Match Thread Journeymen Collegiate Duals - Dec 21-22

Any idea why Nasir Bailey chose neutral in the 3rd period? Don't know much about Bailey's prowess from bottom, but seemed an odd decision. Maybe cost him the match?
That was asked earlier. Apparently he never chooses bottom? I haven't watch him before to confirm.
He would need a TD to win regardless. May as well spend 2 minutes trying to get it.
Hamiti and O'Toole will face 2x, dual + B12s.
Also, Penn's Incontrera has a decent shot at being unbeaten heading into NCAAs. If so, he could be seeded ahead of the B12 runner-up since he'd win 2 of the seeding criteria.
Point being, NCAA 174 brackets might not be as obvious as we're assuming.
That to me looks like Levi is on top in control.
Got to see live the Missouri Match at 6:00 pm. Great opportunity to see the PSU team for row 3 of the highschool gym....very cool.
Question: who was the "country star" that was sitting on the PSU Bench. he had a PSU hat on and was even in the pictures when the trophy was handed out.
Michael Chandler UFC Fighter was wearing a Missouri Tigers Jersey........... Aaron Brooks in attendance also. Great opportunity for a Nashville guy to see PSU wrestle and to be so close to the action........

I can't believe we're still complaining about Beau Bartlett in 2024. I can't think of a finer young man to represent the PSU wrestling team. Imagine how spoiled this fanbase must be when an 83-18 career record and a likely 3X AA is considered 'average'. 33 of those 83 wins were of the bonus variety, which is a 40% clip. We should all be so ordinary.
Beau also has earned bonus in 6 of his 9 bouts this season, including a major and a pin yesterday, and scored 2 falls in the NCAA tournament last season. But no need to allow facts to spoil the narrative.
Depending on which was ahead it is easy to pause either Lionvision or youtube to synch up the feeds. I do it all the time.
I do have to laugh, early in football season they had a web page devoted to synching the feeds. It said click here for instructions. I was thinking they had some new tech to synch them up, nope, it literally said, pause the one ahead until they are synched…..
IIRC, another poster identified him as Warren Zeiders. He’s a Hershey native who now lives in Nashville. He recently performed at the BJC with Jelly Roll
Wow, look at the still clips from Pyles and remember that this was sudden victory and the second he established control, a takedown should have been called. I'm fine with how it played out, but Missouri/O'Toole certainly would have had nothing to bitch about had they given the takedown and the win to Levi. I have to agree with Pyles that if anything, it looks a bit more like a takedown in the still frames than it did in "real life", but they did have the benefit of replay, slow motion and still frame. It will just make him hungrier I'm guessing. Great showing by PSU in general.

Like others, I’m oddly comfortable with Levi’s razor-thin loss to a fifth-year senior and two-time national champ, especially in December. The match was terrific and I’m fine with the call. More than anything, I like that our oak-strong stud now has a mini Vision Quest and chip on his shoulder come March. My Saturday night money is all in for Levi.
As soon as the step over leg was in it was control and should have been a TD. Levi was at risk of losing control when KOT was being awarded the TD but control at that moment was still Levi's. The fact Levi was at risk of losing control has zero to do with anything since the match was over once Levi put that leg in.
As far as anybody being OK with it, the sequence was called incorrectly.

KOT head popping though looked to me like a guy executing a reversal from a rider getting too high. I don’t think there have been 5 takedowns from that position in History but millions of reversals.
Not meant to pile it on on Beau, but his bonus points were against #121, 195, 72, 152, 25, 38 ranked wrestlers, which is all fine and dandy. But he should be bonusing everyone he wrestles not named Mendez, Alirez, and Hardy and not go overtime against a #94 ranked wrestler like Fongaro.
