PSU - Nebraska 2020 Dual Thread

Listening to Byers, it sounded like he was expecting another lower weight to potentially step out here @ 57, someone lighter than Pipher (Gardner?)

Not that everyone hadn't already noticed but Nick looks to have gained a tier since last year's match over Red. Last year's match was closer. Lee has came a long way from the loss to Red at the Indiana State finals. Chad Red is pretty much the same guy as last year. Contrary to what Chertow just said, probably not an NCAA finalist without significant work between now and then.

One thing many people forget about Nick's junior year and his match against Red in HS. Nick was out most of the year with an injury. He wrestled 3 matches in December that year at Team State and didn't wrestle again until the State Tournament. There was no real resistance leading up to the match with Red. He had one major decision in the semifinal against a kid who won the State Title the next year. Not sure if Nick was 100% or not, but he definitely didn't have much mat time leading into that matchup. Would it have mattered? Who knows...
 
157: Bo Pipher vs. Peyton Robb

Per 1
Robb in on a low double and gets the TD, 0-2. They are on the edge, and OOB with 2:25 left. Piper trying to work up, but Robb is tough on top. Bo having a tough time on bottom. Robb works a tilt, and got 1 swipe, so nothing. Pipher working to come out the back, and he gets the reversal, 2-2. Robb to his feet. End. RT @ 2:13 for Robb

Per 2
Robb takes bottom. Robb works up. Now he turns in on Bo, nearly gets the reversal but Bo is able to avoid it and also maintain control. A roll by Robb and he gets the reversal, 2-4. Bo coming out from behind again, but Robb stops him. Bo working up, but taken back down. Robb working a 2-on-1, then releases it. Bo works up to a 4-point stand. End. RT @ 2:39 for Robb

Per 3
Pipher takes bottom. ?? Caution on Robb. Not much from Bo off the whistle. RT is locked for Robb. Stall warning on Bo. He works to his feet but is taken back down. Up to a 4-point stance, then to his feet, but tripped OOB with 57 sec. Caution on Robb. Bo working up, but Robb is tough on top. Bo with a roll, grabs Robb's ankle, but loses it as they go OOB with 18 sec. Not much from Bo off the whistle. He works to his feet and is out with 5 sec, 3-4. End. 4:37 in RT makes it a 3-5 decision.

12-8, Nebraska
 
...I tuned out the announcers when I got tired of the one sided praise for everyone wearing red... :(
 
I've been slow to come around on Nick Lee, but as @bowandarrow would put it, CHOO-CHOOOOO!!

Red showed a lot against a
much-improved Murin last week, but had nothing for Lee. Nick is rolling.

He really is. The thing that surprised me the most is the Chad has typically been difficult to finish on. He has been an excellent scrambler. I don't know how many times he's escaped getting taken down while standing on one leg. He balance was always amazing and he was great at getting into a scramble and scoring off others shots. None of that happened today. Being from Indiana and having watched both Nick and Chad for many years, I had a little fist pump (not an illegal one to the back!) and a big smile from my living room tonight.
 
Ok, I'm also slow to get onto the Chertow hate . . . he's enthusiastic, and what could anyone have against having a few drinks during the day while waiting for such a fun night to arrive. . . but did he really just say "He's choking the crap out of him!" ???
Yes.

read the beginning of the thread. Gardner was who Byers was expecting. Luke and Bo weighed in
 
I love pipher's attitude, at least he goes out and gives it his all! But we need joe lee to start heading down if Berge isn't coming back

He must get paid by the word.
 
Thank goodness I'm at a bar with no volume. Chertow is horrendous. The guy has always been about the almighty dollar.
Just have to keep hoping for improvement out of 149 and 157, but wow, it's not going well now. We've been spoiled for sure. I wrestled D1 and know it's a grind. Hopefully someone emerges.
