Michigan match thread - Fri, Jan 19

[Eyecatcher]

Thank you. Post has been edited as to avoid any further confusion. 😜

I just feel that proper Pennsyltucky hillbilly gibberish should be the language we use hear as no Michigan man would ever understand it. Letttuce do hour part to conseal any secrets of the die nasty.

Kind of OT, but, does UM have a wrestling message board? I have looked and not found one. The only strictly wrestling message board I have seen are the Cesspool, NJRU (Rutgers) and the Guillotine (Minnesota).

If they do, I’m betting they’ve had a giggle over the glasses abuse.

 

[bwfight]

Did you catch Cael saying, "If he goes on Friday" about Kasak? Interesting and curious. Hopefully he does go because obviously this is a big measuring stick and he shouldn't be shocked or concerned should he lose that match, assuming he puts up a good fight.

Michigan should feel fortunate to have had him for 18 years.

Don’t you mean 12 years ? 😉

IDK about Michigan.

Ohiowrestling.net is not officially an Ohio State board, but it may as well be, and it's a very good board.

 

[Psubiomed]

I feel like, in order to avoid giving up a penalty point, the fist in the back was renamed going for the gusto.

Still……..no one is going to get it.

A stallmate tho….thats possible.

Good gravy!

Gibbons will try to turn every conversation to the great Iowa team.

didn't gibbons go to Iowa State,why would he ever even mention iowa!

 

[Roar More]

I am having a watch party for the match tonight. In Gibbons' honor, I am bringing my hips to the party.

I have a coffee grinder and I'm going for the gusto!

 

[LDandy]

Official predictions:

Davis: will press him down
Nagao: will press down, go for the gusto but ultimately not achieve it
Bartlett: will shoot the leg and achieve gusto
Kasak: will have a mat return but not get credit for a takedown but still press down
Haines: will press down with midsection in tow
Mesenbrink: will shoot the leg multiple times, go for the gusto and get the gusto
Starocci: gusto
Truax: will shoot the leg with the ankle in tow
Brooks: gusto
Kerkvleit: will shoot the leg two times and then press down, no gusto but very close to gusto

That all sounds fascinating, but can you tell me how many football tackles will be recorded tonight?

He’s part of the Midwest Wrestling Mafia - a lot of them are steamed that the gravitational center of college wrestling has moved east

Football tackles will be the advantage Michigan has

[GogglesPaizano]

My guess is, of the 15 kids that travel, 13 will wrestle this weekend and I bet Evans is one of them.

I just wish the match notes were slightly more liberal in this respect, if for nothing else than maintaining better KYPSW integrity. Why not list all the kids traveling as potentials?

Reading that made me imagine how good Shakira would be at wrestling…..me.

Her hips don’t lie, but they might just tell you they’re not coming to your party

 

[Psubiomed]

I already messed up because I bought chips to the party and dips to the party but I forgot my hips.

 

[KCLion]

He loves Iowa!

He's a life-long dues-paying member of Bushwood Country Club -- and here comes nouveau-riche trash Al Czervik, taking over the party.

 

[apoharrow]

Pat says no Gomez tonight

 

[SlipperyPete12]

Sounds like we're starting at 157:

 

[nerfstate]

I always thought it was Tim Johnson who was the mega Iowa homer. At the very least, it always looks like he's waiting for PSU to "fall back to the pack..."

Anyway--started watching this:


Literally the first thing Davison says is "[Coach Jackson's] attention to detail is next to none." That's funny right? I thought it was funny...

Weird that they’d opt to end at 149 without Gomez.

Yeah wtf is that about

 

[Random4598375]

They figure most people are going to tune out when they are down 25-0 at the break. LOL.

Imagine choosing to start the match facing Levi, Mesenbrink, Starocci, Truax, and Brooks. Ouch.

In the days before the internet, Iowa Public Television was the go-to for wrestling. They covered not only Iowa, Iowa State, UNI but also national events like National Duals. They also sold VHS tapes of a lot of events. Gibbons and Johnson were the announcers for IPTv. I wouldn't say they are dinosaurs, but the new order has to be shocking to them.

Other than IPTv, Channel 39 used to broadcast Lehigh home matches (they were also carried on Channel 33 in Hershey). That was about it for wrestling television coverage.

 

[SpikingWhamos]

Yeah wtf is that about

Betting that some of Levi's (slightly) down performances are weight related and they can catch him off the scale?

 

[Fink]

I think if the teams don't agree on start weight, it is chosen by random draw. My guess is they didn't agree.

 

[wrestlingfan22]

Weird that they’d opt to end at 149 without Gomez.

They must have drawn it out of a hat, or it is a ploy to give their guys at 125 and 133 more time to recover. Or maybe Pat is just wrong lol.

 

[mcpat]

All right! It’s 5:00. I got a glass of wine from the box in my fridge and am ready for six hours of B1G wrestling baby!

 

[STAND with PRIDE]

Weird that they’d opt to end at 149 without Gomez.

Thought it was a random draw if both coaches couldnt agree on starting at 125.

This aint the NCAA finals.

 

[Maddog]

And Kerk

 

[mcpat]

I wrestled 103 in high school and talked my friend into wrestling he was about 180 we wrestled together all the time since he was new and we both got better he ended up being pretty good for wrestling just 1 yr!

What weight could you make now?

 

[Random4598375]

And Kerk

Kerk will start the second half. The break will come after Brooks.

 

[STAND with PRIDE]

Who are you kidding, you will be tits up after the first glass.

 

[mcpat]

the plural form of who is is whose.

That’s what some of you’ins may think
