I'll bet he thinks the Capitol of Alaska is Anchorage , though. Next question
That bar is so low, worms jump over it.
Based on this match and the NCAA final, I don't think arithmetic was Mitchell's strongest subject!
My apologies to all of you, who I love equally *unless I’ve blocked you 😬, but it is an aside.
I always get a warm fuzzy when @diggerpup makes his presence known.

Michigan had zero takedowns.
Did Michigan score an offensive point or even take a legitimate shot?
I don't think a Wolverine wrestler touched a leg all night.
Nice work, Bormet - when you don't fill your roster w/ transfer mercenaries, your team completely sucks.

I don't remember many shots from Michigan, but they grazed a few legs. Solid effort by Michigan to not lose by 40.
His length was giving Van Ness some issues. Kid had ridiculously long arms and kept throwing in the wizzer
I was sooooo frustrated watching that match live. There was literally a half dozen times barr could have scored he just won't pull the trigger for some reason. I thought for sure he was going to lose in ride outs then he pulled it out. He needs to pull the trigger these close matches are going to bite him at the wrong time
Are you aware that's the go to for dope dealers everywhere?
Actually Lemley did. It was BB that had zero touches in the match. :-/
Last year when Kasak got in line up I thought Van Ness was going to have trouble to get his spot back . I even posted it .
Fortunately Kasak went up a weight .

Bo had the guts to try it. Most guys would have tried to roll to stomach to avoid pin
Kerk hit a side roll for a reversal and a 5 count that was rewarded with zero back points.
Elementary moves done to perfection work really well.
I wasn't telling you something you don't already know, I just chose your post to respond.
The idea that ref didn't even try to get in position was unbelievable. When looking at replay he had a chance to correct a wrong and chose not to. I would think Beg Ten will take a look at that.

That ref was out of position the whole meet wtf with this guy.
The PSU press release says Michigan didn’t have any takedowns.
From our seats last year it wasn’t SVN that would have trouble. It was the wrestler that turned out to not have a spot this year. It was clear SVN or Kasak would have to go up and Kasak by NCAA’s was looking bigger than his most of his opponents.

I like this kid Barr a LOT. He trolled Cardenas and the sissy style modern officiating twice. First was when in the first period where he just tapped his fingers on Cardenas to show he could place no pressure on the guy and he still wouldn't shoot or even move. Even better at the end of the third ... Cardenas drops to one knee, AGAIN, and does NOTHING, which should be, you know, A STALL WARNING! Barr responds by waiting a moment and then going to both knees and just staring up at him! Hahahaha! That was so damn funny I thought it deserved its own thread
I wasn't listening to Byers but I bet he got a kick out of that.

Also, someone tell Jim Gibbons to retire! He spent the whole match praising Cardenas as a Big Real Woods.
Boy, that's what wrestling needs....a Big Real Woods....

In fairness to Gibbons, he was watching a shut out and to keep praising Penn State would turn off a lot of viewers.
He was just trying to please the Iowa fans. Same as bringing up Bo Bassett committing to Iowa. Not sure of the relevance during a PSU-Michigan match to talk about an Iowa committment.
Cardenas’ whole thing is going low and waiting for his opponents to get bored with meeting him there and hitting his double. RBY has that in his arsenal too (but of course he has more).
I thought Josh wrestled a smart match overall but I also hope, as his confidence in his own stuff grows, he’ll find ways to get to his scoring more against the top guys and not just neutralize theirs. He definitely did more of that last night than against Buchanan, and I have faith he’s gonna get there.

The PSU relevance is he was simply pointing out to PSU fans that despite Iowa being 4 states separated from PSU in both geography and wrestling levels Iowa can still occasionally find a truly elite recruit to grind down and retard development.
I’m not sure …. I’m certain that I’ve seen well over 150 matches at Rec/BJC, but, that reversal with just a few seconds left over a #2 has got to be in my top 8-10 …..EVER!
