Tough slate. Split would be fantastic. Can beat NW/Indiana at home and Maryland/Wisconsin on the road. Then it becomes a question of can they steal one of Minnesota/Nebraska?

Navy is always a good way to start the season. You have to be tough to wrestle for them.

Why u think we got a shot? Or which individual matchups ?
Looking at their lineup assuming everyone is healthy:

125: Knox vs. DeLuca - Knox favored but DeLuca is very good.
133: Ungar vs. Crookham - Crookham W but 50% chance he's injured by the time we get to this duel.
141: Dunnigan vs. Bailey - Bailey W.
149: B. Harer vs. Block: Block likely favored, but he did lost to Clark last year at Big 10's.
157: C. Harer vs. Williams: Williams likely favored but could see this going either way.
165: Barbosa vs. Schubert: I'd lean Schubert here.
174: Ford vs. Arnold: I'd favor Arnold.
184: SCW vs. Ferrari: Ferrari should win.
197: Cotton vs. Ludington: Cotton should win.
285: Herrera vs. Kueter: Kueter favored.

Would take a good amount of upsets don't love our chances.

Yea when looking at these matchups we would need the perfect storm and Crookham to be out..

We would most likely need to win 6 bouts unless we get a lucky pin/inj def somewhere.. 125/133/149/157/165/197 are winnable matches if Crookham is out.

I don't think you see Crookham early this year at all my guess is he's 2nd semester only . Kale Peterson will probably be 133. Williams and Block could flip flop as well time will tell

Agreed I don’t think Block is making 149’s all year he’s huge. I also agree with kiddagger 125/133/149/157/165/197 are definitely all winnable matches especially if crookham is out. I have a feeling he’s got the bag and not gonna be the same guy he was 2 years ago.

Individual matchups that Ryan listed out below intrigue me the most. The stretch of 149 - 197 particularly is what I would like to see as a litmus test for some of our guys. I know Ferrari has a reputation for keeping it close, but he has shown he can also put up points against lesser guys... wanna see how Shane fares there.

This site has our schedule out but not sure if all the dates are correct. And can do matchups on this site.
Interesting. Good find. Never saw this site. Some things don't match Track and other releases. I'm not a fan of some of those day splits of Sat/Mon and Sun/Mon so hopefully this isn't accurate.
Edit: that's last year's schedule with this year's dates. Odd.
