Discussion Topic: Bucks @ Hawks Friday
Hank Kornblut added to this discussion on January 24, 2017

Assuming no Bo or Snyder, Kollin Moore is the only clear favorite. 133, 141, 149, 165 and 184 could all go either way. Since the dual is in Carver-Hawkeye, you can assume the Hawks have an edge in all those match ups excepting 133. And Cory Clark is very tough. A healthy Bo and Snyder would make this a highly anticipated bout. But with the Hawks coming off consecutive losses and the Bucks struggling at 125, 157, 174 and 285, I'd temper my expectations.

Was it just me or did Jake Ryan look more like the "old Ryan" the other night where he waited more before shooting, and keeping the match closer with better defense?

Buckeyes win 10 of 10. Iowa sucks!

Nice preview off their site. It appears Bo will be back?

If Bo wrestles I call Bucks 6 matches to 4. Also call a win for Micah. All the pressure on Sorenson after 2 big stage losses. Go Bucks!

Hank:

You are a mover and a shaker.
Plus you have big $$ (own a restaurant, etc.).
So...
Within the framework of the NCAA rules, please see if you can charter-flight Snyder into Iowa City, for the match, then zip him right back to Russia, for the Yariguin.
Can you make this happen?

JK, I love Josh Fox (son of my former teammate), he is and has been a total team player.
Plus he's a fighter, and will give us everything he has.
Go Josh/Go Bucks!!

Oh, I'll have to tape the match, heading to see my middle son perform that night in his school's production of The Wizard of Oz.
He's a flying monkey.
Yep, a flying monkey.

Casey: Your compliments are appreciated but the idea that I have money is undercut by the costs of raising two kids, a wife, a house, a dog, etc....

Plus I run a meat business...thin margins...that sells sandwiches. Hardly a restaurant.

But if I had a private jet and lots of money, you can bet I'd fly around watching the USA compete in wrestling events around the world.

Generally speaking, Josh Fox has a good shot to win against Iowa. With Stoll out for season, they have a very weak backup.

Brandon and I did a Q&A about the upcoming Iowa dual with Land Grant Holy Land wrestling writer Dan Vest. Check it out.

We also wrote a preview for Bloodround.com

Tell us how right or wrong we are.

Very well written. Nice work Brandon and Ben.

I'll take Bo at 174 but Sorenson is a stubborn favorite over Micah in my mind. But...to quote Mike Rodriguez...I'm frequently wrong.

I think Carton is also a small favorite at 141. If I were the Bucks, Pletcher would have spent the week drilling head outside singles to Carton's right side. Gulibon shredded Carton for the last two minutes with that takedown.

Interesting to note that this dual could come down to 285. Josh Fox can take out the Iowa back up and be a hero for wrestling eternity.

Martin v Brooks? Yeesh. Martin has to go up top. Conventional offense is a bad idea against the big boys at this weight. Think Greco MM.

An amusing tweet by Luke Pletcher I found while browsing InterMat.

Has Ohio State ever won in Carver Hawkeyes Arena?
