I was thinking go neutral at the time as well, but down was the right call.
Would have been very difficult to avoid a stalling call for 2 minutes on his feet. Ref was aggressive with the stall calls last night.
Plus it's only 18 seconds, if you get taken down - which he did - odds are u give up the 1 riding time point and you lost the opportunity for that 1st escape.
My only complaint with the ref that match was at the end he never started the 5 second count when Trax was standing and OSU had his leg. Would not have made it to 5 as he moved up to the waste, but if you start the count when you should it may get in the OSU guys head.
