  1. I think if he had kept the pace up with Carr not engaging for the last 50 seconds in full, there was a small chance they call the stall. The last thing Carr wanted was a scramble, so it may have been obvious enough.
  2. I can. Can't remember a ref giving a stall call (no matter how obviously deserved) with less than 20 seconds left to affect the outcome of a big match. Let alone a NCAA Final. Football refs will call a penalty in the analogous situation, baseball umps will call a strike or ball, but our refs are way too timid. Smart wrestlers know this.
  3. true, I'm still waiting for a ref with the guts to make the call with less than 20 left in a 1 point match
  4. Yup, never call it when it matters. Like being afraid to call a third strike with two out bottom of the 9th. Amateur hour.
  5. What, are they following parliamentary procedure? This is embarrassing.
  6. Yup. Absurd turning it into a 30 second riding contest.
  7. Hmmm, well truth be told, I only had a soft pretzel, a bag of peanuts and several beers. But the crab nachos looked good!
  8. Yeah, I thought it was pretty crowded, considering 15+ hrs of wrestling with people moving around to different seats, getting food etc. And the arena and concessions were good - local craft beer, crab nachos, along with the usual stuff. Better than it was at Rutgers, IMO.
  9. You have to make him wrestle. Deakin (I know, not everyone is Deakin), just used to ignore his "style" and attack him.
  10. I've never been to a PSU home match, but yesterday felt like it. Large PSU contingent. And for many of them, emphasis on the "large"! The kids do wrestle their ass off though. Messenbrink looks like he could give Keegan and Carr plenty of trouble.
  11. True. But he's not a "dark horse". From Wikipedia: A dark horse is a previously lesser-known person, team or thing that emerges to prominence in a situation, especially in a competition involving multiple rivals,[1]
  12. You are basically describing wrestling as it exists in the rest of the world.
  13. I thought Swain was from Spokane. Hamlin with the best nickname award: The Vermontser!
  14. You got it. I hear Deakin is coming back for a 7th year, and Jake Herbert has eligibility.
