MLB 51 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I think I'd rather forfeit 125 than have to watch Reno get schooled liked he did tonight by an unranked guy. 1 Quote Link to comment

Lots of great matches. I think Michigan's ability to get bonus points in a couple spots will ultimately be the deciding factor. Sadly, I think UM wins 20-12. Pretty accurate. Even if Labs had won, we still lose 17-16. 2 Quote Link to comment
Xmas32 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Seems like it was a pretty good atmosphere, wish NU was able to pull it out. 125--Medley TF'd Reno out at the Cliff Keen and this time was no different. Clear example of a true frosh going up against a Senior in terms of physicality. I have no doubt that Reno is talented, he just needs more time in the weight room. 133--Pretty nice showing out of Serrano. Ragusin is a bottom podium AA guy and Serrano hung in there. It's great that he's getting these reps against top tier competition and it will serve him well in the future. 141--Great match by Red against a really tough guy in Micic. Red always seems to wrestle his best when the stakes are highest. Great job controlling the match and wrestling smart. Red gets an awesome matchup hopefully this weekend against Nick Lee from PSU. 149--Nice job by Ridge getting the bonus points against a scrappy kid that was in there to compete. Ridge's ability to ride up top is going to keep him in every single match. He's going to be a really tough out. 157--I just wish Robb was more aggressive on his feet as it seems like everytime he shoots he scores. Close match and I think he had the two there in SV although it was tight. Not a great shot at the end that allowed Lewan to score. 165--Wow, I did not see Bubba getting the win there. Great job getting the TD at the end. He'll have a good test against Berge of PSU this weekend who is a wrestler of similar caliber plus he's got some old man savviness to him. 174--Really meh performance out of Labs. Massa really pushed him around the entire match and looked like he really wanted the win. Labs better shake off the cobwebs because he's got a freaking beast on Sunday potentially in Starocci. 184--You know, I thought Venz looked pretty good. He was aggressive, had some great shots, it's just Amine is really freaking good and really freaking hard to score on. 197--Outstanding match out of Schultz, he was tough, pushed the pace and finished his shots against a really tough guy in Brucki who is a 2x AA. Side note, Brucki is carved out of freaking granite. If Schultz wrestles like this, he's got a great shot at knocking off Dean on Sunday. 285--I've been really pleased with how Lance his wrestled this year, he hung right in there with Parris, slowed down the match and eventually just got beat because Parris is a level above. He's got a good test against Kerkvilet of PSU this weekend who is another top tier guy. Lance is a stone cold real shot to AA this year and I think he gets it done. 9 hours ago, MLB 51 said: Pretty accurate. Even if Labs had won, we still lose 17-16. 3 Quote Link to comment
Xmas32 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Big dual here in about 90 minutes! Let's go Skers! Found a really nice preview for the dual on a PSU site, prediction seems reasonable. https://www.blackshoediaries.com/2022/2/5/22915151/penn-state-wrestling-preview-no-1-vs-no-12-nebraska-lovett-labriola-venz-rby-kerkvliet-berge-brooks I'll base my thoughts on what the author posted in terms of the projected lineup for PSU. 125--PSU by TF 133--PSU WBF 141--PSU by dec, I think Red can keep it close although he and Nick Lee know each other extremely well 149--NU by dec 157--Robb by MD, he needs to come out shooting early and often 165--If Berge wrestled for PSU, he wins by dec, if not Wilson by dec 174--Labs should hammer Manville by MD. Manville hasn't wrestled much folkstyle in the past few years. If Starocci goes, PSU by dec 184--Brooks is on another level. PSU by MD 197--Schultz gets it done. NU by dec HWT--I think Lance keeps it close and is able to use his physicality to really slow down the match. Ultimately, Kerkvilet is pretty slippery and he's able to get a few TDs and ends up winning like 6-2. PSU by dec. Nebraska makes a really game effort and keeps it close to the end.

PSU 21 Nebraska 17 I highly doubt 133 will be bonus. That will be tight match! Bubba wilson can certainly beat berge as well!! 1 Quote Link to comment

He'll do damage in big 10s Sure he will, but he isn't beating either of the top 2 at 133. I don't mind a little optimism, but Xmas32 has been pretty spot on with every prediction. 2 Quote Link to comment
