Like I said before, maybe if your coaches didn't grind the team to dust during practice, you wouldn't have to wrestle a backup 165 against Aaron Brooks.
Wrestling: Penn State vs. Iowa Match Thread
- Thread starter slushhead
- Start date
I thought Carter lost it when he changed his walkout song from the Halloween theme lol
Oh Good Lord, using this type of "dual" bullshit wrestling to forecast how PSU and Iowa will fair in Tournaments is ridiculous. Brands wrestles like that (which he will, because that's all that little beatch has) at Nationals, he isn't doing shit at the NCAA Tournament.
he’s been doing that his whole career. not everything is a personal attack
You attend Iowa practices?
I am mostly talking about the last 30 minutes or so, give or take.
I’m not the morality police or anything. I just don’t think it represents us well.
Trust me, I love ribbing the guys over at HR/GIA. @johnstownsteel will attest to this. Maybe it’s because I’ve followed this thread all week and I understand the delivery of our Iowa fellas here, but I don’t think aggressively shouting them down is the way to go. Especially since a lot of their comments are tongue planted at least partially in cheek.
And Penn State won 23-14, so it shows that match points aren’t everything.

i apologize, combine alcohol and frustration over PSU’s young guns not performing and then brands just playing D for 7 minutes makes me angry.
Watch it he's an expert lmfao. I kinda liked Madden and js they fit in for a while then they went full Iowa fans you know the kind with no grace. Blowhards who can't shut their cockholsters I'll chalk it up to them losing and let it at that lol
Yeah but we had the most guys wearing blue and white singlets so ya know, same-same.
Just commenting on the atmosphere observation. For me, it seemed very subdued. Of course, with so many of the matches being snoozers, understandable.
You and Madden are reasonable posters and provide good banter over here. But you’re never going to get an apology from bushwood. You’re better off screaming at a corn field.
PSU matches are often a bit subdued. The convention at home meets tends to be quiet scrutiny punctuated by outbursts of joy/frustration. But it’s not a constant roar or anything.
At the BJC you get more non-traditional fans (or more fans who can’t get to a Rec hall match, which is still awesome about the larger BJC duals), so you might get a bit more “normal” cheering.
Yes, I would say heat of the moment for some on both sides. Those guys made the week leading up to the match better here all in all.
Also, woods sure has perfected the ankle ride like RBY and CStar. Iowa fans shouldn’t bitch so much when one of their best does it as well
Jeff Byers just said Vespa is going to be wrestling the next few matches for PS. Not sure about what the story is with Steen. Maybe he beats Steen? I dont know. Interesting...
I thought it was pretty funny. Didn’t see it as disrespectful.
No grace? You got nittanychris saying Max sucks, Cobe can roll around a bit but he’s not impressed and Kennedy has no upside. 2 of those 3 won their matches and Cobe was close against a higher ranked opponent. You wanna talk about blowhards.
I like it when he does it though.
Congrats on the win. Lot's of good wrestling out there tonight. Dean and Kerk can ride when they want to. Impressive showing
I'm sure there have been better meets there for atmosphere, but tonight seemed good to me through the TV
Didn't come off great on TV for me because of the type of wrestling. If the casual fan tuned in i don't think they would have thought this was a fun watch given the slow start and sometimes finish for a majority of the matches.
It was a good dual. Lots of matches could have gone either way.
I mean, we have kinda seen what we have with Steen, currently. I, like all of us, hope to see him improve, but unless Vespa is getting tossed around in the room by Gary, it makes sense to put him out there.
Haha! I think I only deserved 2 raccoons.
Side note no coaches challenges. I wish all mats were elevated so you dont see Brands on the mat.
Why not try some relevant facts for a change? The twisted sister logic of taking pride in getting beaten by your on style is beyond pathetic.
Yes it is you are giving excuses. Not our problem you sent out a backup it is what it is.
Challenge flag thrown and, after a lengthy review by the refs, call on the mat stands:
🦝🦝🦝 🙂
