149 Shayne Van Ness v Manzona Bryant

• Bryant catches an ankle and converts, SVN out easily. 2-1 Bryant
• SVN with a leg, and a near side cradle. It's tight. NF points awarded. Bryant fights it off valiantly but there's a ton of time and he has nowhere to go. Fall called.

 

[mcpat]

Looking fwd to this one. (SVN)

Not sure how it’s not stalling when Hines spends half the match on his knees

If the other guy is silly enough to walk hips high, straight into him for the easiest takedown a D1 wrestler might ever get its setting up his offense.

 

[mcpat]

Pretty large wrap on SVN left leg.

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

SVN-Bryant is a very funny contrast of gas tanks.

 

[PAHURDLER]

Van Ness works him over on a cradle.

Working in the fall! Fall! 2:28.

 

[mcpat]

Boom! SVN nearside cradle…..

 

[nitlion6]

Looking fwd to this one. (SVN)

Yeah. Short, but fun.

 

[Thenightking]

Nice!!!!!

 

[mcpat]

No flinch after giving up the first TD. Even initially tried to be aggressive/offensive when his opponent was in deep. Lots to like about what we’re seeing at 149.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a motor like his. Even a guy like AB gets tired on occasion (Assad match, last season) but SVN just keeps going, and going.

Go to 16 teams. Do it like ncaa with conferences and then at Large bids

Barraclough wrestled hard, but there was a gap between he and Humphreys.

Why did Meyer just let that go?

 

[mcpat]

Come on Alex. This isn’t what I’ve seen from you so far this year.

 

[mcpat]

But that was. Sweet TD Alex.

 

[PSUbluTX]

Barraclough wrestled hard, but there was a gap between he and Humphreys.

Like a #30 vs #8 gap?

 

[mcpat]

There should be a team point deduction for the home team when the broadcast doesn’t include a riding time clock.

 

[mcpat]

Like a #30 vs #8 gap?

Yeah. But that’s pretty much my point. Not seeing pts there at nationals. But it’s early in the season.

 

[tikk10]

There should be a team point deduction for the home team when the broadcast doesn’t include a riding time clock.

To the announcers' credit they've been good about letting us know. But still, yeah.

Ironhead provides the riding time.
