His dad got some serious old man strength

[@Primus-ue4th]

No kidding. I think he pulled him up with his back, no hips. 😂

[@tmt1675]

“And it better be good” wow! What a vicious fake to the opposite side peek out super duck. That was amazing!

[@nickgianesin5254]

One of the greatest finishes to a match in NCAA history

[@jablonskiiiii]

they finally put the match on youtube lets go

[@martymcfly1003]

Japer// bro I’ve waited years for this match to pop up in KZbin 😭😭😭😭😭

[@MAMP]

Hell yea.

[@frasert8779]

"I'm telling ya, Dennis does NOT lose late" Do these commentators ever get tired of eating their words? lol

[@JB-zo7ln]

Quint: "Jason, why did you give your dad a hug?" Jason's answer: "well, he was sitting right there so I jumped up. He's stuck with me through my entire wrestling career and it means a lot." Jason's actual thought: "uh, are you f$#@n' kiddin me, dude?" "Because he's my dad and I just won a national title in a thrilling fashion."

Matches like these make me appreciate the danger rule

[@xenonmaster6668]

I like no danger rule matches preferable than with

[@patrickbrogan8770]

They kept saying Dennis doesn’t lose late right before he lost in the final 15 seconds

[@ndwrestler]

This continues to be one of my favorite matches to watch. Btw, the description is incorrect. Ness didn't get a last-second pin; he got a last-second take down with 2 back points.

[@martymcfly1003]

FINALLY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS IBGET TOO WATCG THE FULL NATCH INSTEAD OF JUST THE FINAL 10 seconds of the match

[@robertlillquist5758]

Dennis was flat for about 15 seconds in that 1st period...

[@VanishedPNW]

He was definitely pinned. Ref was nowhere. Unless I somehow don't understand the rules and the ref was thinking nobody was in control.

[@michaeltamillow9722]

@@VanishedPNW yeah, that was 5 points that went uncalled.

[@aA-pe2sq]

@@michaeltamillow9722 I don’t think either wrestler had control, the ref would’ve called 2 for the takedown. And if you’ve wrestled you know being in that position it could go either way and no one had control yet

[@purduebro]

Crab ride in the second could’ve been 2 back points as well… this could’ve been a blowout

[@davidgantz9378]

True

[@greatstate58]

Lol ness dad with the old man strength. Brought him right up.

[@beauhansen7426]

Jay Ness is a legend

[@stephlee3499]

Dan Dennis and Thomas Gillman got something in common lol

[@tmt1675]

Ness went after it man he wanted one bad beautiful little opposite side peak out duck for the winning takedown

Amazing match, thank u guys Ness and Dennis putting on a show 🙌

[@NCAAChampionships]

You're welcome!

[@lesteranderson3350]

Dude this was freaking awesome....

[@paulenger-dt1bw]

Always love when Minnesota beats Iowa

[@cosinguspalpatine4449]

GOD DAMN HE WAS FLAT FOR A MEAN MINUTE

[@nohalfmeasures6]

Never underestimate "Dad Strength", they'll do what they can to see their kid. 😍😍

[@carusman94]

Probably what people don’t appreciate about this match unless you’ve reffed the sport - amazing job by the official staying in position all the way to the mat on the takedown at the end to see the back exposure to count 2 near fall. Remarkable stuff

[@OvertheHIL524]

Great job by Ness. I really feel for Dennis. I've been there.

[@driver8M3]

damn....ABC sports could have used the last 5 seconds of the match for their "thrill of victory...and the agony of defeat" programming intro.

[@goldwolf0606]

What a finish!!!!

[@NorthStar420]

Holy shit that was awesome! So clutch!

[@superobotmonkey]

W.T.F Daniel Dennis CLEARLY pinned in the first. Ref didn't even swipe for exposure. Nobody says anything. 🤔

[@razzberry4756]

you can see dennis’s heart break, great work by ness though

[@paulenger4494]

Always a good thing when Minnesota beats Iowa

[@goarmybeatnavy14]

i've noticed every great wrestler has a dad that coached him

[@williamoleary9330]

Heart breaking Devastating

[@tmt1675]

Nice def had two quick swipes in the second and a take down at the end of the first before he poppped his hips out after being stuck he was clearly taken down on his hip for a second before the scramble

[@bobcharlemagne1179]

Here for throw back Thursday

[@gavinhumphreys3912]

Give us more Nd give us full finals from any year

[@joebuck4957]

Ness was a monster 133 pounder.

[@shavs507]

It should have been 5-1 end of first period... poor officiating... but the outcome was what it was supposed to be

[@johnadams5492]

Insane

[@landanduval8006]

“you just don’t see dennis loose late”

[@holdencawffle626]

Ness weighed about 160lbs in this match

[@MAMP]

WHOA DUCK LOOK AT THE DUCK!!!

[@fmulder6564]

Brands looks like he is going to tear dennis apart with his bare hands in the locker room after the last whistle. Surprised lasers didn't come out his eyes.

[@ianshue2890]

While I think Jayson Ness is the better wrestler, I am a little upset that Dennis didn’t win. First, I’m a Hawkeye fan. Second, I do like upsets. You can see in Dennis’s face whenever the match is over, he was upset that the match was right there and it slipped away from him at the last second. I really feel for him

[@connernevinwrestler3861]

Man Dennis is a small 133 or ness is a huge 33

[@misiomis5136]

👍👏👐

[@WiscoWrestler]

I love those Minnesota gold singlets. Sexy.

God/Jesus loves y’all

[@peachypeaches6288]

Who hates Iowa?!

[@yamotha8452]

typical minnesota time out. dennis needed to finish to the last second. but minnesota always needs a break.

[@johnfrans4878]

That was the most inaccurate, idiotic comment ever made!

[@that1pagannco]

@@johnfrans4878 no kidding, Ness straight up ate that knee.
