Anyone doing pbp?

I'd rather not as there's a few football games I'd like to watch but will if I'm the last resort.

The matchup I’m looking forward to is Dube v. Shepherd. Dube is from 40 minutes west of my hometown. Shepherd is a future PSU guy so it’s kinda split my allegiances. My gut says Shepherd avenges his Fargo loss.

The craziest thing about Dube is that he didn’t start wrestling until 6th or 7th grade
Dube is tough he did BJJ as a kid his dad has a gym in Erie.

I see that this is during the Penn State football game. As most know, I'm not a Penn State fan so I'll do pbp if wanted until 8pm eastern when the FAU game starts. The Penn State game should be close to over by then so someone else can pick it up.
FAU. Florida Atlantic?

Wish I could pick up for you but will be locked into football tomorrow.

Huh. That's not something you come across often.
Both schools have a lot of my money.

Coastal has one of the best college baseball stadiums in the country. Open seating beach chairs line the berm past 1st and 3rd and the outfield. Just a great experience and a really competitive team. Food and beverages are inexpensive but not free like at the football games.

FAU has my favorite stadium in football. Only stadium from which you can see the Atlantic. Just wish the game day experience had fans and a good team. The few years of Kiffin were really fun.

He is also a PA kid, just goes to school in Ohio

Mangano looked great! Anderson has had a really great summer and Mangano hasn’t competed in a bit so I didn’t know what to expect. His defense, length, and scrambling ability are high level. Nice win and he’s the new #1 at 138. Score was 8-4. Mangano with 2 tds both coming from leg attacks to a cradle
Seems like Anderson is a 141 and Mangano could be a 157 eventually he has the frame for it

Agreed. He’s super long. Has the frame to put on some weight. Would probably be better roster wise if he stays smaller though

Who the heck listed O’Farrell at 5’9”🤣? He moves well, but unfair or not, I’m always a little dubious of upperweights with the Gabe Arnold/Zack Ryder build.

edit: definitely gets to legs better than either, though .

I love O’Farrill. I know his length and height might limit his upside at the college level but the kid is fearless and just gets after it. I really hope he comes to PSU like most think.

This match against Aquila was awesome. Just constant forward pressure and nonstop attacks. He wins by major 17-8

Big match up now between Burnett and Kenny. Should be good

Burnettt on fire. Just putting it on Kenny. He seems to have separated himself from the rest of the guys at his weight. Burnett up 12-1 in the second! Burnett wins 13-1. Absolute beatdown. 3tds, 2 nearfall, an escape, and riding time. Iowa fans must be thrilled after that match
