So, the guy that the Hawkeye fans rag on constantly is the only guy that made the finals. How ironic.
PSU is 5-5 in the finals tonight. 285 will be their toughest challenge, as Kerk is a clear underdog.
ESPN Interviewer: “You’re the lone Hawkeye” 
Great win for Dean. Know the seed difference, but he also wrestled like it.
Glad we're getting to see Kerk/Steveson. Know what the outcome should be, but as Byers just said, a fun opportunity for the Nittany Lion anyway.

No shame in Kerk's loss. GS is a monster and Kerk gave him a battle til the end.
285 Semis: #4 seed Greg Kerkvliet vs. #1 seed Gable Steveson (Minnesota) (I'll use GS)

Kerk kind of reaches, nothing. GS sort of reaches, nothing. GS shoots, nothing. GS shoots but Kerk kicks away from the low single. Kerk min on a single, he tries to elevate it, but GS kicks it out and they are OOB with 1:33 left. GS in on a single and gets behind for the TD, 0-2. Kerk hits a roll and he's out, 1-2. End.

Kerk takes bottom he tries to sit out then sort of stands but returned. Kerk sits out, nothing. Now Kerk is flattened with a tight waist. Kerk to his feet but they are OOB with 1:04 left.

GS takes bottom. GS to his feet, and he's out in 8 sec, 2-3. RT is 1:14 for GS. GS shoots, GS counters and gets a low single, but GS spins around and grabs an ankle, and a stalemate with 1:16. Kerk reaches, nothing. 45 sec left. Kerk with a shot, but GS counters and spins around and gets the TD, 2-5. Stall warning just before the TD on GS. Kerk shoots and again slips and GS spins behind and gets the TD, 2-7. With RT, it's a 3-8 DEC for Gable Steveson. I'm not sure where the 3rd point came from for Kerk -- may have been 2 stall calls.

PSU under Cael is 45-5 in the NCAA semis. Like I said in the Session 3 thread, their record in the semis under Cael is obscene (in a good way).
45-5 in Semifinal bouts under Cael! That's what we do! LOL
If you wanna win B1G titles go to Iowa, Michigan or O$U. If you wanna win Natties come to Penn State!

wow, what a wild end in TB-2 between Schultz and Wood. That was insane.
Those last 15 seconds were the most active I've seen Jordan Wood in ... I can't remember

Hopefully Kerk can wrestle back and take third place in Session 5. If he does that and some other things fall right, PSU can clinch before Session 6.
I want to see how Schultz does against GS, but the path will be a lot easier without GS in the way.

Willie keeps tweeting about it, but the data is behind the Rokfin paywall.
True, but in football espn considers that a Michigan win.
So if PSU gets wins from Carr, Hamitti, Kem, and Kerk can they clinch before the evening session?
