PSU - Nebraska Dual Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
So Berger was studying video of Nolf (from the article linked today), and still got taken down 5 times and TFed.
Really am looking forward to the match next week with IMar.
Really am looking forward to the match next week with IMar.
Ironhead blows a gasket, time for a 90-second intermission......
Love it - such a great announcer - none better for wrestling! Our FB announcers are the best too. Complete bias I am sure, but whatever
Watching the first two scoreless minutes of the match, I couldn't help but feel as if Berger was working a whole lot harder than Jason.
He obviously couldn't maintain the pace.

So was it simply Cael's decision to start Morelli tonight or was there more to it? Is Rasheed healthy? I kind of thought after last weekend it was Rasheed's spot to lose.

Cael continues to say that 165 is not resolved so not surprised he's still rotating Morellli and Rasheed.
Morelli beat Rasheed at NLO. I wonder if Morelli beats Rasheed in the rooms consistently and so it makes it difficult to hand the job to Rasheed despite Rasheed's point scoring potential and apparently bigger upside. Who knows?

Hey Lemon, go back to your last 5 or so posts, they are all negative, if you are not adding value to the thread, please don't post
Um ok,
Can't see him at 197
Bye morelli
Are you for these guys?
Tom, thank you for your posts!

Wait ...wait...wait....3 pages of posts says bj Clagon should have slain the pain monster.
Were they wrong to make a big deal of a single match?
Yes, I was rooting for Wilson. This is the best result for PSU. No debate.
Love me some Cutch and I want him to have a spot in the coming years, but his length (or lackthereof) scares me. He could get McIntosh'd without having his talent level to make up for it.
McIntosh is McIntosh. He's awesome... just hate that he's made a career at 197. I'm not too worried about him, though.

Monster indeed. Good call!
Zain got the Ridge Riley award for majoring the #5 ranked wrestler.
Well done ZPain!
=====
In addition - Matt McCutcheon gets major kudos for his very gutsy action at the end of the 3rd period, to seal the win against his #5 ranked opponent.
Matt made a ballsy decision to let his guy go, giving up the tie, with about 15 seconds left. Then he came on like a bull and kept working, to get the advantage for the TD, with his opponent on his back.
Crowd exploded with the win!!!!
Another second or two in the match would have given him near fall points to boot. Verrry impressive. Fun to watch.
Matt's match displayed the heart and soul of this team of "never say die" marauders.

I also didn't realize that "adding value" was limited to homerism. I had both positive and negative things to say. My favorite wrestlers and coaches are Nittany Lions. Y'all want a bunch of unbearable Tbar homers? Better get the ban hammer ready.
I asked previously....what did you mean in this post about Nico? and why?
I'm all for free speech. Let's be real here, though, there's a huge gap between homerism and your negativity. More importantly, your antagonistic posts on other team's boards help give PSU posters a bad name. Gotta call it as I see it.
