The match that foreshadowed what would become iowas fate 17 years later

[Psugo823]

Here it is: Representative of all that would doom them in 17 years time from this match
1. Braun and pushing vs skill and style
2. Superior wrestling talent winning
3. The Iowa style failing in the face of real wrestling
4. A 74 match win streak ends
5. Iowa loses to Penn State when it counts the most

Enjoy

Great job by Kolat!

If you listen to the announcer in the background, I’m pretty sure that’s my old friend Ed Aliverti from Edmonds, WA.

Thanks for sharing the clip. That was an awesome match. However, I'm going to partially disagree with you. Steiner took several shots but couldn't convert. There wasn't a lot of "pushing". And its quite insulting that you would say that wasn’t "real wrestling" on Steiner's part.

The other part I will agree with you, Kolat was technically spot on and was the more skilled wrestler that day.

Edit: also, its brawn, not braun. And also, I'm not a Troy Steiner fan. He killed Fresno State wrestling.

Unfortunately, Steiner's brother Terry got revenge about a half hour later in a heartbreaker.

We need that kind of officiating today.

 

[Chickenman Testa]

Would it be appropriate to say that they are doomed?

 

[Roar More]

We need that kind of officiating today.

Fred Ambrose was head and shoulders above any other ref I have ever watched. He was a pleasure to watch. Decisive and always in position. Always in control and kept the match moving. I wish he could have been cloned.

Never was a Fred fan, it sometimes seemed as though he felt the fans were there to watch him and his calls.not the wrestling. The best refs aren't noticed by the fans

What I saw was Colat gassed. He was better at finishing his TDs which won him the match. I had no issue with the stall calls. It seems like rules have changed on potential danger positions since then, which would've benefited Steiner.

What I saw was Colat win. Feel free to correct me on that.

Thought it was Q’s pin…

That wasn't foreshadowing: That was the opening bomb thar destroyed the foundation.

You must realize that in Iowa City, not gassing is more important than winning.

Don’t forget holding center or controlling the hand fight as well

 

[Cowbell Man]

That match was a showcase of two great talents. I missed the parts where Stiener deployed today's Iowa tactics.

Reading comprehension issue?

Fact issue? Guy snaps a 72 match win streak and you're out here bitching about him gassing.
