Penn State wrestling did what Penn State wrestling does Friday night against an elite opponent.
The top-ranked team in the land took on No. 2 Iowa in Happy Valley before a packed Bryce Jordan Center, and took care of business with a 23-14 win.
Penn Stater and Dallas Cowboys superstar Micah Parsonsย was there, as was Penn State wrestling legend and UFC up-and-comer Bo Nickal.
Parsons, Nickal and 15,996 others saw Penn Stateโs Roman Bravo-Young win his 45th consecutive match, pinning Iowaโs Brody Teske, who was once RBYโs teammate at Penn State.
The people of Twitter had plenty to say, and here are some of the highlights.
BJC was jumpin! Appreciate all you PSU fans.

Iโll just say it.
If I wrestled Roman Bravo-Young, Iโd lose.

Itโs been over half an hour since the duel ended and @Hawks_Wrestling still hasnโt posted the final score.

Cael Sanderson deserves a blank check and whatever the hell he needs and wants and PSU. #WeAre

And Iowa goes home crying once again. We fucking own your bitch assess. Youโll always play second fiddle to Penn State as long as Cael Sanderson is around.
