Hmm. They both looked really good Friday night. Hopefully, just precaution and nothing big.
Wrestling Dual Thread: Penn State vs. Indiana
- Thread starter CSauertiegPSU
- Start date
I agree, actually JB didn’t actually give a reason for RBY but then he said Nick was “also” feeling under the weather, as in along with RBY, but I could be making a correlation that doesn’t exist.
Angel Rivera didn't wear glasses in the past, did he?

125 Hildebrandt vs #25 Moran
no action thru a minute. Some collar ties; some hand fighting. Mostly facing each other with space. Moran shoots with 1:20 to go; no dice. Quick stalemate. Hildebrandt with a deep single to a LONG scramble that Hildebrandt ultimately finishes with 0:20 to go. 2-0 after one. About 20 secs RT.
Moran chooses bottom to start 2nd. 5 second reversal. 2-2. Escape 10 secs later. 3-2 good guys (despite what screen says). Collar ties. Not a lot of action. Period ends 3-2 good guys with 15 secs RT.
Hildebrandt chooses bottom. Standing switch to behind him to a reversal. Maybe 12 secs ish. 5-2 good guys. 1:38 to go. Checking clock or video. Was close to escape and TD. might be checking that. Long break. Stays 5-2. Hildebrandt riding. Moran got to feet but Hildebrandt gets mat return and then double boots. Moran flattened out. Hildebrandt riding hard. Very physical. Finishes with Hildebrandt on top. 6-2 final with RT.

Why can't B1G keep up with scoring? And, you would think that the best wrestling conference in the country would be able to figure out how to put riding time on the screen.
Oh, and get off my lawn.

Are Shunk and Meredith the only real options at 133 and 141? Sounds like there is a lack of depth at both those weights. Backups at lower weights going to higher weights rarely bodes well.
133 Shunk vs #19 Hudkins
Hudkins with front headlock; tries for near side cradle but settles for early TD. Hudkins riding, then gets himself in trouble and Shunk ultimately gets escape when Hudkins has to bail to avoid going to his back. 2-1 now. Hudkins gets second TD with 1:05 to go. Shunk to his feet and out 20 secs later. 4-2 bad guys. Hudkins another TD with about 15 secs to go. 6-2 bad guys after one with 1:11 RT.
Hudkins chooses bottom. Roll and quick reversal. 8-2 bad guys. Hudkins gets turk and cross face. Turns Shunk. Shunk on his back for quite awhile but manages to get back to his stomach. 12-3 now. Hukins turns him again for 4 more but then Shunk gets to his feet and out. Period ends with Shunk trying for single leg. 16-3 after two.
Shunk starts 3rd on bottom. Hudkins gets a short turn and that does it. TF for Hudkins.
5-3 Idaho
after two matches

Probably because Shunk going up from 125 to 141 was too much, so bump each up one weight class instead of forfeiting one.
I think the upper weights will be outscoring the lower weights today, contra Friday night.
