Sorensen was in on a deep shot outside single, and as he was shelfing the leg for the takedown Tsirtsis tweaked his elbow. He got the TD, but Tsirtsis Inj. Defaults out. He didn't look happy he had to inj default.
pinfall as i put some wood on the fire. 1:38. it is 30-0 at the break. it's all yours from here Vall. I'm assuming you'll keep up the streak!! that was crazy. 1/2 done in 24 minutes...
Elbow didn't look dislocated or extended. T-shirt was going to his back when he grabbed his arm. He used the same arm to remove his headgear. I don't think it's serious which is good.
So if it doesn't finish 60-0 it is on me?
Didn't weigh anyone in at 141
Everyone going fast, except for the quick TD on Clark.
Comments.
The guy Cooper wrestled looked like my paper boy.
TS really wanted to go but the trainers didn't let him
Cooper wrestled a true frosh with a 0-0 record.
Good thing, Cooper didn't wait He went out.
Arctic Plunge coming up. Ironside lost to Terry last year and since he's a big movie star now and got a Nike contract, it will be hard to beat him.

Nice single by BS. Was shaping up to be another great match between the two. Feel bad for Tshirt but, man, this dual doesn't have a lot of drama so far. Note to Iowa, tOSU and PSU athletic directors: PLEASE find a way to schedule some matches next year.
It didn't look bad. There was no visible dislocation, but I suppose that's still a possibility. Whatever the case, Sorensen was controlling the match at that point. He had :30 of RT and was about to start adding to it with a takedown. Odds are pretty good he would have been up 3-1 plus a RT point after an escape in the 3rd.
Sorensen seems to be figuring Tsirtsis out. He's getting to his legs now and also managed to ride him for :30 before giving up the escape. He tried several suck-backs when Tsirtsis went to his sit-out and was able to get good forward pressure for a while. So he's getting more effective against Tsirtsis on his feet and on top, plus he's shown that he can escape from under Tsirtsis without giving up a bunch of RT. I think Sorensen's solid technique, size, and strength are proving to be a little much for Tsirtsis. Plus, the confidence of back-to-back wins is huge. Even though Tsirtsis injury-defaulted, Brandon was taking control when the injury happened. This was a very likely win without the injury, considering how little scoring usually happens between these two.
Agree 100%. That was going to be a win for BS regardless unless Tsirtsis pulled a rabbit out of his hat in the third. Great to see BS getting to the legs and committing. As Tom has pointed out, when he gets there he scores.
I don't think so. he may have caught it and had some stabbing pain and then he had no fight.
Rhoads needs a big win here.
He had a tough guy against Ill but it was the worst he wrestled for Iowa.
Rhoads trying whip overs
Great shot by PR but Norland jumps through
SM comng?

No his cringe was legit. I ran the video back and forth but couldn't catch any misaligned arm.
Don't get hurt in this tie up.

Great quote from the Rhoads match. . . . "Now, Norland goes down on him." Probably didn't come out exactly how the pbp guy had hoped.
got to be thinking about a major.

This period is the difference, this period no offense and Nor gets to our leg. And we lost 30 seconds in that SM
Now PR to a leg.
Cannot get it.

In his mind, Ironside is making Rhoads run laps for that one.

Another fun quote from BTN Plus, as Meyer counters a single-leg attack, scrambles, and comes up with Sliga's leg. . . . "Now Meyer's got him in a leg lift!"
Meyer has been slow in the first period
Gives up leg easy
Like now. Sliga has a leg.
Roll thru and might score now.
And he does.

Too ez to our leg.

Another gem from the broadcast, discussing rules on stalling. . . . "It doesn't really benefit you to try and stall. . . ."
Guys who gave up their legs easily - both Steiners and "Mr. Impossible Leg", Randy Lewis.
Bummer for Northwestern this year. They had a great recruiting class a few years ago and would have all been starters this year but Micic leaves, Brill hurt, Sebastian hurt. Think they have a good 285 redshirting this year and of course the have Reenan coming in next year and will probably start.
