The corn rows are such a try hard moveI don't like that guy.

Here's how @Michnit put it the other day:Before our boys start can somebody remind me as to what happened between Suriano and PSU?
RBY understands DeSanto so well. RBY stays back and doesn't make mistakes, all the while DeSanto wears himself out. Then when DeSanto is vulnerable he shoots and wins. Perfectly played!
That's a shameRagusin and Micic lost.
PSU max is 161. UM is 155.Ragusin and Micic lost.
@Tom McAndrew Watching on ESPN, and now Byers is slightly behind the TV. Now, THAT, is back to normal.
a 3-2 decision that felt like a dominant match.141 Semis: #1 seed Nick Lee vs. #4 seed Real Woods (Stanford)
Hmm, Byers says Real Woods has yet to give up a point at this year's NCAAs. I think that streak is about to end.
Per 1
Woods tries a shug-bye, nothing. Lee sort of shoots, nothing. Lee reaches, nothing. Lee reaches, nothing. Lee in on a single, to a double, and gets the TD on the edge, and OOB with 1:01 left, 2-0. Woods sits out, Lee stays with him. Woods to his feet, and then turns in for the esc, 2-1. 30 sec left. Lee reaches,nonting, then Woods shoots, and Lee counters but the buzzer. End RT @ 27 sec for Nick
Per 2
Woods defers, and Nick takes bottom. He hits a roll and then to his feet, then tripped down and back up and turns and he's out, 3-1. OOB with 1:32 left. Lee reaches, nothing. Woods seems to be frustrating Nick by controlling his head. Lee shoots, nothing, but a stall warning on Wood. End. RT @ 17 sec for Nick
Per 3
Woods takes bottom. Blood stoppage for Nick. Woods sits out, to his feet, then tripped down. Woods sits out again and to his feet, and tripped back down. Lee working for a cradle or something, but doesn't get it, and then Woods to his feet for the esc, 3-2. Damn, RT @ 59 sec for Nick. 1 min left. Lee sort of shoots, but blocked. Woods looks tired, and just like that he reaches. 20 sec left. Wood reaches, nothing. Wood shots wildly, and there's the buzzer. Lee back to the finals with a 3-2 DEC
Agreed. It never felt like Lee was in peril. This other semi is fantastic.a 3-2 decision that felt like a dominant match.

Well said. Agree.RBY is so gracious and respectful of his opponent when interviewed after the match. That is a quality I would like to be better at. We could all learn from him.
There are some guys to cheer for in the meantime. Monday @ 157 and O'Toole @ 165. Both are up against lower seeded Michigan wrestlers and a couple losses by the bad guys would be huge. Even one loss would be awesome.Now, the long wait to 174 begins. And I don't really mean for us. I mean for our dog, who doesn't understand why the peanut butter bone I brought down so she leaves me alone from 174-285 isn't hers yet.
Glad you're here now!I'm going to take this opportunity to confess my sins...
I'm 51 years old and have only started watching wrestling regularly for the past few years. I am ashamed and disappointed that I haven't gotten into this sport much earlier. I wish I got my son into this sport. But he chose football and baseball. I don't know everything I'm watching - I still can't tell you how the hell Lee pinned his opponent earlier today - but I'm learning. The whole team and individual concept is pretty crazy. I forget who the wrestler was, but it was a HWT going against Snyder of OSU and I remember cheering that he didn't lose by bonus points, which preserved the team win. I've never cheered for a PSU athlete who was losing.
Wrestling is a great sport and I regret not paying attention to it decades ago. Better late than never, I guess..
