PSU - Iowa '26 Match Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
He was on 1 knee for most of 2 periods and never shot from that position. That's stalling all day long
He’s at Iowa and Brands insisted that he wrestle the Iowa style
I thoroughly enjoy the assassin coming back into style.
kennedy should be happy they sent Gabe out, I think Levi would have punished Patrick
Felt confident to get out.
More likely to get called for stalling.
And as dumb as he wrestles, AF actually has really good and super quick shots. Better to only face a few seconds rather than 30 seconds.
A couple HWTs who don't have bellies. Nice to see.

Cooter just hanging on like Iowa wrestlers do.
I think this match is the beginning of the end of Brands. 2 total TDs before HWY match. Minus Caliendo, no aggression, just grabbing hands and fingers trying to slow down the pace. Ferrari spending 3 periods on a knee rather than using his strength and quickness to setup shots.
Lmao. Keuter gets a stall call, yet AF went all match.
Cole needs to stop backing up
Big win for Cole! He needed that
Big win for Cole! He needed that
32-3, PSU
The worst ever loss at home by Iowa

Nice win for Mirosola, but he could have easily been hit with another stall call in the last 30 seconds.
Sweet, really sweet. We were THIS close to blanking them. I'll still take 32-3 at Carver.....
Cole!!!
Awesome job. He was the aggressor the majority of the match.
I called an 8-2 blowout. It was worse.
WE ARE!!!

Give Iowa credit. They doubled Rutgers' takedown level. 
Six (oops, 7) stall warnings; 2 takedowns.

In spite of Iowa’s best efforts to keep the score down, they just got the worst a$$ whipping ever in CHA!

That was a very satisfying curb stomping.
Oh so close to a clean sweep for the night. This result is OK too.
I dont have too much of an issue with Cole getting dinged. But it is complete BS compared to what AF got away with.
Cole vs guys within 30 lbs of his weight is entirely different than Cole vs guys who are more than 20 lbs heavier than him
Great win
the fact the refs allow Ferrari to wrestle like that is ridiculous.

Wow. If Cole puts on 10 more pounds of muscle he could win it all. He has trouble with the really heavy athletic guys. Put on 10 more pounds and get to 245 he can be a National Champion.
I thought the ref was pretty good with the stall calls.
