Iowa vs. Iowa State

I was told by someone who was there that Gable flipped off Sanderson during their dual on Saturday. Can anyone confirm or deny this--I know this rivalry can get heated!!

It depends on who you talk to. According to Cael, Gable flipped him the middle finger. According to Gable, he did not flip him the middle finger, but he did flip him the fist (as in "up yours"). This was in response to Cael calling Gable a cry baby.

The big uproar was during/after the Perry/Paulson match. Perry was awarded a controversial takedown and also took some injury time for a mysterious injury. As most fans of college wrestling know, Iowa doesn't take kindly to injury timeouts. They are typically ridiculed as having "an injured lung". So, when Perry took an injury timeout in a tight match, Cael and Hartung were all over it. There was a heated discussion amongst the 4 coaches (Brands, Gable, Sanderson and Hartung) and the official at the scorers table that carried over to some yelling back and forth across the mat.

The Iowa-Iowa State dual should be a treat for years to come. If you all haven't already, you've got to see one in person.

That's pretty much the way I heard it---the fist!
Also, I heard Fanthorpe won his match and looks huge for 125!

Fanthorpe lost 6-5 to Falck.
