2.5 tournament bonus points left on the table. Have to clean that up.
Tyler and Braeden in the presser—I dunno guys, Kasak seems likes he loves it at PSU, exactly like that nut from the Rutgers board said he would. Portal all but confirmed. 🤣
I’ll prolly post the video tomorrow—CDT was the only other outlet recording it

My go to is mostly Double IPAs. Voodoo Ranger Imperial 9% and Dogfish 90 min. 9% If I really want a quick night, I will go with Flying Dog Double Dog IPA 12%.You must be the Bartles and James era, ?
Or Zima?
Real men drink Mickey's Big Mouth, when the bottle had a pull top like a can.
There is a new one (its good) that is 9.2%....can't remember the name right now. Tonight it is Elysian Space Dust 8%. Soon I won't remember much at all.......except 55 to Zilch

After the PSU dual I watched the B10 wrestling special about two brothers who attended Wisconsin, one who went on to coach there. Nice story, but I was shocked to see the wrestling room in Madison. Looked like my high school wrestling room......and that wasn't very nice. I understand not all wrestlers commit to a school because of the facilities, but that room looked like something out of the '50's. Are the Badgers investing much into their program? I know there was an earlier thread about "What's going on in Madison?" It's probably the coaching and recruiting, but those facilities aren't helping.
IMO Space Dust in a bottle, which I have enjoy many times, smells like weed.My go to is mostly Double IPAs. Voodoo Ranger Imperial 9% and Dogfish 90 min. 9% If I really want a quick night, I will go with Flying Dog Double Dog IPA 12%.

That's not a bad thing
I had read something to the effect of Wisconsin would only be funding half the 9.9 wrestling scholarships allowed.
I’m worried about wrestling come revenue sharing next year. Look at Michigan. Look at Michigan State. Look at Wisconsin. What is happening?
When’s the last time the B1G was this underrepresented in the rankings?
Troegs Nugget Nectar at this time of year. it is seasonal, and my favorite beer.My go to is mostly Double IPAs. Voodoo Ranger Imperial 9% and Dogfish 90 min. 9% If I really want a quick night, I will go with Flying Dog Double Dog IPA 12%.

Replay is on Fox Sports App now. Along with MD Mich.
Beau sporting 2 different shoes again. He must have inspired my wife, cause she has gone to the grocery store twice with 2 different shoes.

In Iowa if they can't yell "heeeessss staaaalllllinnnnn!" it's going to be a very quiet gym.
Penn State-Edinboro was also 55-0 last season
I did not realize that Michigan State did not have a single wrestler ranked in the top 33 at their weight. They have a freshman at 197 who has is currently 23rd, but was not in the line-up today. May well be red-shirting. Has a Big Ten team ever sent nobody to the NCAAs? That has to be pretty rare.
It amazes me how much the wrestling landscape has changed. When I was in college, MSU had one of the best programs. In 1972 they had 3 NCAA champions. Nowadays, when people tune into BTN and watch them get demolished like today, I don’t know how they will ever be able to attract any decent talent to rebuild their program.
Thanks and yikes.Oh no. You have to read thru it yourself.

Weh8st8hawk is at least smart enough to realize (but only after he'd argued himself into a corner) that first amendment violations require a state actor, so he characterized the police officers as enforcing the referee's "you can't yell stalling" order.
Another poster--The-Dude-Abides--has enough of a grasp of con law that I was like, okay, here's someone to restore sanity, but then he essentially agrees with Weh8st8hawk, lol.
If police officers at a public high school sporting event enforced a referee's decision to eject certain fans over certain speech (yelling "stalling"), you might genuinely have a first amendment problem.
But that's not what happened. The ref kicked everyone out, and I'm reasonably sure he'd characterize his decision as being in the best interest of the kids or something similar. Whether the ref overreacted (I'll guess probably) isn't relevant to first amendment analysis.
Online first amendment discourse often finds people confusing privileges for rights, and this is a good example of that. Also lost in this discussion is some consideration for the type of speech at issue--yelling at high school referees is further down the list than, say, political speech.
If the Iowa state legislature passed a bill prohibiting yelling "stalling" at high school wrestling matches, that would indeed be
Well, if your goal is to be a four year starter, it's a pretty good place.

I would go in order of highest likelihood of losing a match:
125
157
141
149
133
174
197
184
165
285
The Penn State wrestler would be favored in every one. The first five matches would all be fairly similar odds. I would set the o/u for total losses at 1.5 just like you referenced.
The entire dual, or "Full Game," is on B1G+ now.
Here's PBP for Kerk:
285 - Greg Kerkvliet VS Max Vanadia
Period 1:
Kerk is coming forward off the whistle. He drops to a leg & gets a quick TD, 3-0. Kerk cuts Vanadia, 3-1. Kerk comes forward, snaps & comes behind for another TD, 6-1. Kerk cuts Vanadia, 6-2. Kerk is pressing forward again. Vanadia shoots, Kerk counters & gets another TD, 9-2. Kerk locks up a tight cradle & takes Vanadia to his back for the fall!
Greg Kerkvliet FALL Max Vanadia (56-sec)

Difference is back then they had a 158 pounder who would debate the other team to death.
I don't know whether I am proud or sorry to say, but this team no longer wrestles Duals.
We might need to revise the spelling.
Weigh-ins:
The first match:
Going up against our lineup:
Iowa Hawkeys trying to catch up:
Yep, I think Duels is a more accurate term.

he debates anytime, anywhere, and on any subject.
Maybe I was too obtuse for you lol.
Both can be true at the same time.
PS - Keeping with the Western theme. Then there is Shane Van Ness. Do we need to start thinking about the PSU individual record number of pins for a season?
He is playing with his food.

Just got up as I’m on Pacific Time and got it immediately. Well done
In 10-15 years or so there will be some guys who grew up in Michigan and we're really good college/international wrestlers and might want to coach somewhere.
Our Iowa freind JS probably misses telling us all how our boys cant turn people...
The funniest thing about the broadcast was when Sparks was very appropriately gushing about the greatness and dominance of Penn State and you could tell it was just killing Gibbons. He grudgingly acknowledged Sparks’ comments but it was so obvious that it was excruciating for him to do so and he was getting very annoyed. 😂

I swear there was a part where Gibbons was talking about all the great wrestling families and he said the Gibbons. But that might have been when I had bourbon on my jeans and couch.
