[Valholl]

Feldman is really flat now10 weconds
Ben picks Feldman up with 4 seconds and just holds him as the clock sounds

Will wrestle for 3rd.

 

[Steevo36]

Not a fan of the wrasslin today.

 

[24timenattychamps]

nice job by Ben

 

[CatCoach]

Way to go Ben!!!
But let’s be honest just because it worked, riding out the whole period, it still is not smart wrestling.
We need to be more offensive.
Lost the previous two matches the same way.

 

[Valholl]

BK has Joshua Heindselman RS Sr (21-3) Michigan for 3rd

 

[AFHawk86]

Good job BK. Not sexy but you’re in the third place match vs Heindselman.

 

[js8793]

nice job kueter. and he did it the tom brands way. no takedowns!

 

[MitchLL]

Is this underperformance more mental than physical???

Both????

 

[Valholl]

Teemer going against Saldate

 

[zoe22]

0 takedowns last 3 matches, maybe 1 legit shot. Welcome to Brands wrestling. Can’t teach offense.

 

[Jason.D.Brantley]

Teemer
Saldate right now

 

[HawkFan1986]

BK has Joshua Heindselman RS Sr (21-3) Michigan for 3rd

I think this matchup favors Ben. Heindselman is not an overly large heavyweight. If you would have told me BK was gonna be wrestling for third on Thursday I would have taken that immediately and without hesitation.

When you're really good at riding, why would you not ride as long as you can. Especially in a 1-0 match!!! It actually was VERY SMART wrestling.

Dumb wrestling would have been to cut him and go to a less dominant position.

 

[Jason.D.Brantley]

Joey Cruz on mat 2?

 

[Valholl]

In space with 1 min gone by
Teemer hopping around.

Teemer 3
Saldate 0

Challenge from a cradle by teemer

 

[MitchLL]

Yet another match without a takedown.

JFC

 

[blcoach80]

Finally, that a way Ben. BK's seed for NCAAs is big with the 3 monsters lurking at the top. PK and GA can beat anyone from the 3 seed to the 10 seed at NCAAs (while also losing to any of them) so seeding is more of a crapshoot at 174/184 imo.

 

[Valholl]

Saldate long shot and waterfalls Teemer
Teemer somehow gets out and turns into his offense
Almost cradle
Not locked but danger?
TD to Teemer
Challenge brick
Ironside and Grace dont think control
BRands walks over to talk to ref, stops to talk to the MI coach.

 

[AFHawk86]

I thought Teemer would forfeit and rest up for nationals.

 

[Valholl]

Challenge or review?
Doesn't matter : No TD
0-0
1:22 left
Teemer moving a lot

 

[oldhawk56]

Kudos Ben!

 

[Jason.D.Brantley]

Tom challenges

 

[Valholl]

This is a lot of dancing and no shots
Both guys seem happy to wrestle in space
end of 1
woah, with 3 seconds, Teemer grabs both legs and trips and covers but ref waves it off
Brands runs the brick directly to the table.
That looked like a TD.

 

[Jason.D.Brantley]

Saldate starts down

 

[Valholl]

Weird shot from non tie for Teemer
It was a TD but not sure if there was time left
And no TD

 

[eb05]

how did they not call that a takedown for teemer at the end of the period? he doubled him flat to the mat. insanity

 

[Jason.D.Brantley]

5 second escape for Saldate

 

[Czech Hawk]

Can’t remember when we have looked so bad before. Did we have one upset this weekend yet? Dang. It’s painful

At this point, are Arnold and Kennedy single digit seeds???

Start of 3rd Teemers choice

 

[Valholl]

Teemer wrestling from the cetner on his knees
end of 2

 

[Jason.D.Brantley]

Teemer reversal to back points

 

[DeangeloVickers]

That was a frustrating match. Kennedy completely controlled the pace of the match for 6 minutes and 30 seconds, but Patrick was not able to score or even take a shot that whole time. He did snap OSU down 10-12 times but could never get around.
Then with 30 seconds left OSU level changed and took the only shot of the match and scored.
Patrick/Iowa has to figure out how to level change and get to the legs. You have to be able to generate some offense when your opponents are strong enough to withstand the pressure.
Snaps and slide byes just are not as effective in a 1-1 match with 1 minute left and Iowa seems to be in a ton of those types of matches.

Careful. He teched some bums early in the year so the casuals insist his offense is just fine...
