I can’t believe there was a time when Al Michaels called NCAA wrestling in national TV

[@kainickname]

where can I see all the NCAA wrestling matches since the beginning? Is there some sort of archive? Thanks

[@K....D....]

anything for the network he worked for

[@mstripling86]

mark is also now a black belt in jiu jitsu, he would be a nightmare to deal with on the mat given his wrestling skills coupled with submission ability

[@JohnnyRugged06]

Both guys were really classy when interviewed after the match.

[@Rick-zl3zp]

Geez, these guys are massive.

Talk about going for broke. Bonus points for the reaction of the Oklahoma dog mascot when Mark gets reversed in second period. Lol.

[@elvis6855]

Thank you! Keep them coming!

[@NateMac434]

Amazing video thank u for posting

[@user-cq6dg6ql9j]

Match was so intense it looked like it was scripted for a movie. Easily one of the greatest matches in NCAA history.

@@kainickname Search by years. Some of the finals have all the matches, but others have to be watched individually. 1991 and 1995 have the entire finals on them with some legendary bouts in those.

Banach actually smashed some property in the Myriad arena in Oklahoma City after the match and his school had to pay thousands in damages.

awesome match!

[@NCAAChampionships]

Thanks for the watching!

[@ianshue2890]

By any chance can you put Dave Schultz vs Mike Sheets up? I can’t find the match anywhere

[@NCAAChampionships]

Hey Ian! Thanks for the request. We are looking into it.

[@protamine4]

Even though Banach was composed in his interview, after he left the arena floor he went berserk and destroyed thousands of dollars worth of property at the Myriad in OKC.

[@michaelmasotti2842]

I hate the boundaries in the old matches

[@ChrisM-mj7ix]

Funny seeing you here

[@rycheek]

I like the ref slapping away the hold at the end. How it should be

[@lawsonransom8318]

"Ed tastes Da Feet today."

[@K....D....]

Schultz is an animal

[@peterc8021]

Does anyone else think Dan Gabel vs Stan Abel is weird how close the names are?

[@branden3785]

And the reporter at the end stumbling through his words while trying to say "stumbling block"

[@mikejames2380]

Oh. My. God. Did they throw the kitchen sink at each other or what?

[@ct6852]

Don't backflip stomp his head Mark. That's just cruel. lol

[@carson911]

just juiced to the gills on dbol

[@firstgenchevelleman]

Are these guys seriously 177lbs?

[@askeen333]

Old weight cutting rules. They’d be 184s now.

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

Typical Iowa biased referee. Way too many calls went their way in the Gable years...

[@protamine4]

Banach sounded composed in his interview but was in a rage after he left the arena and caused significant property damage at the Myriad in Oklahoma City. Iowa had to pay many thousands in damages. Knowing Gable he probably didn't discipline Banach at all. And when he coached the U.S. Olympic team in 1984 Gable helped his own Iowa wrestlers during the trials at the expense of OSU's Lee Roy Smith who rightfully should have been on the team over Iowa's Randy Lewis.

[@kace999]

Not enough chest to chest connection by Banach on the last throw attempt. Mark go around too easily. And yes, easy for me to say.
