Gilman beats Suriano, PSU down 0-3

 

[bmw199]

Did I hear them correctly that Hall is weighed in and might burn his shirt

 

[bdgan]

Carpenter fought hard but was overmatched. I can't remember the last PSU wrestler with a 1-8 record.

 

[ColinPSU]

Another Friday night, another time I find myself unable to watch the match live. Thanks for the updates as always

we need bonus pts

Here he is!!!!

OFF COMES HALL's REDSHIRT

OFF COMES HALL's REDSHIRT

Did gums call it?

 

[bmw199]

Well that sucked

 

[psu_83_drummer]

That was uninspiring

 

[bmw199]

Bo is on a mission.

 

[psu_83_drummer]

Sammy just got schooled!

 

[PSUisBack2017]

Not a wrestling guy, but flipped it on and saw Nickal get the pin. Amazing what Sanderson has done at PSU

 

[loosey goosey]

Bo

 

[OhioLion]

WOW, flipped over during commercial and watched Nickal's match.

OL

197 looked dancing bears-yawn

Good job, lads.

I think most of those things said on threads like these are pretty much right. PSU has already told me as an alumnus that I am the problem. We bought a hockey team, we have a crooked wrestling program, Sandusky, etc. No shocker there. Why care?

This is the national perception now of PSU and "PSU" is fine with it.

LOL - Watch the PSU coaches come off their chairs, as Bo locks up the Spladle.

 

[BobPSU92]

Were any of the wrestleniks surprised in any way by last night's outcome? As a casual observer, I see it as a very solid win at iowa. Of course, Nickal was outstanding.

Thoughts on Penn State's overall performance?

They be jealous, for many reasons.

Couple of our guys looked a little tired, but it could have been the opposition and environment.
In particulate, Zain was pushed to the limit by Sorensen, who he majored in the finals last year. He looked off.
Nothing else was surprising, to me at least. I didn't expect Hall to win out this year, so his loss is not a big deal to me. Good learning experience that will hopefully Pay dividends in the post season.
Suriano proved he is a contender. IMO needs to be more aggressive earlier in match.
McCutchon should not have needed OT to win his match - I guess that was sort of surprising, but again, it was at Iowa and Matt really wrestled the same as he has al year - he needs to find a way to get that second takedown.

First and foremost, win or lose (mostly lose), they still have to live in Iowa.

Thanks. I appreciate the analysis. Good stuff.

True. No wonder they're bitter.

 

[PSU Soupy]

Impressed with Hvy. Weight. Could have been a good OG or DE in a pinch with the line injuries.

You hear the term dancing bear and I could not imagine a more apt description of Nevills. Heavy, Heavy hands and quick hips and feet. He was a take down machine against IOWA.

He had about 5 take downs the last minute of round 3.....with him being a young gun, along with Hall, along with Bo, Zain, etc....... strong team for a minimum of 2 years with this core.

Very impressed.

 

[BobPSU92]

If I remember correctly, Oklahoma State is #1 and Penn State is #2. Has anyone seen Oklahoma State wrestle this year? How good are they?

Spladle?? We used to call that a cradle. Are they the same or is there something different? Tia

Watching that video, there are students sitting on the floor near the mat. Note the look on their faces when Nickal wins. Priceless.

 

[garw]

Loved the F-bomb from the mullet.

The spladle was perfected and made famous by Wade Schalles. The positioning of the wrestlers and the technique used are what differentiate it from a cradle. I think the name is a mash up of split and cradle. Since it was Schalles' move he could have named it after himself but he opted for "spladle" instead.

When you develop an effective move, you have to expect that people will steal it.

Seeing NashvilleHawk in that thread made me think of our very own NashvilleLion. I imagined the Iowa one as some cheap bucktoothed knockoff.
