what we have going on

This thread is tailor-made for an ice-cold dousing of unrealistic expectations by Lemonpie

@LemonPie - your thoughts good man?

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

I think The Bull versus Kharchla will be interesting. Whenever that happens.

I don't remember Bo ever taking a shot on Mark until it was desperation time.

from what I saw, Karchla should take the redshirt. Smith is more than fine and give Karchla time. get a little stronger. I think he’d get horsed by a Cenzo or Bull.

Not if Kharchla’s struggling with Ethan Smith

Mark Hall a different beast than Kaleb Romero. Bo would have torched a guy like Romero

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Yeah, that's fair. Honestly, underwhelmed by all except Sasso.

kind of agree..maybe Decatur but I dont think the guy he wrestled much of a measuring stick

 

[pish69]

I can understand room familiarity may play a part in some of these boring matches ..but still.

Hoffman loses 5-4. Ugly. Who is Zach Steiner???

[pish69]

I couldn’t resist and watched till the end. Moore with a takedown clinic and the tech. In early 3rd

 

[Str8DBLz]

Oh my god did anyone stay awake? Those were some very boring matches!

 

[pawrestlersintn]

Oof. Two time Ohio state champ, four time qualifier. RS sophomore.

 

[pish69]

Oh my god did anyone stay awake?

Barely but I have the itch for some good ole college folk style so I forced myself to watch the whole thing

 

[Str8DBLz]

I dozed off 3 times. Only match that really kept me awake was Sasso's

Pletcher winning 6-3

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Have you noticed Pletch 5 doesn’t come here to attempt to dunk on us since Elevatorapocalypse?

I assume Gavin would be more comfortable at 197.

 

[El-Jefe]

I assume Gavin would be more comfortable at 197.

He went something like 25-3 last year at 184. This is probably just one of those goofy room losses that happen occasionally in wrestle-offs..

A few years ago Kenny Courts lost his wrestle-off to some dude who was never heard from again.

Was the dude named “Ice Cream”?

Logan Stieber lost a wrestle-off to somebody the same year he lost to Zain and went out and did some pretty special stuff. Singletary lost last year's wrestle-off and that turn out to be a fluke as well. Gavin will be just fine. Ohio State will be good....again. I would say they are the favorite to finish a much closer 3rd than folks realize.

While I somewhat agree...…..I still remember Berge 3.....Verk 2. No heart palpitations there either. I think they are both pretty good though.....just sayin'

you have a much more positive outlook then I do. If that was PSU and they wrestled like that, I’d have a sick pit in my stomach and I can’t even imagine what Lemon Pie would do!

The more obvious Courts joke would be" the dude was named "Top Position."

But like Ice Cream, everybody has heard of Top Position.

You sure about this? I don't recall this happening, maybe you're thinking of a hurt Hunter Stieber?

The announcers of the Wrestle-offs tonight mentioned it during the broadcast on FLO. They definitely said Logan lost a wrestle-off......mentioned the name of the guy he lost to.....a name I forgot almost immediately....sorry. They mentioned that Logan went on to be something like 40-1 and won the NC that year. Don't think Hunter ever won a NC

3rd will be much closer to second than second will be to first.

Would you mind posting the scores from the last couple of PSU wrestle offs? Can’t seem to remember.

You might as well be asking for Nuclear Launch Codes

We don’t have public wrestle offs thankfully.

I like the way we do it, everyone has their hopes up real high coming into the season, Flo does 50 articles of how so and so team can beat PSU, then PSU takes the mat for first dual and fans of other teams put their head in their hands and realizes “welp, maybe next year”

 

[RoarLions1]

Watched every match. Had the time, and now that wrestling season is here, I wanted that first early dose.

I would hesitate judging one bit about any of the action. Familiarity is huge.

I did not watch the entire wrestle-off, but I did hear the announcers mention, at one point during the broadcast, that Ian Paddock beat Hunter Stieber in a wrestle off and Hunter went on to have only 1 loss during the season. (BTW this happened in 2013 where Hunter was 36-1 and finished 3rd at NCAA). I did not hear any mention of Logan losing a wrestle-off, but they may have said it. I watched only about 75% of the broadcast.

 

[jpsolo]

2014 141: Stieber pinned Marandino 1:58

2013 Moving up a weight class to 141 pounds, redshirt junior and No. 1 ranked Logan Stieber pinned Jarrod Boone, a junior, in 2:56.

2012 133 – Logan Stieber pins Drew Stone, 1:20

2011 133 – Logan Stieber Tech Fall Mike Manuche, 16-1 (1:40)

2010 125 Logan Stieber win by tech fall Josh Whitt, 18-2

As if last night were anything other than a dog and pony show.

Ohio State's first competition is the MSU Open. Does anyone seriously think last night's 157 and 184 winners will be the starters after that tourney?

I could very well have mis-heard.....my concentration was in direct proportion to the excitement on the mat

Boom! What you’d expect from him

Familiarity or not, Hoffman’s loss is not a good sign. 184 too light for him?

I don't. Not that 2019-20 is a toss away year for the Buckeyes, as they have, imo, much more potential than the ranker's are showing. While injuries (hate to say it) are a great neutralizer, jumping the firepower of PSU and Iowa this year is not likely. They're young, so anything is possible ... it's just where I see them, as better off in the long run RS'ing their 157 and 184 pounder.
