Would anyone else love to see RBY and DeSanto again in freestyle? Backing up with one arm behind your back probably not a winning formula with freestyle officiating.

C'mon, it's been 5 minutes. Surely it's over by now. Help a guy out that's too stubborn to pay Flo. I've been rethinking that lately. They've had a lot of content I want to see, even if I don't really care for them.
I haven't tried it yet, but it looks like UWW+ broadcasts all these. It's equavelant to about $7/yr.
Pair that with a VPN, connect somewhere in Europe, and we could potentially watch these for cheap.
What a week so far for Iowa wrestling!!! Let's keep it going Jax.
Spencer looks good. Tank looks good.
That HI-C/duck counter to the overtie snap is nifty.

Clearly testing out the tank and that is why he didn’t end those matches in 30 seconds
I would say he pretty much controlled the entire match. He took all the early shots and kinda let them go due to FS rules. In other words, didn't wanna chance exposure. Guy was put on shot clock finally, not exactly sure how that works? In any case he got the point and also a TD I believe in that 30 seconds? SL gut wrenched him in the out of bounds area, not sure why that would not be points there?
Went to break up 3-0. Guy had a nice snap to a score making it 3-2, spencer added a push out to make it 4-2. He then added a nice Duck type TD to make it 6-2.

Islam BAZARGANOV from Azerbaijan. Flo has him ranked 20th at 57KG, Spencer ranked 2nd.
Clear, easy to read, minimal caps, no excessive punctuation....
Every once in a while the real person behind the persona slips out.
The AZE guy was European shifty...SL had him dead to rights on a couple of sweep singles and he slithered out pretty easy. Was better for SL in the ties.
Also watched RBY who won his match. Looked good...hand fighting has improved close in but reverted back to straight arm space in the 2nd.

Here's the Spencer vs RBY match.
IMO Spence was in control throughout and tank looked just fine.
RBY scores on a questionable grounded push out and a TD in the final 10 seconds. Spence had zero reason to fight it, just smart.
Also, idk how RBY doesn't go on the clock in the first. He didn't do anything for the first 2:30.
PSU fans think the gap has closed. It hasn't. It'll only get bigger from here.

Spencer has shifted his style. Go hard in the first period and see what you can get in par terre...build a lead. Be opportunistic, don't force anything, get Ws in the 2nd. Saw this at trials last year. That's coaching.
man... that shot of the arena right before the medal round, completely empty. Who is making these decisions to hold top level events on random wednesdays?
If by opening up you mean go hard for push out points the last 3 minutes I agree. Seems almost all he does is push and try wearing guys out. I only watch two of his matches because I can't stand how he wrestles.

It was said that RBY looked bad physically at 57. He looked fine to me and his gas tank never went empty. I think he stays at 57.
Those last four and a half pounds can make a huge difference. He wasn't at 57 today.
Yeah, he got 5 push outs in one match pretty sure. But had some decent leg attacks in the others I watched.
Spot on. RBY did a whole lot of nothing until the final minute...really the final 45 seconds. This was never close.
Also RBY is fortunate he survived the first. Spence hit that TD and exposure and they rolled oob. He hits that in the middle of the mat and it's a tech inside 2 minutes.
Great job Spencer! He looks strong and healthy! He compleyely controlled the first 5 mins vs RBY. Match was over when he gave up the late td.
That was the match against Deshazer. I don’t like his style and never have.
He took what he was given and never had to risk going under him because DeShazer never attempted a TD.
