PSU vs Iowa predictions?

Aaron throwing some shade at how officials are not being consistent on stalling calls and hands to the face calls (no doubt in reference to his Maryland opponent as it applies to hands to the face ). He also mentioned (my paraphrase) that officials are lax to call stalling against Penn State's opponents for lack of action because they know Penn State wrestlers make up for the lack of action by their high activity levels. He believes the way matches are officiated in regard to being active needs to change.

totally agree and they should start calling stalling when guys keep grabbing fingers since that is not wrestling

Was Brands being coy? We will see Arnold in the future but I can’t say when. Hmmm . . .
Not listed in Iowa's lineup.

My prediction for the match is that we get Angel Rivera as the ref and both sides are not happy. He must be doing a decent job as he gets all the hi profile matches and both sides seem to hate the job he does.
 
I'm predicting CHA will be quieter on Friday night than when Bo Nickal pinned Sammy Brooks with a spladle. Got your token Hawkeye fan in the white T calling for a Nickal stall when he has Brooks so tight all he can do is wiggle his feet.

Yeah, 184 is also a duck. He called Starocci overrated. He said he was coming for Starocci. He said he would beat Starocci and win NCAAs at 174 this year. It's pretty weak to not even show up.
He had dreams and big plans but just couldn’t beat Kennedy in order to implement them. Maybe he’ll get another shot at being the man.

Personally, I'd be surprised if we didn't see Arnold, but I'm expecting 184.
I really hope that Barraclough makes the trip. If Arnold weighs in at 184 (i.e. not 174 at all), then Cael can use Barraclough against PK and let C-Star go duck hunting anyway.

Did you talk to Pappa Arnold yet? I think it's a case of you calling out his boy and he just can't help himself and needs to inform you that Gabe isnt 100 percent and won't wrestle.
 
I like that one of these involved Aaron Brooks losing to Glazier. I like Glazier, but that's a pretty tough ask...

Look, like everyone else here, I have a soft spot for Glazier. Everyone loves a gritty room guy stepping in and winning big matches. It makes it all that much better that he was central to AJ's humiliating behavior along the way. With that said, it's not happening. Not in a million years.

Still can’t see disrespecting a scrapper’s (Kennedy) well-earned starting spot to satisfy an HS boast, but maybe Carter’s OSU fadeout plays in. If TB’s fine dissing Patrick and feels Gabe can outperform PK and Welsh, we may see the vision quest. And if Carter fades again, stall points will come cheap (think BOGO).
Still lean toward Gabe at 184, the better chance for a Hawk win. Regardless, since it’s TB’s call, not Gabe’s, I won’t blame the kid if the bout doesn’t happen.
50 some hours and counting . . . inhaler and smelling salts ready, epinephrine shot on deck.

Maybe he won the Avoid Carter Wrestle-Off.

Wait, that's Ohio State. Never mind.
