Especially after he picks up a big payday from NLWC in the Fall, lol.
You're right, Hildebrandt is going to finish 1-2 at Nationals. I heard every Iowa fan says that actually.
Byers was off his game today, the scoreboard had Berge wrestling a different wrestler first match. Checked box score says McComas I’m confused

Sounds good, with very little to no points coming at 125, 149, 157, 165 for PSU, there's really no excuse for Iowa to lose. Y'all are in the drivers seat.
Hopefully it’s the first 3 bouts he wrestles then. Cause that’s 6th place.
I have to admit, watching RBY wrestle for anyone else but PS would be very hard. Hope it isnt true!
I’m fairly certain you weren’t the first and won’t be the last to post something that turns out to be incorrect. If you want to feel better, go visit the Berge is 165 thread.
RBY wants to fight and train back home. He won’t be going to another school to wrestle. We’ll see. He might change his mind if he doesn’t defend his title.
Shout out to Donovan Ball. When I hear he’s filling in these days, I think “okay, so it’s one less bonus point.”
Kerk and Max looked 100%. Carter wrestled with 1.5 hands. He’ll need both for Bigs.
Yeah but he looked like himself, another 12 days to recover.
Everyone is hurting somewhere at this point of the year.
I wouldnt be surprised if we just watched the last “extra match” allowed by the NCAA. Why do these idiots have to game the system?
Thanks!
I saw the original poster modified the Berge title. The thread remains and hasn’t aged well beginning with the first sentence
“Can people now please get comfortable with Berge at 165 and quit saying Berge has to go down to 157”
I appreciate the guy that started my brain fart by saying PSU was 95-2 in their last dual meets. Got me trying to remember who were the 2 losses today. I got one of the 2 correct Iowa but guessing they were the ones to break our 60 win streak was incorrect. It was ASU
JM, If Ayala is healthy, who do you like between Drake and Drew? Bummer we missed that matchup at Carver.
not sure if you are being facetious, or if you are serious?? but to be honest the fact very few seem to think this is an issue is far more telling than how Berge does at 157. AND coming into this match I cared more than a TON about that!!!
Yep - I remember that loss. Caught an afternoon flight out of Atlanta into Sky Harbor. Barely made it to the match for the start. It had a bad vibe from the start. It was good to see the ASU fans all fired up for once. Enough …. that was as they used to say in the 60’s …. A BAD TRIP!
You’re good. I’m wrong most of the time here. Do as I do, when you do luck into being right, make sure everyone knows about it. Ain’t that right @Dogwelder ? Lol
Nick looked tired to me. Like he’s been chopping shit loads of wood and carrying buckets of water.
And I’ll feel so much better when we win the National championship with him instead of Nick. You too I assume?
Yeah, I thought Nick could have played catch & release in the 3rd, but he’s good on top & maybe he thought he could get back points.
That said, Kinner’s a tough out. Not much offense, but he’s a good rider and difficult to score on.
Nick's match management plan was to get out from bottom in the 2nd period, then maybe get a takedown by the end of the 2nd. Didn't work out that way.
But the match management was okay, just the execution that was lacking. But then Quinner had something to do with that.
I think it’s a true toss up. If Drake can’t take him down he’s not going to win on the mat. Drew is too tough on top.
I thought it was 'you ride me, I can ride you'.... he also wanted to get riding time under 1 min.... Nick looked fine....even Steiber was ridden out
Pretty sure. Definitely sure he wasn't there for his ORS. Ivy rules are pretty strict: you use your eligibility if you are enrolled (that's why there are no redshirt Ivy Leaguers), and you can't compete as a graduate student. It's not unusual for a top Cornell guy (like Palacio) to not enroll in a fall semester so as to not graduate before using up his eligibility.
Greyshirt
Cornell freshman
Cornell sophomore
ORS (not enrolled)
COVID year (not enrolled)
PSU junior (now)
He'll be 25 if he competes next year!
Think Carter will have the other 0.5 by BIGs, what’s the injury? A tweaked wrist ? Just last week Berge was a 165, n Kerk was out for the season with a hamstring tear and max Dean could barely walk , I love this place , lol.
We're very lucky to have Dan Monthley
Yes he did. He also said he could return next year to PSU or just concentrate on Freestyle.
Byers was indeed off his game today. He thought the first stall warning in the 174 bout was against Rider (it was clearly called on Starocci), didn't realize the review in the 184 bout was a coaches challenge, and then was initially confused about Berge's opponent in the extra match. To be fair though, he pretty quickly corrected the mistake about the Rider wrestler in the extra match
Fun to watch RBY put on one final TD clinic in Rec Hall! Donovan Ball is a tough dude and could probably start at a lot of programs. Much appreciation to him for sticking around. Max and Kerk wasted no time at all! Impressive. Berge looked perfectly comfortable at 157. All the hand wringing about him gassing there appears overblown. Carter remains nasty. Has two more weeks for that wrist to heal fully. Beau got some points and could be rounding into form for the postseason. Nick better not take bottom vs Eierman. There’s no need to, beat him on his feet and with his gas tank.
Seems as though we’re exactly where we want to be as the postseason nears! Great to be a PSU Alumnus and fan!
WE ARE!!!

Before you have a stroke, could have been something as simple as BTN+ only had Byers audio feed and no access to the PA announcer / singer mic.
The BTN-plus technical productions always seem to be bare bones, but at least we get to see live wrestling
