PSU vs. Penn Discussion Thread

[Taps mic]
Is this thing on?

Less than 30 mins from showtime. Gonna try to scarf down some dinner before firing up the ESPN+. Doubt I can do much PBP, so if there are any takers, please jump right in . . .

And sorry, Clay, if you were planning to set this up and I just stepped on your toes . . .

Sorry man, great minds and all . . . 🍻

 

[Fink]

No RBY or AB.

 

[slushhead]

Meredith filling in at 133. Donovan Ball in at 184.

 

[Ja1339]

Cael also said Kerk was a bit under the weather.

 

[backdrft76]

Cael said they're working on getting Gabe, errr Max, Dean a 3rd year back. (guessing that was a joke)

Also said Edsell is wrestling down from his natural weight class at 174 and Beau is wrestling up.

 

[pish69]

I love how the announcer keeps saying PSU having a “down” year

 

[McScoreley]

Sounds like Nick Lee is good to go though!

 

[McScoreley]

Cael said they're working on getting Gabe, errr Max, Dean a 3rd year back. Bye bye Beard??

Also said Edsell is wrestling down from his natural weight class at 174 and Beau is wrestling up.

A 3rd year back? How? I thought he had this year and next. He wrestled 2 NCAAs already.

I thought that was a joke — I think Byers misspoke and referred to Max as Gabe, and Cael decided to have some fun with it by saying they were trying to get “Gabe” more eligibility.

 

[McScoreley]

They keep saying it's Jake Campbell but I think that's Shunk

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

Thank you for starting this. Somehow despite writing the preview I thought it was a 7:30 start.

Thanks, I'll revise. I missed the joke.

Their announcers are having a down year. It's Shunk.

 

[backdrft76]

Shunk

The pregame show Cael and JB were discussing Shunk. So I'd go with Shunk here.

With the lineup absences, starting to think Penn probably wins this dual.

Rediculous

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

If teams are going to continue to do this, as everyone has done across the country this year, then I may have to chance my stance on going to a one-semester sport.

 

[RB-Old]

According to these announcers just putting on a PSU singlet makes you a favorite in every bout.

 

[royboy]

Yikes enough guys out to actually have a close team result?

 

[Treelion66]

Penn State will need bonus in the back end for sure.

Delete your account.

 

[McScoreley]

If Beau takes 149 then I think we still win.

 

[Arm spin]

Match might be a tie with PSU winning on criteria E). of having the most cry babies whining about their own line up

If you’re sick, you’re sick. What have we continued to do?

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

Just not smart wrestling there from Meredith. No clue what he’s doing there.

Thought about going for some miracle pin rather than saving the bonus point lol

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

If you’re sick, you’re sick. What have we continued to do?

And if it turns out they’re sick then fine, but across the country more and more teams are treating the first semester like the preseason and resting wrestlers in duals.

 

[pish69]

horrible there by Meredith

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Good Lord, the woes at 125 continue until further notice.

It’s truly brutal

Sometimes I envision the posters on this board of being a bunch of old ladies in a nursing home after bingo typing away on iPads. Take some chill pills y’all

We've become spoiled over the years with extremely high expectations. It doesn't help that Iowa is now the team to beat.

 

[CSauertiegPSU]

Sure looks like the flu might have caught Nick as well…
