I thought it was the first time SVN kinda looked a little tired at end of a match.
Yep. They were both gassed lol.
Maybe they are like Askren and going by the eye test...
Absolutely. He can win the rest of his matches the rest of the season and it will be said he hasn't been tested.
Next week's match will tell us alot about where Levi stands. If it goes down that is...
Assuming Levi beats Lewan, more on here will jump on the Levi bandwagon. There will still be those who think save the shirt and even a few who will say he still hasn't been tested. Possibly after the Big10s most will see him as tested.
Levi Haines is tested daily in Lorenzo (more than any weekly dual match), our coaches see it and know damn well where he stands. Trust em.
Being ridden like a rented mule will do that to you. Next time he'll get out. That was the key to the match.
Gomez was gassed because he's not conditioned as well as SVN and doesn't have the same motor.
Gomez was gassed because he’s built for drinking beer.
Nobody remembers this guy but in the mid 70s penn state had a 190 pounder named Bill Bertrand. Bertrand was busted for streaking twice, and it wasn't unusual for him to take the mat after a long night drinking the night before...he was a total madman...
All talent, no discipline.
So he was Ferrari without the trunk full of guns?
He was likeable, unlike Ferrari, but a certified raging lunatic 😆
If they had social media back in the 70s he would have been an early version of quick twitch. From Burgettstown pa so he probably was familiar with guns.

Hey, be careful. Speaking for myself, and I'd venture to guess at least one or 2 more folks, I resemble that remark.
I talked to a coach last year about redshirting as a freshman in a different sport. The coach said if the athlete can make the varsity team as a freshman, they won’t redshirt them. Never waste a season, the coach said, because you never know what will happen in the future.
It's funny you ask because I'm about to post a request for a good ticket to the dual. However, I still have to confirm one more cheer date. My goddaughter is doing competitive cheer and since her dad died a couple years back I ensure I make it to all of her cheer events, regardless of how much I loathe spending an entire weekend (time and money) to watch her and her team perform two 3-minute routines on the big stage. But she loves it so it is what it is. I should know for sure in the next couple days. That said, do you have access to a good ticket? I'd be willing to pay top dollar to a person or a charity for a great seat.
NH - kudos on being there for your goddaughter! Well done.It's funny you ask because I'm about to post a request for a good ticket to the dual. However, I still have to confirm one more cheer date.

That's underselling Model a little bit. He's a top 20 6th year senior, so probably at least 5 years older than Levi, and is 11-4 and has only lost to guys in the InterMat top 20 this year (Artalona x2, Chumbley, and Levi). He was a qualifier last year (and lost to Franek and O'Connor, so elite competition...) and has some quality wins (Gilcher, Kraisser). That was a great win for Levi in dominating fashion. While Model isn't winning it, 157 is open for the taking this year. If 157 had someone nearly unbeatable like 149 (Yanni) or was stacked like 165, I wouldn't give him much of a chance to win it, but 157? Sure, there's a chance (although my money isn't on exactly it yet, though...).
How many seats do you require? The more you need, the tougher the task!It's funny you ask because I'm about to post a request for a good ticket to the dual.

You don't like tough ticketing.
