PSU Rutgers Match Thread

Needed only one TD and 17 seconds of RT with rideout. Had him winded. Almost worked.
Gulibon nearly in on a single leg but Ashnault works a stale mate. Gulibon works feverishly for a takedown in the last :30, forces a stall warning but Ashnault wins, 4-1.
Can't fault the effort on that one
Rutgers ahead 6-4

Guliban had a bad first period, but I give him credit for the effort he showed in last 2 periods
Gulibon had a lot of td attempts - just couldnt finish. Vastly better than the big 10 final last year. Jimmy is showing huge heart this year.
close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. But its nice to be the pessimist to your optomist for once.
Jimmy had him tired after the rideout - personally, I think he should have taken the risk and taken down, but water under the bridge. Jimmy had a great Head-Outside Single shot earlier in the match, but lost control of Ashnault's leg. Jimmy could have won that match, but he got a little sloppy with his position twice in 1st period. Ashnault looked very beatable in that match.
Zain scores two first-period takedowns against No. 14 Theobold and he takes a 4-1 leadinto the second, along with a cut on the back of his head. He now has a head wrap like this>
Zain goes off for three more TDs in the second period and leads 11-3 with 1:28 RT into the third
pull the shirt zain going 3 pds in back to back matches

Nolf and No. 16 Van Brill exchange on their feet before Nolf gets the first takedown. Van Brill escapes and then he actually scores a takedown against Nolf
Then Nolf goes off.
Fireman's carry and then a cradle and then a who knows what to call that...smh
Nolf up 15-4 after the first period.
Whoa.

This is the best college ref I've seen in years
LOL. I think the Van Brill take down pi$$ed Nolf off.
Nolf out quick in 2nd 16-4.......TD Nolf......looks like he has cradle locked up again.......4 NF Nolf......it's over 22-4 TF halfway through 2nd.
I'm with you. Can't quite put a finger on it, but just seems like Nolf has something extra and that's no knock on DT
Riding time to Nolf is like Time of Possession is to explosive football offenses.
Greatly overrated since you're built to score in chunks.

Anybody else shocked that Theobold kept trying to ride legs on Zain and was not particularly subtle about trying to get them in. Riding legs on a wrestler of Zain's caliber is suicide.....you could see Zain kind of in a tripod waiting for Theobold to fall to low on his hips then he grabbed his leg side in ripped him to the mat and jumped right over into the head & Shoulder lock (i.e., a textbook Farmer's Roll). Still shocked that Theobold thought that riding strategy was a "good idea" against a guy like Zain - riding legs is high-risk / high-reward, but against a world-class guy like Zain it's mostly just high-risk.....as in "suicide".
