Maybe just maybe Huffman should have done more. If that was any other team other then Iowa you wouldn't be that made about it.
Iowa vs Ohio State

- Start date
Please. Alex had riding time and the lead. All he had to do was not get taken down late. Oops. Can we give Kharchla credit for seizing the opportunity instead of bashing Alex?
Yeah, I guess that's why Warner was so gassed after match - because HOFFMAN wasn't doing enough? LMAO. Utterly ridiculous the way the Ref allowed Warner to wrestle the 3rd... running away and hanging on for "stall-mates". [insert eyeroll]
Wasn't Heinselman the wrestler you were obsessed with last year??
Agree, there will be plenty of opportunities to bash Marinelli in March.
Kharchla got his signature win tonight....he's going to be tough be beat from here on out,
He’s very stout. Going to take a great effort to beat him.
I said this once about Kollin Moore but I think it applies even more to Kharchla - he looks a lot like Biff Tannen in Back to the Future!
Obsessed with? I'm afraid others were obsessed with him.... saying he looked like an AA. I'm the one who said he wouldn't AA..... and he didn't.
Hi from Ann Arbor. Just an absolutely dynamite effort from all 10 wrestlers. The kids brought it - energy and more.
Hildebrant set the tone, despite losing, RBY and Lee dominated. Bartlett looked great despite the unfortunate injury. Barraclough too looked decent in a loss, then the backend - I’ll call it murderers row - sealed the deal with Kerkvliet adding an exclamation point. In short, it was fun.

Thanks for the report. Hope you found a good spot to re-hydrate.
I thought all the guys looked focused, I expected a PSU win, didn't really expect that a$$-kickin'. I'm looking forward to Sunday, and really looking forward to Friday night.
Kharchla proved me wrong tonight and I think Brady proved me right.
Lost one to @js8793 and won one against @GogglesPaizano . I did about as well as Iowa tonight - eked out the gimme and came up small in the big test.

Just wait until Taylor and Ruth graduate, right??
You’re right, you better switch to the hard stuff.
And Zain and Cenzo and Bo and Nolf and RBY and Lee and Starocci and Brooks and...
In tonight’s match, I thought the Buckeye fans were ready to explode hoping Hoffman could get the upset.
Then Gavin couldn’t get off bottom for for what seemed like 20 minutes, and all the air was left out of the building. Don’t think he’d be a good fit at PSU. I needed a couple NoDoz to get thru that match, what a snooze fest. 😴
I do not disagree, but Hoffman crawled off the mat close to 6x in the first. Down right embarrassing. I would have been throwing stall calls like they were confetti in that match.
What a shit show. Makes me glad that we passed on both of them. Dean will handle Warner easily., At least a 3-5 point margin.
Seems like Bull getting more love here than on HR. After his loss the reactions over there were brutal.
I hope those guys save some disappointment for March. One of the best things about the tournament was watching the March meltdown of the fans on HR of April-October's champions.
Yes, they eat their own. It's brutal.
Then next Friday could be a bloodbath.
Not that it’s the measurement of a man, but I’d imagine this dude’s hot takes have a tough time keeping the lights on
When Gavin Wrestled Beard in High School.....Who's #1 I think.......he was motivated and showed it. Sadly......He looks like he just wants to graduate. Maybe waiting for 184 to open up and then going 184-197-heavyweight and back to 197 has just taken the love of the sport
Took a peek at the hawks board to see their take on things.
does anyone else see irony in the fact that the number of posts bewailing the lack of an offensive style is almost the same as the number of posts bewailing that stalling is not being called?
my take: it’s a style and they do it well, and the matches were tough just like those in psu-mich. live with it.

A few people? You probably believe CNN and Fox. Names? Oops, we don't need no stinkin names. Jesus, yours is a weak post.
Survival of the dumbest.
The only match I was really disappointed in was Hildebrand and Suriano. That 3rd period is what kills folk style wrestling. Allowing a guy to simply ride and do or try nothing, is complete nonsense.
You should get 30 seconds max, to get it going or we're standing you up. All the other matches had guys try to turn the wrestler. If you're on top, you need to do something. If you're on bottom, you need to do something. 30 seconds or the stall points start flowing, or you're being stood up.

I mean thats up to murin to prove me wrong, name one guy ranked below him that is better.
What are you even talking about. Top of the page had the post. I dont watch mainstream news, stuff creates morons lmao
Based on that match, Dean is going to break him badly - Dean puts a lot of Pressure on - all match long. That Brucki match was awesome.
I don’t disagree. For those that competed, trying to get the ride out (think Dean) is incredibly compelling. For those we drag kicking and screaming with us to watch our sport, it’s boring as hell.
BOTH Hoffman and Warner stalled the entire match. The first period lasted 10 minutes. Both of them should have been DQ'd.
