PSU - Nebraska Dual Thread

[LemonPie]

He stalls on top, didn't add anything to his repertoire, looked to be only a half step ahead of Lambert (to my eye), and gave up another frustrating, untimely reversal.

I have little doubt that he will place top 4, but I think I bought into the hype that he was going to finally win a title. Maybe I'm just not impressed due to my own expectations. He's still Nico. He's still got an insane gas tank with crazy flexibility, great defense, and solid offensive skills...

I guess I just thought I was going to see something different. To me, it's like if Zain came out and wrestled the same way he did his freshman year.

I think it's a bit different IMO. Zain was a true freshman who was still learning, Nico had been in the program for 3 years already before his RS and you kind of knew what you were gonna get from him. Zain had a lot more room for improvement given his physical abilities

Someone explain to me how PSU would be better off with Morelli winning tonight?

I'm with you on this. Wasn't rooting "against" him per se but felt like Shakur is clearly the better option.

 

[Brian LB-U]

Cael continues to say that 165 is not resolved so not surprised he's still rotating Morellli and Rasheed.

Listening to this week's coaching show, I kind of figured Morelli would get the start. I suspect it's Rasheed's job going forward, though.

 

[El-Jefe]

Yes, I was rooting for Wilson. This is the best result for PSU. No debate.

I also prefer Rasheed, but that doesn't justify rooting for Morelli to lose. I trust Cael to start the best wrestler at B10s and nationals, whether it's my choice or not, and I want the guys to make his choice difficult by wrestling well.

Weak. Incredibly weak.

I put Lemonhead on ignore after 1 minute tonight, suggest you do the same.

Good advice. This lemon was awfully sour.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

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?

Sorenson beats Andrew Crone 6-3. Then again, Clagon is no Crone

Pesters me for a response, gets one, promptly puts me in ignore.

Bravo, sir. And people say I'm the troll.

 

[WildTurk]

Geez! This lemon guy I tell ya....

Advice I always give people are absolutely certain their position is the correct one. When everyone, or at least pretty much everyone, disagrees with you, maybe it's time to take another look at your position. Not sure why I bother giving that advice as it is pretty much universally ignored by those that are certain they are right about everything. However, I continue to try and hope for the best.

Bo looked really gassed. That is the first I have really seen that.

He kinda did the same against Wisconsin, up 12-2 after 1, won 16-2. I'm not too concerned, but it is something to watch.

Wasn't that the dual that he cut his head in and needed stitches? I thought that played a role?

Possibly. I was at that match (my very first!!) and don't remember that, but i'm getting to that age where some things escape me. I remember Bo with a front headlock in the 2nd period and just dangling his "off" arm. I thought maybe he was baitng his opponent, but he never did anything with it. Definitely possible that he was a little dinged.

That would be the one.
