Day 2 Session 3 Thread

[Squatch96]

When is the last time we had 9 guys in the RD of 12?

2010? Think Beatty lost in the blood round

Gotta feel good for GA Gabe Arnold. Clearly undersized, out muscled, but more heart than secretariat. Been taking it in the chin and being an awesome teammate since he came to Iowa. One more Gabe, get your name on the wall.

And 2 more years ahead. Go get it tonight Gabe.

 

[CHILLER]

You stalled your way into a shower with Sandusky and when he was done Starocci checked your oil. Go away!!!!!

50 years from now you will still be fantising about Sandusky. Get a life.

He didn’t do it on purpose, but Gabe Arnold is using this tournament to become a bit of a fan favorite. Playing with house money, giving up a length and weight advantage every round and keeps finding ways of winning.

Love his heart. Has to be a bit of a confidence builder for him as well. I think he needed that.

 

[funkisfun10]

We have more wrestlers still going than Penn State. Just an FYI

Congrats!

 

[sstark46]

This Ryder match has been going on for like an hour lol

A table worker had a medical emergency.

Again, you continue to show you have NO CLUE. The 3 guys they lost to have a combined record of 66-1. They lost 2-1 in 10 minutes of wrestling. 5-3 and 4-1. It sucks that the Iowa guys aren't the ones that combine to be 66-1, but Peterson wrestled Luke WAY BETTER than he did earlier this season, Ayala lost a 1 takedown match and so did Bailey. If you can't see how much better they are wrestling than the regular season, you either are blind, lack basicl levels of comprehension or have an agenda and willfully choose to ignore the truth....

be even better if we would take shots…maybe even a take down. I can remember when other teams used to attempt to keep the score close and try to sneak one in at the end. Seems things have turned around.

As Jackie Moon would say, “Fourth Place!!!!” IYKYK

 

[Ptguard5]

LOL, I wouldn't have even posted that if I wasn't called out by the ignorant "peaking" comment. Look, they all lost to better wrestlers. But, that doesn't mean they didn't wrestle to the best of their abilities against superior opponents.

Come on guys, its not like ANY of them got whooped....

nope, they went out there and ‘kept it close”.

 

[TNTwrestle]

A table worker had a medical emergency.

What I want to know about that whole thing was the score. When they shut the mat down, the scoreboard on Matcast said 6-3 Bullock. When they came back and restarted, it was 1-1. Was it the scoreboard operator that had the emergency, and he was pushing buttons accidently, or to get attention to his problem? It was weird. Then it looked like Bullock had the go-ahead TD, but it got waived off or challenged. The next time I looked it was 1-1 in SV.

We might not agree on everything. But that reference was pretty damn good!

 

[Frydaze]

Helluva performance today! Mikey looks great, hope he takes out Blaze! Never count Ferrari out!

Blood round is all guts! Let's get 9 AA!

Brands big extension around the corner!

 

[Ptguard5]

How was that not a takedown for Caliendo? Why did he stop it

 

[BringBackBradBanks]

ELE. Everybody Love Everybody.

 

[MSU158]

why didn’t brands question it…saving the brick for the finals?

3D Chess!! Peaking!!!

 

[Ptguard5]

Peaking, peaking, peaking, peaking!!!

taking shots and scoring take downs

 

[CHILLER]

You stalled your way into a shower with Sandusky and when he was done Starocci checked your oil. Go away!!!!!

Think about it. Do you have a brain ? Really think about what you are saying ?

Taylor’s boys having a very “Iowa like” tournament. Hate to see it.

They got better.

 

[huntinghawk]

Can't be happy for Mikey PK or Angelo? There's a pretty decent shot we will also have 5 guys in the bloodround tonight for a chance for 8 all Americans not saying thats gonna happen but thats a pretty decent year

He's a Penn State troll

 

[Squatch96]

He's a Penn State troll

My bad thanks still new to the cesspool

 

[AndreTheHawk]

When was the last time we didn’t have a semi-finalist in the lowest five weights?!? Has that ever happened under Brands??

Crazy that lightweight U had all their semifinalists 165-184. Unbelievable really.

Leo deluca should hopefully get us back in that conversation.

He's hopefully finding out that takedowns win you matches. Nice work Gabe!
