Select Matches: Ohio State at Penn State | Big Ten Wrestling | 2/2/2024

[@Clonex72ackHD]

As a penn state fan that was a takedown at the end of the 125 match

[@coachjody1971]

You have reaction time it could have been called either way if he didn't roll then yea but he definitely made it close

[@RickeyLester-mt8qc]

As ohio state fan we know!

[@RickeyLester-mt8qc]

@@coachjody1971you make no sense here, the roll put him on his back which should have made it even more conclusive… either way ref should be investigated.

[@donaldtrumpsmom4575]

Thank PSU fan. Honesty is rare these days and the refs prove that

[@cootriley6]

This PSU fan agrees!

[@ricks7990]

Everyone can see that it was a 3-point takedown. Come on Big Ten. Do the right thing and reverse the incorrect ruling.

[@WiegandsWindow]

Penn State is corrupt. Go back an watch all the bullshit that took place with the Bo Nichols/Gabe dean match.

[@willflum2847]

At 125 that’s a takedown. I can’t see any way around it. The collection of the legs with a turn to the back is enough for me to think so

[@3NDER24]

Awful call at 125.

[@WiegandsWindow]

Penn State is corrupt. Go back an watch all the bullshit that took place with the Bo Nichols/Gabe dean match.

[@xzjayz7925]

Sad to say. But that was takedown and possible back points at 125. Call was horrible.

[@tropicalterrarium1742]

And you don't mention. If you turn someone to their back and control them: right when the swipes are (supposed to) start you have earned the take down.

[@zaynes5094]

@@tropicalterrarium1742 Yeah that was definitely some form of control. Braeden didn't wrestle well at all in this match, used to seeing him open up a lot more in that 2nd period more. He didn't really look for offense just trying to survive. Could be hurt, but then again so are most wrestlers at this point.

[@b.b.5048]

Definitely 2 maybe 3 swipes

[@robertbowman448]

​@tropicalterrarium1742 It was a neutral danger count, not nearfall. Therefore, the referee didn't have a takedown yet.

[@xzjayz7925]

@@robertbowman448 if they gave Bartlett the takedown then they should’ve given Vincent the takedown. Damn near the exact situation where both rolled to escape neutral danger.

[@sandygiacobbe3675]

The fix is come on . Those refs need to be sanctioned .

[@fightcentral3936]

Someone please contact the NCAA and get those refs fired. Insane to not only miss that in real time, unforgivable to miss it on review.

[@ryanjackson8984]

I get that Penn state is great, but they seem to get every call in their favor. They lost 125. That kid went for it and got the takedown. What a shame.

[@rustymiller2855]

I totally agree it was a take down. I don't necessarily agree penn state gets all the calls tho lol. Bad call for sure and should have been overuled from someone above

[@BlakeAngusich]

Imagine wresting your heart out and beating a ranked opponent and a ref screws you over

[@zekegaeta9169]

Yeah Penn State got away 125 and 141. There’s no question Kilkeary took down Davis. It was just a bad call and if i were Davis I would quickly wake up and realize that no one is safe at 125. 141 is less egregious but the refs definitely awarded a takedown too soon to Bartlett in OT. I still think he would have got it if the sequence were to continue but, thats neither here nor their at this point

[@j.r.dewyer7163]

Well you're right. He called it too early, but if the whistle hadn't blown, there would have been a takedown. So..... either way

[@davidstiles5888]

Ohio State’s 125 pounder was absolutely, inarguably robbed. Yikes! That was the worst ref screw job I’ve seen all year. Ridiculous...

[@rawbfish9355]

I thought there was at least a takedown at 125 - maybe even 2 back points.

[@Gymthingz]

Those refs showing some bias for Penn state.

[@ogot344]

Stop leaving matches close for the refs to decide

[@coachjody1971]

Wouldn't have matter if Ohio st won those questionable matches they got whooped on the back end 165 through HW was a beat down

[@LittleIggy2010]

[@mikereiling7]

Wasn't close. Whole world saw a TD and possibly backpoints. This ain't boxing... there are clear rules. These refs are just terrible. @@ogot344

[@ahernandez9621]

The idea that the ref gave Braeden Davis at 125 such extended reaction time, effectively denying Kilkeary a legit takedown, but then gave Beau Bartlett at 141 a very quick takedown with absolutely zero reaction time allowed for Mendez, is the height of absurdity. You could see the embarrassment on the faces of the Sanderson brothers.

[@Aveezy]

All facts

[@jackmcg0]

While I don’t disagree about 125, the calls were different. He gave Bartlett a neutral danger call, while that isn’t what should’ve been called at 125, it was just a takedown.

[@cmap4519]

Ohio State is solid and will make some noise in the next few years.

[@3NDER24]

Don't let these guys officiate at the B1G tournament please.

[@Bittlicious]

If 125 wasn't a takedown then neither was 141. Both bad calls.

[@tropicalterrarium1742]

I agree with this.

[@andressandoval9043]

The officiating in the dual was atrocious!

[@JG-re2bb]

The reffing here was horrendous

[@j.r.dewyer7163]

I didn't think there was a worse ref than Angel. But I was proven wrong tonight. I am a psu fan, but certainly a takedown at the end if 125. But numerous calls both ways that were ridiculous

[@drdlin]

Would like yo know the name of that as clown Official

[@SteveWildasin]

It was a takedown with about 5 seconds remaining. 6-4 decision for OSU. Easy call. The Refs watch it again on replay and still don't rule a takedown? Can you say, "home town decision? "

[@uc9218]

The ref. blew it 125 by missing the points at and missed it at 141 with that fast count.

[@PokeParentGX]

If Rocco Welsh can find his offense he is going to be the man to beat in a year or two.

[@coachjody1971]

Carter was flat he hasn't wrestled in two weeks He's been sick you can tell he was tired you never see that but rococo also backed up a lot penn st will be fine at tournament time best to do it

[@PokeParentGX]

@@coachjody1971 Have you watched any of Rocco’s matches other than this one? He is losing to the top ranked guys by one or two points. Kid is a true freshman and if he can breakthrough with some offense against these top guys, he is going to be scary come tournament time!

[@ChengManChing]

Condolences to Vinny K. He got robbed, but he’s gonna have a great career after this red shirt year. All his losses are to top guys and most of them were close. Another great kid from Western PA.

[@robertdonadee9860]

125 match was a travesty. C'mon man. Penn St. is tough enough without having a homer referee in their corner.

[@hovertrout1]

Worst call I’ve seen in years on the 125. No take down call with three seconds left. Give me a break. Damn near a fall.

I’m all about PSU but hard to argue the refs “ always rule in favor of PSU” after what happened at 125 smh that was a take down

[@MrElectricBeach]

Wow 125 then at 141…. These refs should be demoted how is one not a takedown but the other is? These 2 better not ref at any point during the NCAAs

I have to look at the 125 pound match again. I think he almost pinned himself at the end. It was really flat.

[@b.b.5048]

And then to follow that up with the call in the 141 pound match? No consistency, mighty suspicious.

[@abramschutz9907]

Came to comment what everyone else did. Bad call at 125

[@VictorFerroni-dj8lh]

125 match. That was three at the end and should’ve been one count back points. He had both legs completely captured and control. I think that was a bad call. I think they’re letting the guys spend too much time on their back. You shouldn’t be allowed to roll around on your back like that. You could’ve easily counted back points. The rules are a little bit different, but I don’t like the way they roll around in the back like that. They’re almost pending themselves, but there’s no back points or control. they gotta change that

[@coachmic216]

25 & 41 are some of the worst calls I’ve seen…25 is clear as day 😅

[@philipj.sherman2987]

How is that even a question

[@roderickporter9306]

Yea- 125 went to Ohio State. There’s no debating that

[@Kenneth-tz4sx]

Big10 only showed 4 matches. But 125 and 141 scrambles, I almost scrambled myself outa my chair. I know I took down my imaginary opponent. I wasn't there, up close and personal, but 125 was maybe a little iffy. I noticed throughout 1st period Davis was wrestling really cautiously. And starrocci, I'm sorry, I'm just gonna say it, I was disappointed. I just really Really REALLY would like to see him ride people out. It's not a good game plan to bank on getting a takedown. One good scramble and he might be standing there holding the bag.

[@Comp164]

Takedown plus

[@cdorsey15yt81]

Clearly a takedown at 125. Not a fan of either team but that’s a bad look missing that call.
