PSU - Buffalo Dual Thread

[Tom McAndrew]

I'm setting this up in advance. And a heads up that I WILL NOT be able to do PBP. I believe Tim will be in press row at Rec Hall, so hopefully he can post observations, etc. I hope that one or more of you can provide PBP to those that are unable to attend the match, view the match, or stream the audio PBP.

We Are ...

- pumped for Senior Day
- kind of sad that it's the last PSU dual of the season
- in disbelief that this is ZPain's last match at Rec Hall
- of the belief that the Nittany Lion will have an advantage over Victor E. Bull
- appreciative of every PSU senior wrestler that is announced today
- hoping to send out Kuhn, Keener, and ZPain with victories
- looking forward to the postseason
- crazy about PSU wrestling, but think the most amazing thing on campus today is taking place at the BJC

... Penn State!!!!

Love our wrestling team, but really looking forward to the PSU vs Purdue B-ball game. Exciting day in PSU sports.

 

[WildTurk]

Prayers for our nation's Buffalo.. For they are about to get slaughtered again.

 

[LemonPie]

Never thought i'd be most excited about 125 and 133 in a dual this year.

 

[SpikingWhamos]

Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

Both James Franklin-speak AND a fully grammatically correct sentence!

 

[Tim Owen/BWI staff]

Unable to make it to today's match. I'll be listening to Byers and trying to keep up with this thread but don't count on me for PBP

 

[Big Blue12]

Who's is going at 197?

 

[BigFreddy]

Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

Both James Franklin-speak AND a fully grammatically correct sentence!

A+ post here.

 

[tikk10]

Saw Buffalo up close when they wrestled Columbia (which dual they won 25-13). They're solid at the first four weights, highlighted by podium-threat Lantry at 133, but it's going to be a fast day once we get to 149.

here's hoping one or more of you can step up and provide PBP.

just a gentle reminder -- try to include the match score, and the dual score, in your posts

 

[Gray52]

Cael spoke at the pre-match social. No match at 125. Buffalo forfeits. Nick gets the backup at heavy. Their other top guy is out too.
He was asked, but Cael didn’t address who’s going at 197.
Cael said Nolf is going harder than he should in practice, but isn’t ready yet, even though he said Nolf was basically lobbying to go today.

No match at 125??? That stinks.

 

[Maddog]

Agree. I was looking forward to see what Kuhn would do in a winnable match.

That’s some sweet news about Nolf!

 

[RoarLions1]

Just heard...Buffalo’s 125, 133 & 285 likely not going...injuries.

Saw someone else posted too...

Everything in this post sucks (I'm not shooting the messenger ). Except for Nolf lobbying to go today. Wow!!!! That is awesome. He has almost a month yet

 

[Cowbell Man]

Tough way to start a come back.....NATO, Lee and whoever will be seeded third at B1G’s.

 

[Ja1339]

Byers mentioned Cortez for Senior day festivities. Cortez not a senior, what gives?

 

[PSUAllTheWay]

Buffalo wrestlers said to be 'banged up' from Thursday's match. In wrestling speak that could mean they have anything from a bloody nose to broken bones ...

 

[LemonPie]

Just cancel the dual. Probably flu

 

[jschrantz]

Everything in this post sucks (I'm not shooting the messenger ). Except for Nolf lobbying to go today. Wow!!!! That is awesome. He has almost a month yet

Who cares? The piece that most Matters is Nolf

 

[mvattivo]

Byers just announced that it will be Rasheed at 197

 

[TexasLion1979]

Never schedule Buffalo again. The matches where we needed to see our guys progress are no going to happen. Go away Bulls

 

[Ja1339]

Cortez expected to transfer.. Best of luck Jared.

I wouldn’t expect Nolf to have lost anything in the way of gas tank. It takes a few weeks for that to start to substantially degrade and cross training opportunities abound. Add to that him working back into wrestling and we are likely to see him very close to 100% as long as he doesn’t reinjure it...patience.

 

[mvattivo]

It is very disappointing that their 3 top guys are out. They all wrestled Thursday against Binghamton.

 

[CropDuster507]

Cortez expected to transfer.. Best of luck Jared.

Where'd you hear that?

 

[Afw6006]

Always love what the student announcers say are the keys to victory. Today's gems:

Finish the year strong
Rack up the pins
Stay Healthy

*John Madden Voice*: The team that scores the most points usually wins

 

[Ja1339]

Buffalo coach auditioning for a spot on Tan Tom's staff?

 

[Ja1339]

Where'd you hear that?

Byers

 

[Used2BEerie]

Where'd you hear that?

Byers, but his words were that he was “moving on”, so he may just be hanging them up.

 

[Ja1339]

Byers comment was not sure why Buffalo came today.

 

[jrd23psu]

I agree that if schools are going to come out and not bother wrestling their guys then we shouldn't schedule them in the future.

 

[LemonPie]

For whatever reason, Akins wrestled in the Mat Town Open II yesterday

 

[Lion8286]

Where'd you hear that?

Cortez was honored at senior day before the match so you would have to assume he's not coming back.

 

[Ja1339]

Could this Buffalo squad beat BECA?

 

[Used2BEerie]

Could this Buffalo squad beat BECA?

Not sure they could beat Becky!

 

[Cali_Nittany]

I agree that if schools are going to come out and not bother wrestling their guys then we shouldn't schedule them in the future.

They even sent out their backup for 141 too.

 

[jschrantz]

Not Wyoming Seminary who blanked Becahi
