You wouldn't expect a guy with a 10-4 record to give Bo such a tough match but obviously, this guy is a lot tougher than his record suggests. Much respect to Gravina.
It’s not like high school where if someone has a better record there Better then them. In college every single kid is a stud no doubt so no matter who you wrestle almost the whole time it’s going to be tough
Bo Nickal was a BEAST in college and is a true beast today! He's a dedicated athlete that excels in everything he does. Had Gravina attended a wrestling school like Iowa, Oklahoma or Penn State this match may have ended a lot differently. You can't expect to be top level unless you're wrestling top level guys every day. Rutgers, Cornell, Stanford and Oregon are schools guys attend when they didn't get a scholarship offer for Oklahoma, Penn State or Iowa. Or they were worried they wouldn't get to start.
clark bar I thought Gravina did a good job, idk anything about his teammates. You don't wrestle a close match with a guy like Nickel without working hard
Rutgers crowd was booing Nickal's backing up BUT you could bet your life-- literally your life, Gravina would have done the same AND more to win at the end.
We were at that match Bo, Jason, and Vincenzo dancing & laying around mat before the match It showed off in their matches And we’re huge fans of Jason and Bo, but it was ridiculous
Damn. Wrestling commenters tend to be well-educated on the sport but seldom engaged in the comment section. Don't know where to start trolling these guys 😥

@@ramamandeep2 record doesnt really matter in hs either
Indubidubly 🙂
Nickal looked mortal here! Amazing job by Gravina!
Nickal in his senior year compared to this is night and day though.
Nickal had the flu
@@noscope2084 he had the I almost lost flu
Bo obviously was sick. Fun match to watch
Gravina very defensive wrestler also
Bo had the flu...good job for both
Ref was pretty bad, should have been at least two points for hands to the face happened at least 6 times
Nickal looks like he’s having a bad day
Hey whats that move called where Nickal does a duck and get kind of a half while standing?
Steven Adams its a duck under.
He was getting headbutted bad early and was pissed off about it.
I agree. He looked so depleted here. Like at 06:50 , the escape would have usually been met with an immediate taking of the leg to a trip.
I know im late 😂 but during this time i read and bo had the flu during this time of the dual meet.
That one take down at the end of the first really cost him but can’t wait to see what Gravina can do this season!
he graduated
MRxROID hahahha
Nickal was just walking through the match. Gravina gave it his all and still couldn't get it done. Walk in the park for Nickal.
Walk in the park? He barely won.
Jerry Lisby he had the flu, and yeah he barely won but he wasn’t trying his hardest
Gravina had mono and almost beat him.
Bullshit call by the ref on Gravina 1st takedown.

Great job by Nick hanging in with one of if not the most dangerous wrestler in the last 20+ years
Indubitably ☺️
7:14 oh my
Nice to see the elegant victory of technical superiority over primitive bulling.
Gravina took it to him, atta boy!
clark bar I thought Gravina did a good job, idk anything about his teammates. You don't wrestle a close match with a guy like Nickel without working hard
clark bar The story is he had the flu, any slapping didn't cause the score to be as close as it was lol
Man...what are you smokin…?
Rutgers crowd was booing Nickal's backing up BUT you could bet your life-- literally your life, Gravina would have done the same AND more to win at the end.
Bo was being toxic with the stale mates💀
Thanks
Nickal had on the Nike Furys which was released this year. This shows college athletes get products earlier!
Truly groundbreaking bro he’s going to jail for sure
gravina was sooooo close!
Gravina wrestled good but Bo was sick thats the mane reason gravina did so well
@@rylanmcclure2070 he had "I'm wrestling a guy from NJ flu."
@@jackchalance3542 The same guy Nickel pinned the year before. I'm pretty sure he wasn't intimidated.
@@blakkat4126 stop living in the past loser.
Bo is the best. ☺️
Btw Nickal was sick wrestling this
Bo is THE man. Bo is super human. Bo B. Bad. 🙂
He had the flu....no big deal.
Bo will pin him at nationals....
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When you arent nearly as good so you resort to slapping and being overly rough
Fred Flintstone style.
ADezii overly rough? Shows nickal can't handle well when it gets tough.
Johny Rodriguez Bo had the flu tho.... Bo’s plenty tough enough, but no one wants to get smacked in the face, especially when your sick
@@johnyrodriguez6619 Looks like he won despite the headbutts, bad calls, and emotionally fragile rule violations by his opponent.
Nice job Bo!
7:15 older dudes like “tf.. haha”
Interesting counter to the two on one(Russian tie?) I've never seen or noticed, he ducks under same side as it, and takes the head with the other arm
go Rutgers!
Mans a god
Bo his junior year was his toughest
Bo "Dark Souls" Nickal
Nickel was suffering from the flu in this match and still beat a pretty good wrestler. If Nickel was healthy, it's not even close.
Wow. Who would have thought Gravina would not get stuck. Gravina is small and weak. And from Jersey.
Did gravina ever become all-american?
I dont like seeing my guy get head butted like that.
Nickal skeered and stallin?
Red was doing bad fakes
We were at that match
Bo, Jason, and Vincenzo dancing & laying around mat before the match
It showed off in their matches
And we’re huge fans of Jason and Bo, but it was ridiculous
bo had the flu
Could these announcers be anymore in the bag for Bo Nickal. Cmon !!
I’m not 100% clear on the rules. If they awarded two points to the Ruckers guy for a takedown how then did he restart them because of a stalemate?
It's a stalemate but with Gravina in control. So they went back to center with Bo under...I guess...
Makes me laugh when people say stuff like they were sick. Obviously they haven’t seen Spencer’s interview “excuses are for wusses “ 😀
Bo Nickal has the best ILL GO LIMP DEAD WEIGHT EVER...LET ME STAND UP, GO LIMP, GET THAT POINT THEN MAYBE REVERSE/PIN...it's all good
Damn. Wrestling commenters tend to be well-educated on the sport but seldom engaged in the comment section.
Don't know where to start trolling these guys 😥
U talking about all these clowns that like gravina? Lol
@@imsmoother9435 some of them are like, wow he had to stall to win, and Bo was sick at the time so ya
Double knee pad🤦♂️
Makes sense he’s torn both acl’s
That ref was terrible
Bro they didn’t count an escape point
In the second period Bo went for the reversal but Rut won the position and got two
Bo had the flu and he still won lol
Gravina had mono and almost won.
Bo had to stall to barely win.
Bru, he was sick
He had the flu?
🔥🔥
a serious injury
1:47 💘🔥
👇 👇 👇💚
Way to go Gravina !! He was a stalling punk.
Who also happened to have the flu
Gravina won they didn't give him the 2 points for the takedown
Are you talking about the one at 5:35? That was a mat return, Bo hadn’t made an escape from ref’s position yet. So, no takedown points.
What are you talking about lmao
Gravina did a good job with the cocky Bo Dime.
NJ > Everyone
