OK ST @ Iowa - Feb 23

[johnstownsteel]

Remember in the preseason when Cam Amine said he was going to open up and let it fly?

Good times.

He wrestles like he can't f'n wait until his career is over..

 

[82bordeaux]

Agreed. Caliendo is hard not to like.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Nelson Brands?!

 

[Pitchfork Rebel]

That guy isn't peaking at the right time lol

Shoulder brace = survival

 

[Bob_Anderson]

Shoulder brace = survival

This is gonna be bonus

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

We will see the offensive juggernaut of Nelson Brands against Hamiti.

Again for all you recruits out there...
Last time Cam Amine lost to Caliendo by DEC in extra time. Now he gets majored. DT's wrestlers regress. 😉

 

[AgSurfer]

Nelson Brands - the master at only losing by a point.

 

[RB-Old]

Nelson laid flat for 1:30 and no stall warning?

 

[Nitlion1986]

I thought bottom belly wrestling was stalling.

 

[FatWoodchuck]

Nelson laid flat for 1:30 and no stall warning?

My wife was yelling stalling.

 

[District four]

I thought bottom belly wrestling was stalling.

Iowa fans aren't knowledgeable to notice

 

[mcpat]

Need bonus here at 174 and then need a dub at 184.

 

[AgSurfer]

Hamiti should follow Jordan Burroughs advice and attack the left leg.

 

[Pitchfork Rebel]

Man that was sloppy.

 

[mcpat]

Explain the neutral decision by Nelson. Please.

 

[Nitlion1986]

I am assuming Gibbons is a huge Messenbrink fan. Not sure what else to think considering he said Caliendo has had a couple great matches with Messenbrink.

 

[PAgeologist]

Explain the neutral decision by Nelson. Please.

It looks better while doing nothing.

[District four]

Brands absolutely sucks at wrestling

 

[82bordeaux]

The lack of a stall warning in the first period was huge.

 

[PSU Mike]

HTF does Brands avoid a single stall call?

 

[mcpat]

Not enough urgency from Hamiti at end to get bonus. OkSt leaving some team points off the board. 125 and 174

 

[Nitlion1986]

Explain the neutral decision by Nelson. Please.

Stall.
He doesn't even do the Iowa push, just try to hold position and lose by as few points as possible.

 

[psualt]

OSU leaving some bonus again. Not good.

 

[Pitchfork Rebel]

I am assuming Gibbons is a huge Messenbrink fan. Not sure what else to think considering he said Caliendo has had a couple great matches with Messenbrink.

Gibbons has CTE.

 

[Verolion]

Crazy no stalls called on Brands

 

[raslen007]

Hamiti is concerning with how good he is at getting to the legs. Levi will need to bring his hips the party.

 

[Delcolion915]

Kinda sad. Kids career came down to stalling to avoid a major in his final match.

 

[backdrft76]

0 stall calls on Brands. Horrid officiating.

 

[RB-Old]

HTF does Brands avoid a single stall call?

When your baseline is doing absolutely nothing it's hard for the ref to tell when you're trying to stall.

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

Hamiti is concerning with how good he is at getting to the legs. Levi will need to bring his hips the party.

Yeah he looks great up at 174.

 

[Cstroke]

Iowa fans aren't knowledgeable to notice

Gable was the only one calling for it.

 

[Pitchfork Rebel]

0 stall calls on Brands. Horrid officiating.

Angel...

 

[WEAREPSU_LI]

I think Angelo's got this. He's the real deal.

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Explain the neutral decision by Nelson. Please.

^^This. Winning answer to the question,

 

[RB-Old]

I have a sick feeling Ferrari is going to win this.

 

[creamery freak]

Hamiti is concerning with how good he is at getting to the legs. Levi will need to bring his hips the party.

Hamiti shut it down early, wonder why?

 

[BoHunter0210]

Brands should’ve been warned for stalling. Hamiti even stalled instead of getting after it. Let’s face it WE ARE blessed with the most exciting team. Watching psu is a breath of fresh air.

 

[YeOldeCup]

Taking a knee from neutral when not engaged should automatically start a 5 count.
