Spencer Lee wrestled the craziest period of his college career! Matt Ramos went out there and gave it his all, butat the end Spencer Lee came out on top
Yeah, if he's remotely healthy no one is beating Spencer Lee over 3 periods this year. If he's losing it's going to getting caught like that and pinned.
I'm afraid this is a harbinger. I'll admit I do not know how tough this weight is, or if somebody was having a good day or a bad day... or both... but... Spencer should have defeated this guy soundly.
Ok he got taken down & thrown but still, I don't get how a fall before the 1st periods over isn't defeating someone soundly. That's how it's ultimately defined in the sport. There's no way to earn more points (in a single match) in a dual meet or tournament than a fall. And I guess you missed the announcers talking up Ramos' bonafides in freestyle just as the match began.
@@tjm6983 The best guy in the nation doesn't let #9 get 8 points on him. He is the better wrestler and got the fall... but I think its a Harbinger... Imagine what #2 can do.
Getting put on his back turned out to be a good experience for Spencer. He fought off the pin, and had the satisfaction of pinning a very high quality opponent in Matt Ramos. Spencer is so used to rolling over opponents he needed the close call to remind him he must never underestimate an opponent. Very good match by both wrestlers. A great one to win and a tough one to lose.
yeah I bet that close call is gonna be in the back of his head the rest of the season making him a slightly more cautious and better wrestler. Dude is insane
@@marcreiss1183 well cause it wasn't even big tens let alone nationals. He's lost before & still won the title every year. Not that I expect him to lose this year but just sayin. Still I think they may have sweated the throw a teensie bit more than the takedown. Or not, but I know it got me feeling a little worried. What's important is Spencer sweated/didn't sweat any of it at just the right balance/amount!
No doubt Matt got into Spencer’s head and he came out at NCAA tournament the same way going for it big time so props to him and it paid off for Ramos. This first match was a foreshadowing of what was to come. I do feel bad for Spencer because same thing happened in HS denied a 4th title. Its like a curse
It’s probably pretty amazing the amount of confidence Spencer Lee gives to his opponents when they’re able to put up points on him even in spite of getting pinned lol
I always root for the under dog except with Spencer. This was a good match not that many that are this good. This kid is good too maybe this can be a repeat in the finals.
Spencer had a feeling this kid would be a problem, and a problem he was, RIP to Spencer run but one hell of a match by Ramos to move on to the finals 👀
Spencer is a once in a generation wrestler, he’s so fun too watch!! And Iowas wrestling team is gonna be next level for the next 4 years, just had one of the best recruiting classes ever in any sport… picked up 4 wrestlers ranked in the top 2 at their weight, two of those number 1 at their weight, and Kueter and Chittum are number 1 and number 2 p4p in country, and we picked up another top 5 guy in Block!! Bring on the titles baby!!
A wrestler like gomez style type can beat spencer you can't beat spencer on the mat but if you can stay neutral good wrestler on their feet can beat spencer they need to attack spencer body locks and drop downs I think a lot of wrestler is cautious with spencer if they go at him they have a chance just like that he was on his back but don't ever wrestle him on the mat stay on their feet
Watching this match vs Perdue I was in shock watching Lee get taken down and nearly pinned, Lee doesn't see the ceiling very often and you could see how amped he was after Lee beat the lights out of him after that. Was it just under estimating the opponent in the opening mins? I am taking a guess so.
Of course they "realize" that... But they respect the hussle by both guys, 16 points between the two of them in the first period and with all the scrabbles, to almost pinned, to pinned.
@@pauldarling330 it’s definitely a crazy moment but the way spencer Lee makes it look so easy and instantly comes back and finishes the match is something that goes over everybody’s head
Great match. S. Lee caught slipping by a really good wrestler, but was able to avoid a pin and get back on his feet and continue on. What is even more incredible than that is, while the entire place is going crazy while Lee is on his back, then going crazy again when Lee was about to pin Ramos, was the pure emotionless response from the chick on the end of the Iowa bench. NOTHING gets to her.
Its insane. You usually see top high school wrestling score in bunches like that. Not top wrestlers in college doing it to other top wrestlers lmao dudes insane
I don't know if you read these or not. I admire you as much or more than any athlete... Don't let the crowd get to you... I did the same thing one time .... The kid got a reversal on me and the crowd erupted... After I pinned him I yelled to his fans "Take that home with you" I hated myself for that... Don't ever let your emotions take over...They could cause you to make a mistake and lose.... I always admire these athletes with ICE in their veins. They stay EVEN KIEL...ie Bryce Young QB Alabama...Jalen Hurts former BAMA QB current Super Bowl Eagles QB..... TUA Tagovailoa former BAMA QB current Dolphins QB...These guys maintain mental control NO MATTER WHAT..... You can too I KNOW YOU CAN and it might be enough to WIN a close match for you.....
@@gianpolignano2632 Lee is still in College, and coming off double Knee surgery, the world team trial could be on his mind, but only Lee would know that. He is taking it one match at a time, trying to stay healthy.
Who’s here when Matt Ramos pinned Spencer Lee 😮
What do you think they said to each other when they shook hands after this match?
@@norman1111 idk man
Crazy
After watching this, even though Ramos got pinned in the first period here, you can see how the upset was possible. What action from both wrestlers.
And everybody doubted me. I just said it was a good possibility and I got clowned on... Look at the doubters now! 😂😂😂
Please stay healthy Spencer. We're going to need you all season.
Didn’t age well😢
That lat drop was sick. The way Lee puts up points, I never doubted he was going to win once he got out of his back exposure.
Yeah, if he's remotely healthy no one is beating Spencer Lee over 3 periods this year. If he's losing it's going to getting caught like that and pinned.
@@mikeymoss6281 look at you
@Clone wars fan well, he did get pinned lol
@@mikeymoss6281 but Ramos also had an insurmountable lead in the score when Spencer got pinned. Ramos also didnt "catch" Lee with the pin.
This aged well!
Lee after getting that drop “Ight you had your fun” 😂😂😂
awesome job by both wrestlers, matt ramos is no joke
Nice throw says Spencer. Bad ass match on both sides.
Ramos got revenge tho
Then sadly he does get end up on his back by Ramos
Excuse me for my ignorance but do the shoulders have to be pinned to the ground to get the fall?
Crazy dude I wish I had seen this before today...ramos wasn't gonna lose twice
Damn. Lee is something else
If Ramos would’ve gotten out of Lee’s legs and to either side, he would’ve pinned Lee
that spoilermaker magic rubbing off a little bit lol
Dope!!

@@Charlee4459 Lee is 2-0 against #2, Patrick Glory. Lee had never wrestled this kid before. Knowing your opponent’s strengths is very important.
@@rogerdodger4212 Yes... I promise you that Spencer Lee watched Film... especially with his limited matches this year. Not a good enough excuse.
@@Charlee4459 Watching film isn’t the same. He pinned him in the first period. Get over it.
Still got tossed w/back pts. and TD
Damn 19-2 yea he was going to lose lmao this Ramos guy has been tested,
Mistake: letting lee get on top
Holy crap I think Lee was pinned there
Ramos tossed Lee around like a small drunken toddler.
💀
Who’s here after Ramos did the impossible at NCAA’s?
Wasn’t impossible if he made it happen. Anyone can be beat.
This is so sad coming back to, foreshadowing what was to come.. happy for Ramos though but damn
Spencer respected Ramos' throw even in a win.
They’re going to be using this lat drop in training/teaching videos.

Fast forward two months!
Lol, and he got pinned fr fr just now at nationals.. big oof 😅😢😊
Matt living in Spencer’s mind rent free since this day.
Matt wanted it ngl. I saw his quarter final interview and he was hungry to take Spencer down. Congrats to him, dude earned it
Taking down Lee must've turned up the difficulty level considerably after that. Great match by both guys.
And boom Ramos got revenge and pinned Lee when it actually mattered.
This aged well
Oh how the turn tables
turn tabled
3:23 ”nice throw, nice throw…. You caught me lacking” 😂
I think he says “you fucking launched me”
Lololol at no point did any coach on the Iowa side sweat the takedown.
they did at the throw 💀

Ramos first take down is the exact same slide by Rivera did to him at 2018 Midlands
If Ramos could have controlled Lee's arm on that throw he would have pinned Lee here.
If you don’t pin Spencer on some crazy shit you just don’t have a chance 🤷🏻♂️
Aged super well lmao

Incredible...he was shook, but man, once Lee gets to his A game, he is almost unstoppable. Unreal.
Damn dude that was close. As a diehard Hawkeye fan, I think Spencer needed this. That is a textbook lat drop.💯
That was badass. Good match from both guys
It’s probably pretty amazing the amount of confidence Spencer Lee gives to his opponents when they’re able to put up points on him even in spite of getting pinned lol
They both are cadet world champions,. Ramos isn't an average guy. He will get an NCAA title I bet
Ramos just beat him today
@@mr4224 crazy match!! Happy for Ramos and Spencer still goes down as one of the greatest collegiate wrestlers EVER
Foreshadowing future events. Unfortunate. Hope to see Spencer win Gold one day.
I always root for the under dog except with Spencer. This was a good match not that many that are this good. This kid is good too maybe this can be a repeat in the finals.
watching that made me root for the underdog against Spencer though lol
heh heh.
Man you had to pin lee there he is always gonna come back
1:07 portentous throw
Spencer had a feeling this kid would be a problem, and a problem he was, RIP to Spencer run but one hell of a match by Ramos to move on to the finals 👀
Matt lost the battle but he won the war!
He clearly had figured something out.about lee that nobody else could
How was this really that surprising..his knees are blown out..and this kid has threw him to his back before.
“He’s always going to be in range because it’s spencer lee” everything went down from there

Not for nothing this kids knees are definitely both still shot. My knee took a year and a half to recover 80%
Wow!!
In his prime, Kolat beats Spencer
Speculation at its best!
If Spencer doesn’t have any knee issues then Spencer loses to no one…
Oh, the lateral drop, my absolute favorite move when I wrestled. I still think it’s the coolest move besides a hip toss.
In head to head ramos is better than lee.
You’re funny
I would love to see lee up at 133 to verse rby, before I thought he would lose but with his skills on top I think he’s got it
