ESPN doing everything they can to not show an Iowa match.
Can you blame them after the horrible TV showings we put on this year. We've got to earn wanting to be seen on TV which it appears we've done so far tonight. We own it for putting an ugly product on the mats this year. I'm just grateful that we're putting it together when it matters. Let's keep it rolling!!

They will show the Block match because he’s seeded to lose. Let’s go Ryder !!!!
Nailed it

I didn't say it was the first year they've done this; please don't be like Corby and MSU and imply what you think someone said/meant. I was being real...we've not put a good product on the mat this year; it's been boring as f*ck. So why would they show us? Again, glad we're showing up and hope we keep rolling!!

Teams need to start having their wrestlers stall the sh** out of their matches with Penn State and not give up pins. Do everything they can to avoid tech falls as well. Get dirty if they have to, but they need to start pulling their weight to minimize their point-scoring as much as possible.
I think it was Tim Johnson who this morning said all the other teams don’t want PSU to slide at all, want them to keep up what they are doing to see it they can rise up past them. WTF. Doesn’t he understand if they can continue what they are doing, mainly with recruiting, nobody will be able to rise past them ever. What a stupid statement.

You said they aren’t showing us because the product was bad this year, not arguing that. Simply stating, that has nothing to do with them not showing Iowa wrestlers because they do it every year 🤷‍♂️

They called a TD for Joy (I didn't think it was) and then gave Ryder a reversal (should have been a TD). They then wouldn't call an escape even though Ryder completely released him and separated from him. The match ended 10-3.
Thanks. Sounds like too little too late.

Ok, my bad. I can't argue with that. I just hope our product improves these next few years. Our guys have the ability; aside from a couple, they just don't get excited and start shooting until they're down in the 3rd.
