Nebraska dual thread - Jan. 17
- Thread starter BeachJ02
- Start date
The Ayala’s sent a spy kid to scout us out you can see him lurking over Carter’s right shoulder.
As a fan, all I want is for all of our guys to win all their matches by bonus. I don’t think that’s too much to ask.
Definitely will work on boots prevention. Bottom man can get gassed very quickly
I hear ya. Then again,why can't Singleton and Allen run like Barkley?
I think Kerk was nearly 10 lbs lighter than his last match. He was well over 250 previously. Could be the illness, maybe he varies his weight a little based upon the opponent? Probably the prior.
Charles?

That’s gonna make for interesting conversation with the wife on the ride home.
Guys backing up. They say, “Oh, I didn’t get pinned.” Carter, “Dude, like you suck.”

Pure filth:
@amattaro You said the Nebby fans were gracious--was there any heat from any of them during the Mesenbrink match? Just curious.

I wondered how best to phrase it, but then said - **** it! Too early for delicate prose
As THE leading member of the Fire Cael Caucus, I’m going to add this data point to our end of season performance review. Our starters have already lost 5 dual matches which is, as you know, unacceptable
Gibbons and Shane loved that. He hit it last year, too.
My favorite filth is still the misdirection single Ed Ruth hit on Heflin
On Monday he is going to put on a blue suit and red tie. He will walk around yelling "fight, fight, fight!"
heres a question for all of us,MM had that bar and scored 4 for the tech but still had the bar in trying to pin the kid,why did the ref stop the match since he still had the pinning move in and was trying to turn him again?if he let the move go thats when the ref stops the match I think this ref did it twice!
SVN’s match left me scratching my head. He didn’t do what he normally does, even in the first period. Didn’t really push the pace and try to wear Lovett out.
Wonder if he’s coming off a bout of illness like Kerk.

I kinda figured. We PSU fans love to create a little drama because it so rarely presents itself on the mat for us these days, .ol.
Nebraska might be apparel national champs.
MM knows his misdirection too though. But EZ Ed made everything look effortless.
One man's dreams may be another man's spoils?🤷
I'm still picking the shut out against the hawks..sue me.

Not to pile on you--and I wasn't sure before the match, but I'm not so sure Taylor has much of a shot in 1 out of ten bouts with Kasak.
No I ment alot, silly goose
Terrific match. Not worried at all about the losses. Ridge is elite (past defeats and transitive crap mean squat) and Van Dee’s tough at home. I don’t rationalize any loss other than to say the other wrestler was better those 7 minutes. Re-rack the bout, and outcomes may flip.
As for our freshmen, if Luke is lightning, Josh is thunder.

Does stuffing Jordan Williams put you in hodge contention? If that the case we got a whole lineup of hodge contenders
He is! I think our guy is better.
That 2nd hat is 🥶Nebraska might be apparel national champs.
Best ever? It's a great post (and pics!) for sure, but it's not even amattaro's best post ever.
@amattaro's Mona Lisa
Lol. He never was in Hodge contention with a 4x champ and an Olympic champ in the field, and several other returning champs behind them.
But my point was "Shayne hasn't beaten anyone with a pulse" is demonstrably false. And that's not what your reply focused on.
The only heat all night did not come through on TV. Luke got plenty of boos when he did the finger twirl after his match. But he didn’t GAF and followed it with the singlet flex.
I texted my buddies after 0-0 first that it was a huge win for Ridge. We've watched him since his childhood and he's so good with a lead or even super close matches. Have to get that first TD. He didn't seem to attack as hard after not getting that first one.
I thought Van Ness was aggressive but defensive at the same time. The way he was looking up and reaching came across like he didn't want to make a mistake. Just my take on it. I think first period he went all out then tightened up second and third
Ed Ruth was a stud on the mat pure and simple. Wtf
Hmm, not sure about that. SVN is definitely more finesse than bulldozer, but it took Kasak 2 "feels" and losses to Lovett last year before he was able to reverse the result at NCAAs. He lost to Lovett in the dual 7-3 and at the B10 tourney 4-0, then figured it out and put a 10-1 MD on him in March.
I believe last night was SVN's first ever match with Lovett. I wasn't surprised by the result. Lovett is a funky, very good wrestler who was the #1 seed at NCAAs last year.
I suspect Lovett will come to regret that SVN got this hands-on assessment opportunity before post-season matchups that really matter.
Sometimes you gotta give the other guy some credit. Lovett is extremely dangerous and difficult to wrestle, especially the first time.
I was impressed with SVN’s work off bottom in the second. The score didn’t reflect how close the match was. That’s a toss up every time imo. Great top 3 at this weight with Henson, SVN, and Lovett.
