TF, MD, Decision, tech fall, wrestling Mendoza now.
Iowa is not closing the gap, in fact, it is moving in the opposite direction. There recruiting has been abysmal. The future is not bright. TnT represents the old guard. They may still be really good coaches, but at this level, if you are not cutting edge, you are a dull butter knife and money can’t buy consistent success
The difference between our program and iowas is literally night and day. The sun is setting on theirs and the sun is rising on ours. No matter how we would fair this year against PSU, there is hope in our program. Iowa has only despair. They can throw as much money as they want at it, it’s like putting bandaids on the titanic.
You go boy! In my mind, he’s already champ, it’s just a formality the rest of the season.
actually, I love the confidence. Honestly, bringing Jax in right now, he will be on a confidence high. He seems to rise to the occasion when the moment arises. go pokes 
I said Vega was a clear favorite.
Lockett beating flos #1 p4p wrestler would be a big upset. Messenbrink has destroyed everyone he's wrestled this year.
I would not say we are a “clear favorite” at any weight. Jax would be our most probable prospect at a championship, if/when he wrestles this year. Lockett has as a good or better chance to medal as anyone else on the team. Vega and Robideau have shown brilliance and have a sold chance to podium. It is truly a freshmen rich team and sometimes Freshmen can be inconsistent
Nebraska wrestled scared or they didn’t give a crap Tonight.
Seidel majored Tyler Knox. One of the other stud FR at 133.
I’m glad Jax is going but that is a deep and tough weight. Going to be a fun on at nationals.

Carter Young was beating #1 Van Ness from PSU 7-1 in the first period. He ended up being teched by an insane 31-15 score.
That is twice in a week that a PSU wrestler was cradled, taken to their back, but not pinfelled.
Davis lost anyway to Bailey, and Van Ness took it as an insult.
Always like Young so I say this with no disrespect. He got absolutely ran off the mat after that 7 point move. SVN just playing catch and release the rest of the time.
Watching Missouri v UNC and man this ref is butchering the stall calls. UNC 174 just got unsportsmanlike for clapping in the refs face after he called him on his third and I agree with the kids frustration (not the clapping though).
He either tired out or got bullied. He was taking it to Van Ness.
some from column A, some from column B.
He won a funky scramble in a weird position that got him back points. Which was really good wrestling on his part for about a minute. I hate to say it because I always liked him but he def wasn’t taking it to Van Ness. After that it was all back foot.
Honestly, I sped it up on his match. I only saw slowed it down for the last little bit.
Melvin Miller. Probably gonna reclassify to be able to compete next year.
Ahh Miller. Duh. Thanks.
Man can you imagine:
133 - Jax
141 - Vega
149 - Bo
157 - Rob
165 - Miller
174 - Dee

Would love Miller but I wouldn’t sleep on Routledge.
Seems that Ross could use a year of redshirt to develop into a heavyweight.
I will always feel that way about 165 and up. Most (not all) benefit from a RS year.
With that being said, it will be surprising if we throw mower out there instead of Ross. So that means one year transfer maybe? Which looking at the current top 15 guys there’s not a ton of options out there. So I do think it’s possible Ross is our guy.
Braxton Amos maybe? I know he almost came here out of high school but that was with a completely different staff obviously.
No idea honestly but if I had the choice between wrestling for Chris Bono or David Taylor I know which one I’d choose.
Christian Carroll has no ill feelings towards Oklahoma State and he is rated higher and is younger.
