Hopefully the first half of travel works out and the Friday matches are a go. What's a guy gonna do all weekend if snowed in and there's no wrestling. Some of us didn't think to send our wives away so ...
They flew today, so it won’t be cancelled because of travel to…

Teague wrestled tough, hope he does well the rest of the season but we see why he is at Mizzou.
Troy wrestled real good scoring in takedowns, escape and back points . Impressive. Jax is unbelievably dominant. You shoot on Sergio's legs you better take him fast because if you don't you will likely get cradled and pinned especially if you don't get his leg up. Swiderski got the takedown at the end of the 1st period, but I wish he would have put the match a way with a takedown but he got himself a couple of stalling calls instead. Still he beat a tough true freshman who beat Tagen last weekend. Landon with a solid win over Travis. 1 takedown, escape and rode Teague out the whole second period. Solid win. With all the talent that Dee has he should score more than 1 takedown against his opponent. He almost gave up a takedown towards the end of the 3rd period and he would have been behind by 1. He won but not impressive. Facundo won 2 to 1 on a stalling point but needs to get a takedown or 2 in his matches. Ryder no offense and in the 3rd period gives up a takedown to lose the match. Very tough opponent though. Cody wins 2 to 0 gets an escape and rides out the 3rd period for the win. Doucet wins 5 to 1 and actually got a takedown. We need offensive development with the last 5 wrestlers. We got 2 takedowns in the last 5 matches. This seems to be a pattern. However, we did pound Missouri.

Wrestling on his knees, playing the edge and then just sitting on both knees while opponent is waiting center mat is going to bite him in a close match. He might fool the opponent but not the ref.
Maybe. I'm not saying I like that style, but so far he's an undefeated true freshman and ranked #2 in the nation. He turned it up against Caliendo when he needed to.
It looks to me like he is intentionally slowing down and controlling the pace of his matches. Maybe to make sure he doesn't run out of gas?

Dee hasn’t wrestled in a while. He’s going to have to be more aggressive and offensive if he wants to beat Messenbrink. Thought for a minute he was going to get upset tonight.
Dee doesn't wrestle like Messenbrink. Dee wins with wrestling IQ, quickness and elite body control/awareness.

Don't misunderstand, Dee's super talented but he's also put in the work and always improves.

He is +3 I think in his margins. He is so talented, he’s leaning on it.

If he doesn’t cut it loose, he will fail in March. Sorry! I’m a big fan, but I’ve moved into the fan of his potential and not his results.

Dee needs to realize he’s one of the most talented guys on the planet and put on a show. Right now, he knows he’s one of the most talented guys on the planet and thinks he can win off that.

He’s been dinged up lately, but his wolf pack is showing him up if we really want to be honest.
