Exactly!!! Why is this kind of wrestling still allowed? Make them wrestle and there’s no need for a three point take down.
They tried to artificially inflate scoring but it didn’t increase offense. Talk about a cluster **** of a rules committee.
I swear, if you put in 15 knowledgeable fans and let them set the rules. This sport would be better for it!!
It's buried unnecessarily deep. I had to search for it, but I think it's also on the 2nd page.
Smith looked very underwhelming. Think Glazier wins that handily
Been that way for several seasons outside of handful of guys who came in as high level scramblers.
I just get the impression it isn’t something that is prioritized in the practice room…and it shows.

I don’t disagree. They need to bring someone in from the outside to add a different perspective.
Tough to see that from Hill. Dude gave it all he had this year.
Well tough few rounds there. Some nice showings and few guys got work to do. Ayala really gonna have it tough.
Iowa with 6 semi finalists, Michigan with 8, Penn state with 9.
He really did. Very solid in wins and losses. Also handled the kueter stuff well too. Good kid
Didn't get to see 197 and up...I'm assuming Hill's injury is probably season ending not a little ding?
It’s Drake’s fault…period. I don’t care if the ****er runs around in circles like the ASU kid did against Spencer at NCAAs several years back. Drake needs to catch him and take his ass down. He sucked and it’s his fault.
Just a tough year. Few shining lights especially Brody Kennedy and Glazier. Without two transfers this year and one last year our squad would be 3 in semis. Yikes! just a frustrating year overall from a fans perspective. We should be happy with 6 in the semis but when you are trying compete and see the ones we are chasing with basically 10 (PSU) in semis it’s hard to feel good about the team aspect.
Oh 100% Drake didn’t take the match to him. He was timid and let deaug hang around. I do not believe Ayala has got that mental edge yet in college.
Blame it on PSU. LOL! Drake lost because he wrestled to lose just like he did last time out. We need to quit blaming everyone else when we suck! If we know what’s coming we need to adapt and overcome, not do the same shit and then whine when it doesn’t work! Drake owns this, not the refs, not Deag and certainly not PSU! At times we suck at taking responsibility for our failures.
Seriously need a staff shakeup.
And that's not based on anything that's happened today.

I’m thinking he’ll lay an egg based on his lack of offense. Like someone else said, he needs to be serious about wrestling or choose another pastime. He’s way too talented to perform this pathetically.
Too short/small IMO. Don’t think he has the frame.
Perhaps our doctor prescribes some time at the Treigning Lab in California for he (& Ayala). Team?
Seems to do wonders for the most dominant team in the sport.
Just imagine how poor we’d be without the 6 guys in the semis. We would have no semifinalists!!! Awful to think about.
Oh. So Davis actually prepared for his match. Maybe Drake should have done the same?? Zero improvement.
He went back to center and Brands called it. I suspect he will continue. Total guess.
I was joking about Kennedy. He’s too small for 184. There’s been talk of Brands bulking up & returning for another year.
What’s up with all of this whining I’m seeing on this thread today? We blame PSU and the refs for our losses and then blame the ref for PSU wins. Ugh!!
We don’t like Penn st!! Haha. But yeah I see your point.
I'll blame Penn State, because f*** Penn State. That's why.......
Whining 101!
