***Big Ten Tournament Session II***

Thank you! I was just giving a cliff notes version of this thread. I'm not sure why that upset everyone.
Probably because they thought you didn't actually mean what you said........

But I appreciate the honesty about Penn State being cheaters and getting away with it.

Now we'll make sure to act accordingly and treat your team and its fanbase accordingly now that you are admitted cheaters.

Well done, for being the whistleblower, PSU fan. :)


P.S. Your football team is in trouble, as well....but not from Iowa, and lol certainly not from the NCAA.


Well..................
Not yet. :cool:

But I don't want to spoil the surprise, as I've already said too much. Bye for now, friend! :)
 
Yeah congrats on having one meaningful wrestler. And thanks for the best guy on your roster last year, he'll definitely help us. Go ahead and leave the real shit to the big boys.

No problem. We recycled Jaydin for Keegan O'Toole. He's the next 4xer and Olympian. Y'all have fun with big bad Mr. Tony and his nasty facial hair.

I haven't seen facial hair that bad since 7th grade. YUCK!
 
I got accused of being a creeper by a couple of dicks for posting Spencer vids. Lol
Thanks for posting! Great shot at being only the fourth four time champion in NCAA HISTORY. I think that's worth being excited about!!
Your welcome, only my timing is off and it interrupted this chain of 'go f*ck yourself' posts to the PSU dude, that is very entertaining and hilarious
 
Exactly! I hear some PSU fans say that even if we lose this year, we should be proud of our teams success over the last decade. That is ridiculous. If Penn State doesn't win it all this year or next year, and then goes on another big run, it won't mean anything. All that matters is the current year, which is what this board has been saying for the past 10 years. Iowa fans never bring up the past, even when being dominated for 10 years. It is this year that matters only. I'll keep trying, but, I fear they will never learn. Perhaps this is why they continue to root for a team at a school that has no one left from an awful scandal that happened several years ago, even though you guys try to be polite and remind them. It's sad.

Man, if only the rest of your fanbase understood it the way you do
 
He's clueless. About college wrestling. About Chicago. But it's really funny. I hope he keeps going.

You live here? What neighborhood? All the Iowans live near the Interstate by the ancient pig farms. Very bizarre, but maybe Mr. Tony can get himself a parcel. That's of course is King Gable grants him some land.

Keep going, you're hilarious. Guy from Missouri who "lives in Lincoln Park" and at 9:30 on a Saturday night is on an Iowa wrestling message board.

****ing hilarious. Keep it coming.
 
Four Hawkeyes Advance to Finals at B1G Championships

PISCATAWAY, New Jersey – The top-ranked University of Iowa wrestling team advanced four Hawkeyes to the finals and sits in first place at the 2020 Big Ten Championships following Saturday night semifinal action at the Rutgers Athletic Center.

Spencer Lee (125), Pat Lugo (149), Alex Marinelli (165), and Michael Kemerer (174) will compete for Big Ten titles Sunday beginning at 2:30 p.m. (CT).

Lee won by 19-3 technical fall and outscored his two opponents Saturday, 35-3. He has outscored his opponents 218-16 this season. Lee, the top seed at 125 pounds, wrestles Purdue’s No. 2 Devin Schroder. He defeated Schroder 17-0 in their previous meeting.

Lugo advanced to his first Big Ten finals with a 4-1 win at 149. The No. 2 seed faces top-seed Sammy Sasso of Ohio State in the finals. Sasso handed Lugo his only loss of the season, a 2-1 overtime decision.


Marinelli is back in the finals for the second straight year as the No. 2 seed. He won by fall in the semis and will face No. 1 Vincenzo Joseph of Penn State in the 165-pound finals. Marinelli defeated Joseph, 9-3, in the 2019 Big Ten finals. Joseph defeated Marinelli, 7-5, in their only meeting this year.

Kemerer returns to the finals for the first time since 2017. The top-seed at 174 won by 21-9 major decision in the semis to earn a meeting with No. 2 Mark Hall of Penn State. Kemerer won their only previous meeting, 11-6.

Five more Hawkeyes are alive on the backside of the bracket. Austin DeSanto (133), Abe Assad (184), and Tony Cassioppi (285) dropped semifinal matches and will compete in the consolation semifinals Sunday morning beginning at 11 a.m. (CT). Max Murin (141) and Jacob Warner (197) both won a pair of matches Saturday afternoon to advance through the consolation round.

All nine of Iowa’s nine wrestlers still competing in the tournament have earned automatic berths to the 2020 NCAA Championships in Minneapolis on March 19-21. Junior Kaleb Young was eliminated from the tournament and is eligible for an at-large berth the national tournament at 157 pounds.

The Hawkeyes are in first place after Session II with 121.5 points. Nebraska, Ohio State, Penn State, and Purdue round out the top five.

QUOTING COACH TOM BRANDS

"Day 2 coming up and I know that Day 2 is really important. We have guys back at the hotel that are relaxing, they are eating. Some guys are maybe working on their weight control a little bit. We've got a heavyweight cooling down that is going to be on the backside of the bracket. That's what's on my mind.

“The other thing is bonus points. Kemerer ended up getting bonus points after he ran into a little adversity. Spencer Lee bonus points. Murin had a major decision, Warner had a fall. So those bonus points continued from this earlier session."

NOTABLES
  • Spencer Lee outscored his opponents 35-3 today, and has outscored his opponents 218-16 this season.
  • Pat Lugo is making his first career appearance in the Big Ten finals.
  • Alex Marinelli is one win shy of his second straight Big Ten title, becoming the first Hawkeye to go back-to-back since Sammy Brooks in 2016-17.
  • Kemerer is back in the conference finals for the second time (2017).

Who are you without money, Missouri fan?.....


P.S. You can't say "an Iowa fan" because Iowa fans > Missouri fans, regardless. Deal with it.
 
I was reading the thread, and I just wanted to congratulate you guys on your nice lead. The fact that you did it while the refs were cheating for Penn State at all times and out to get Iowa as usual is even more reason to celebrate.

The good news for you guys is that your guys who won in head to head match-ups in the past will definitely continue to widen the gap, while those that lost will definitely win this time around, which I learned was fact from this thread.

Again, it's not only impressive that you are going to win this thing, but, to do so while the referees are always cheating for Penn State is even more impressive. Not to mention the way the Penn State guys cheat by getting paid money and doing steroids. Honestly, you guys getting it done despite all of this is a joy to watch.
Thank you for recognizing this. Don’t beat yourself up, you guys have a nice little program, despite all this. Kudos to you for standing up for what’s right.
 
My friend says they are always amazed at how much he’s able to lose in a workout. He was know for dropping 7-10 lbs at a time. My guess is that’s gotten harder and he’s struggling now. Hate to see it. He’s a good kid.
It's nothing for 160-170 pound kid to lose ten to fifteen pounds in two hours. Water weight of course. Seen 300 pounders lose over 20 many of times
 
There is no one better to represent Coach Gable than Gable Stevenson. He is truly elite. Big Cass has ONE move, a high knee pull on the left leg. You stop that, you shut down his offense.

I think Gable likes to let Mr. Tony that he should head back to Illinois and take a job shoveling pig crap.
Like the swallows of Capistrano so to comes jealous little mizzoufan90 in the post season to spread his indignant BS on the Iowa board.

I think the next 4 timer will be the 5th ( pat smith, Cael , Dake and Logan so far)
 
JV...how long have we both been posting on here? I thought his well thought out sarcastic response to typical fandom deserved a like response.
I must be tired really tired. I thought you were actually being sincere with the chump. My bad:)

ADS needs to figure something out. Hasn’t hit a shot in 2 straight matches vs RBY. Can’t believe TNT didn’t have him better prepared

In the interview this week Spencer said they don't game plan and if true then they need to find another binder.

Blair, as you can see, these threads are the epitome of the cesspool. Would you post these media releases in there own thread so it doesn't get lost in the shuffle?

From the deep end of the cesspool,

i'm curious how PSU seems to have the secret sauce on always be looking for cradles. seems like its always there, yet they seem to be the only ones going for it

It's called practice, I'm not sure TnT know what one is.
 
My point is pretty obvious. He said it seemed closer, i pointed out why. Why you took issue with that, i'm not really sure
I don't know which troll you were replying to, if any, but what you posted in and of itself looked stupid. That is why.
 
I agree there's something wrong, but T and T wouldn't put him out there if he wasn't 100% IMO, that's why I believe that he's cutting too much
Well that's not actually true. Guys wrestle through injuries all the time.
 
Well that's not actually true. Guys wrestle through injuries all the time.
Kaleb Young doesn't look "injured" to me. He's been offensively challenged from Day One and it's biting him in the ass more this year than previously.

He's still a tough SOB as far as I'm concerned, he just needs more "game".
