PSU vs Minnesota Dual Thread

Joseph close at the end, but it doesn't go. 4-1 after 2.
Wanzek gets an escape after choosing bottom. Some half-shots. 4-2
 
Wanzek in deep, but Joseph comes over top. Wanzek gets the takedown after what I would have stopped as potentially dangerous. 4-4.
Escape Joseph, as Wanzek lets him up. Crowd starts roaring like they have a shot at this one.
Joseph on a big double leg. SCORES! 7-4. Crowd silences as Joseph rides him out. 15-0 PSU
 
Just as the Minny student announcers were saying "Joseph is gassing", Joseph hits a blast double for 7-4 to seal the match.

Lol.
 
Morelli v Chris Pfarr
Morelli has a front headlock, but can't get it to convert.
Gopher commentators commenting on there were no headlocks in the last match, but it was still a good match, almost condescendingly, like Nolf wouldn't have pinned Short in whatever he possibly wanted to.

Two for Morelli on a single leg.
 
Cenzo still sick or did he eat too many meatballs during Christmas? I'm not judging. I ate around 50 cookies, but he looked gassed again.

Escape Pfarr, 2-1.
Front headlock, again. Nothing.
2-1, after 1. Geno takes bottom, escapes. 3-1
 
Per BTN announcer - "Can't call it a good match with no headlocks......"
 
Upper body ties for Pfarr, but Morelli pummeling well. Geno in on a good single, but gets pulled up. Geno gets a nice TD to end the period 5-1. Scoring with >10secs left. That's great.
 
Geno with huge TD (apparently hit a beautifully timed duck-under) at very end of 2nd to take a 5-1 lead. Geno's offense has really come along compared to last year - always been in great position on his feet, but now a much more dynamic offensive wrestler from his feet.

5-2 after a Pfarr escape.
More over-unders. Pfarr looking to lock. Morelli pushing the pace, but Pfarr's ties slowing him down.

More than once, Morelli has been in on a leg and had his right elbow brought up to the torso, losing his takedown. 5-2, 18-0 PSU
 
Nickal v Steveson
Nickal digging under hooks. Heavy snaps. Bo comes to a bodylock, gets the takedown. 2-0.
 
Nickal has a good ride on. Looked cradle for a minute. Steveson comes up, 2-1. Takedown makes it 4-1. Cradle sends Steveson over. FALL!
