D3UC157 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 What have been some of the worst calls/non-calls of the tourney thus far? Also, what about any head-scratching decisions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elevator Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 missed locked hands in Davis match - not sure it was egregious but suprised no brick was deployed! I think the officiating has been pretty solid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VakAttack Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 In the arena, the one that got the most vocal reaction was the fastest stalemate call I've ever seen in Fix-Frost. And the general beduddlement at Mekhi's "plan", which appears to have been 1. Head fake repeatedly, but don't shoot. 2. I repeat, DO NOT SHOOT. 3. ??? 4. Points? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That stalemate as super shady - Frost was advancing his position. Forgot about that one 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nittany Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 No consistency with the backing out stall call. This rule needs to go. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCMO2 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) Didn't think Frost was advancing his position. And if the ref let it keep going then people would be complaining because he let it go too long and wasted valuable time in the 3rd OT.

forkemaz Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 The challenge of the challenge that helped ngaou advance against chlebov. Is it even legal to challenge a challenge or is that some penn st special type shit? Also take note Davis, when you aren't getting the call let your coaches do the crying and you just wrestle.

ugarles Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Thought the stall call against Shapiro in the third period against Cardenas was incredibly premature. It cost him, in the end because with a 3-1 lead and Cardenas holding RT a second stall call would lead to OT. Shapiro's attempt at a shot led to the go-behind that gave Cardenas the win. I think he survives getting his bell rung if he doesn't have the stall looming over him. (Especially when Cardenas spent the entire second period just laying on top of him without trying to turn or getting a stall on top though that also would have been a tetchy stall call). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHROMEBIRD Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 I was watching with the sound off for a few stretches and was wondering wtf the officials were doing letting Shapiro leave and then come back to the match, before I realized it was for concussion protocol. Hopefully he's all right. I hate to see someone go out like that, esp someone as young and talented as Shapiro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, he just got beat by a super physical wrestler. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinnacle Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 7 hours ago, flyingcement said: The no takedown call on for Kal Miler vs Bartlett The no stalling call against Fix Well, they finally called it and then they took it away. The pin that got wiped out. Army pins a guy like Mehki and it gets stonewashed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TampaRyley Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Seeing a pin get overturned is one of the most egregious decisions I’ve seen. The video of it doesn’t help. At the very least it should’ve been a takedown and backs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this were a concussion, he (a) wouldn't have continued, and (b) be out of the tournament. He continued the match and continued the tournament. He got beat by the better wrestler.

Cardenas beat him twice this year. Let's give a tiny bit of credit, that's all I'm saying. The excuses after every Shapiro loss are just a bit much.
