Team reaction to N. Lee fall
- Thread starter PSUisawesome
- Start date
I think Cael is sitting at the table to the right above the green circle. Gets up and walks aways after the pin. Great support from his team!
LP, you are making these threads like Xmas morning! Every time I wake up, I don’t know what I will find! Keep up the good work, my man!
That's awesome. LOVE how excited Cenzo was for his teammate.
I honestly feel badly for Jered. Injuries suck. At the same time, I think that if Nick Lee and his family wanted him to go this year, it would have been nearly impossible to keep the shirt on after his performance at The Scuffle.

Surprising more guys don't board the cruiseliner. Way too much camaraderie and support and smiling and f**.
Seriously, about the only way to improve this (other than it being the NCAA finals) would be Cenzo wearing a bathrobe.
This team's chemistry is a factor in their performance. Another is the internal competition.
Everyone loves Pie.
I hope they remember these tasty morsels when they reflexively want to be anti-Pie
Pie has been known to be inconsistent.
Sometime you get the center filling. With ice cream.
Other times you’re left with a few crumbs.
Scuffle Pie has been Grandma’s homemade Apple, heated with extra vanilla ice cream. Quite yummy.
Yeah, but 'tis a shame the team has no pin chain. Sad.
That's must feel pretty cool to have several national and world champions cheering for you, as a true freshman.
The kids on Cael's teams really seem to care about each other, and for me, it makes them even more enjoyable to watch and root for.
Never had a problem with the posters on here - well except for Vodka and his whining. But as far as PSU folks go, I like reading all posts, even when I may not agree...
You can't see it but Nolf covers his face with his hands and doesn't take them down. It's an extremely intense reaction from an extremely intense kid.
The guy right behind Cenzo/Zain looks like he wants to tell them down in front, but he also wants to keep his limbs.
Was that a Cenzo Special or another secret move?

It's the same double overs Mark used during the Keystone Classic final just to the opposite side under way more intense circumstances.
Here's a good view of the sequence (helps to blow up to full screen). You can see a bunch of PSUers like Dan Monthly(sp), Casey and Wreck Hall™ all the way to the left....

lol at ScufflePie.
Just rewatched match to try and figure out how Lee was able to stick Alber so cleanly. It seemed like Alber was the aggressor, looking body lock and actually being in pretty good position at the time he hooks his left leg to Lee's right. But Lee knew what Alber was trying to do and didn't hesitate to go double-overs. So both guys are basically in a roughly equivalent spot. The key is that Lee is more ready for the throw that Alber is, and as you can almost see in the crappy still frame screenshot below, his left foot is planted and he's pushing off. Alber's right foot isn't planted. So Lee managed to throw Alber a split second before Alber was prepared to throw Lee.

Thinking about it, the sequence is similar to how Cenzo beat IMar: IMar initiated the inside trip but Cenzo immediately recognized it and executed it from a more leveraged place.
The throw Alber attempted involves exploding up and thru. As Alber stood, Lee anticipated and dropped his hips below Alber's + sank the leg.
At least that's what I saw on my office "4G" super slo mo.
Phenomenal timing, and some grapefruit sized cojones.
Well I'm Leeeeee, Lee falling, I'm a Lee falling , I'm Lee falling!
I don't see where Lee even dropped his hips. Look at screenshot above, if anything Lee might be even a bit higher than Alber at the beginning of the sequence. I think he was just faster than Alber, who probably didn't expect Lee to have the audacity/cojones.
Agreed. IMar and Alber each initiated an outside trip, and both of them had their tripping foot swept away from them, unexpectedly, by the counter inside trip.
I think it did not matter that Lee was not lower. What mattered was that Lee had an angle, and, as you said, Lee was ready to go first. Lee was prepared to throw earlier and in a direction that is sideways to Alber. Alber had only one foot planted (right foot), in a leg-orientation in which he could be strong going upward/backward but not sideways. Lee essentially swept Alber's (left) foot in mid-air sideways with respect to Alber, and Alber, just when he was supposed to push down on his planted (right) foot to arch and elevate for his own throw, instead had to hop his planted (right) foot to try to regain stability, but it was not enough.

The word "Fun" is nowhere in your post!
If I were still wrestling, I would form a hypothesis for exploration, from the Cenzo and Lee counter trips. I would play with the idea that if I feel my opponent trying to outside-trip me, I would try to sweep that tripping foot to destroy my opponent's position, because that tripping foot will likely be unweighted and susceptible to being swept. (Maybe this is a well-known thing; I wouldn't know--I only wrestled about 3 years and LOVED it but never got very good.)
In other words, if I'm initiating my own trip, maybe it would be unlikely for me to be able to sweep the guy's leg that I'm tripping, because that leg might be weighted a decent amount. However, if I'm making a counter-trip, then not only would I try to trip the other guy's tripping leg, but I would try to sweep it since it's likely to be very lightly weighted or unweighted.
did the ref incorrectly signal for TD 2 for Alber?I think it did not matter that Lee was not lower. What mattered was that Lee had an angle, and, as you said, Lee was ready to go first.

I don’t live anywhere near an Eat’n Park anymore, but I used to always get the apple pie with cinnamon ice cream. These clips have been that good.Pie has been known to be inconsistent.

He did, good catch! So he is why I almost had a heart attack after seeing the score on FloArena change to 6-5 Albers!
That dude does have a uni sweatshirt on. Explains why he looks less than pleased haha.
If I were still wrestling I would just try and stay away from all animals wearing blue with a white stripe.
If I were still wrestling and safely locked away from the blue animals with the white stripe I might talk some Twitter smack though.
