Was watching Davis (PSU) va Nasir Bailey (LR). Davis won 1-0 but should have been called stalling atleast couple more times. No offense from him. Bailey didn’t go to the bottom. I will take Bailey the next time they go.

Not sure what match you were watching. Davis deserved his stall call less than a minute into the match but Bailey did nothing after that to deserve Davis getting another. Just because it's hand fighting and good defense for 6 minutes doesn't make it stalling. I guess the ref agreed.
133 - #11 Braeden Davis VS #5 Nasir Bailey
Period 1:
Circling. Bailey in deep on a leg quickly, but Davis fights him off. Circling, Bailey drives Davis out of bounds, restart. Stall warning Davis. Circling & head tapping. Bailey has both wrists taped & Davis has his right knee heavily taped. Circling in the center. Bailey snaps, nothing & they're hand fighting hard. Davis coming forward a little. Both working from one knee now. Davis tries a throw by, no luck & they're back to center, 1-min left. Circling, Davis coming forward a little, he shoots and they go out of bounds. That's how the period ends. 0-0.
Period 2:
Davis takes down. Davis turns & gets the escape, 1-0. Circling, tying up, hand fighting & head tapping. Both wrestlers in the center of the mat, 1-min left. Bailey taps, but doesn't shoot. Both wrestlers looking for an opportunity. Out of bounds, 18-sec left. That's it 1-0 Davis
Period 3:
Bailey takes neutral. Bailey tapping at the head, Davis working the wrist. Shooting & countering, but no scoring. Bailey keeps looking for an opening, but can't find one.
Braeden Davis DEC Nasir Bailey 1-0
I disagree. Bailey did try. Just because he didn’t get In deep doesn’t mean he didn’t try. Should have been one more stall call.
OToole vs Levi was fun! Both not giving an inch in regulation. With OToole taking more shots easily than Levi. In SV, after amazing scramble. OToole gets it done confirming he is number 1. Kudos to both and their staff for not ducking.
I don't believe either guy had a TD in that scramble. How do you give a TD to a guy who is literally prone on the mat with his head in the other guy's crotch facing the mat. That said, Levi had his chances.
That was the fair outcome. Levi never really had control and had his arm locked by OToole. And finally OToole was coming out of Levi’s crotch when they gave TD. You see everything with your PSU glasses I guess.
Not at all. I’ve already said Levi didn’t have the TD. I’m just saying that KOT hadn’t yet gotten the TD imo. I think he would have 5-10 seconds later. I’m saying the call was premature but inevitable, and you seem to agree. Where do we disagree?

Probably both of you have slight ocular problems when viewing your respective teams but I do agree with both of you that matches like this are exciting and close and good for the sport. However, I did not have a dog in this race so I can be more fair and impartial and look like the wise old man I am. However, if a Cowboy was in the match all bets are off as far as being magnanimous and graceful.
