Kyle Snyder had the weight of the team on his shoulders, with the Buckeyes down by four coming into the last match of the night. The best pound-for-pound wrestler on the planet needed a major decision to end Penn State's 42-match win streak.
Things didn't go according to plan.
It's been a long time since Snyder gave up a takedown to a college wrestler, but No. 6 Nick Nevills managed to do it Saturday night in front of more than 6,500 Penn State partisans. Snyder responded as you'd expect, and took Nevills down six times during the match.
