The refs awarded points and someone watching tv took them away

More power has been given to the refs on the mat to define control. They gave control to Caleb despite head position and it was revered by some “ref” somewhere not on the mat. Ridges butt was buried with Caleb on the legs for a moment and it looked like a takedown. I realize Ridge doesn’t know what a takedown looks like vs Caleb but it looked like a takedown to an amateur like myself.

Nafeikoh • 03/22/25 08:53 PM ET
i don't know much but the Nebraska guy put himself is a position
VermontDDS • 03/22/25 09:27 PM ET
Agree
Hokie havoc • 03/22/25 09:10 PM ET
Everyone keeps talking about the head…
CTDad • 03/22/25 09:10 PM ET
Exactly. Agreed. Great post.

I was more worried about reaction time than the head initially b/c I
AirborneHokie96 • 03/22/25 09:16 PM ET
Is there reaction time at the end of period (or out of bounds )?**
hokie576 • 03/22/25 09:19 PM ET
There is reaction time all the time on a TD
AirborneHokie96 • 03/22/25 09:21 PM ET
Yeah but I thought there was no reaction time at end of periods and oob
hokie576 • 03/22/25 09:31 PM ET
No....not a thing. It makes those end of period TDs even more tricky**
AirborneHokie96 • 03/22/25 09:38 PM ET

To the new fans that joined us, Robie has a great thing going.
VTDante • 03/22/25 09:03 PM ET
So many holes for next year.

Seems more discipline issue than gas tank IMO**
Palmetto Hokie • 03/23/25 12:14 AM ET
We have great coaches **
AirborneHokie96 • 03/22/25 09:16 PM ET
I don't see how you overturn that
Hikinghokie • 03/22/25 09:03 PM ET
Been going to tech matches every year since 2014 and

If been around wrestling for 45 years.
GreenvilleVT • 03/22/25 09:06 PM ET
This is the best take I've heard. **
Nafeikoh • 03/22/25 10:24 PM ET
AGREE on this. **
AirborneHokie96 • 03/22/25 09:23 PM ET
Especially after telling both wrestlers throughout the first period
GreenvilleVT • 03/22/25 09:26 PM ET
Still not a fun sport. Nebraska just had back to back wrestlers
La Gargola • 03/22/25 09:10 PM ET
Free country. Change the channel.
GreenvilleVT • 03/22/25 09:19 PM ET
That's true **
La Gargola • 03/22/25 09:32 PM ET
That's just me tho**
La Gargola • 03/22/25 09:04 PM ET
We can agree to disagree I guess.
vthokiebrotha • 03/22/25 09:01 PM ET
You teach them to draw stall warnings by head butting the guy out of bounds
hokiepro • 03/22/25 08:59 PM ET
That was a good call. I didn’t see any head butt. **
GreenvilleVT • 03/22/25 09:08 PM ET
60 posts today can you give us a break on this dude? @Will Stewart**
MsAHokie • 03/22/25 09:04 PM ET

After several years of seeing his schtick, I think it's best to just ignore

I'm not responding to you anymore
Nafeikoh • 03/22/25 09:00 PM ET
The refs were inconsistent with the stall calls
PalmHokie • 03/22/25 08:54 PM ET
That first sralll warning on Caleb was warranted**
VTDante • 03/22/25 09:01 PM ET
You are supposed to call stalling on the shover, and I have seen exactly
dallasvt • 03/22/25 09:36 PM ET
Naw, shove out of bounds is written in the rule book to be stalling Lovett**
hokie576 • 03/22/25 09:09 PM ET
I actually disagree here
Hikinghokie • 03/22/25 09:08 PM ET
It's more often called incorrectly and we know that
donjfs3 • 03/22/25 09:13 PM ET
They definitely call it incorrectly regularly
Hikinghokie • 03/22/25 09:15 PM ET
I thought the stall against caleb was iffy at best
jofus13 • 03/22/25 08:59 PM ET
Butt to center
Nafeikoh • 03/22/25 08:59 PM ET
Yep...he did just that**
AirborneHokie96 • 03/22/25 09:24 PM ET
Sure - Stall calls still inconsistent and Lovett took 0 shots
PalmHokie • 03/22/25 09:03 PM ET
I thought they could have called it on Lovett when he backed out late**
