Just imagine if he ACTUALLY wanted it....
Berge is going to do MAJOR damage. Just now getting comfortable. Been wrestling Zain a lot.....
Here's the difference between Cael and other coaches. If he thinks it's too much for a guy to cut weight twice in two days, then the guy sits vs the UNRANKED wrestler so he can be ready to face the highly ranked opponent.

@Wrestlerneverdiesasacatfan better get your wallet ready
Gravina four seconds from going OT, gets injured, Reinhardt chooses down to restart and escapes in three seconds.
Hot take from the NW commentators. Nolf *might* be in a class of his own in 157. Astounding.
Not to sound like a Carver Hawkeye drone but where the hell are the stall calls?

15-5, PSU at the break
Very efficient 3rd period rideout. 3 penalty points!
deakin rode him so there was a moral victory after giving up what 2 stall points a C and TV.....awful period
Deakin just learned he's not in the same universe as Nolf.
Deaken happy to stall his way to getting only majored
That has to be a strange result. Bottom guy scoring three points without getting an escape.
I guess it’s acceptable to start on top with a tight waist now. Seemed like he could have been hit a few more times for stalling.
Nolf wrestling like he's got that Utah Royals money.
In the abstract, there shouldn't be a lot of difference between the #1 and the #3 wrestler. That was not the case between Nolf and Deakin. They could wrestle 100 times, and I don't think Deakin would win once.
For all the HR super homers who thought that Ryan Deakin was going to keep it close or beat Jason Nolf. Eight take downs to 0... and three stalling calls on Deakin. Good call.

Nolf's bonus streak still alive. A sign he could go wire to wire this season. Will Berger actually try to wrestle him or just try not to get bonus-ed?
If he can clean up those 8 takedowns before March, he has a chance ;-)
It's called STALLING not to get tech falled....Ref would have got tore up in Rec Hall.
That was disgusting. Just short of a DQ... THIS is why the National Duals should never be the national championship. Stalling while down by 10 to save a team point? Just wrestle.
Well, he gave up 3 points so he wouldn't get teched. A small price to pay to save his dignity.
Nothing will ever best Jake Sorensen and the Nebraska match.
Among the moves that apparently should be awarded points:
Fist to the Back
Turnaround
Return to the square (wut?)
And the ever popular..... STALLMATE
Agree, at end of 2nd period.
Looked like RBY pretty much shut it after he tweaked his leg; was just trying to hang on at that point.
