Iowa v. Missouri
----------------------
Illinois v Little Rock
UNI v. NC State
----------------------
OKST v. Cornell
This second quarter is a BANGER quarter. The first two matches, along with the subsequent third match will all be hotly contested.
I'll be doing a deep dive on potential match-ups. Can't wait.
Lastly, I'm saddened that ISU is not involved.

This OHST v. MINN dual is going to be EPIC! Need everyone to be healthy, someone to bonus who otherwise might not, and possibly, for some breathing room, get a win by someone who otherwise isn't supposed to.
Awesome!
Go Buckeyes!!!!!!!

wrestlestat has Bucks losing 97 and 285. I would think this is a dual we see Nic wrestle in.

These rankings underscore the problem the Buckeyes need to address by March. They have a lot of good guys but only one who is great. A few guys need to jump levels.

Ohio state is favored 16-15 on wrestlestat but if you enter Bouzakis to wrestle it changes to 19-12. I think Mccrone has a very little shot at winning and they will wrestle Bouzakis. Also somehow Hopke is favored. Wrestlestat is being very, generous to Minnesota. Every coin flip would have to go Minnesota way.
Big favorites Davino, Mendez, Stiles, Kharchla
Big favorites Minnesota Mcenelley
125/157/165/197/285 all should be close. Minnesota would have to win all of these imo.
If i were the coaching staff i would sit Stiles, Bouzakis, and Geog round one to give them a better recovery time and make sure they are fresh for Minnesota.

Don’t dismiss Virginia Tech, Nick. It would hardly be a shocker if the Hokies upset Minnesota.

Virgina tech is solid bit Minnesota should win. Can Virginia Tech wrestle henson and keep him in redshirt still or is that only freshman year? It would probably take henson. In the next few years virginia tech will be much improved with bassett and miller coming.

Slick Nick, that is a rule for freshman only.
I do think Minnesota will be a favorite over VT.

TR really ruffled some PSU fans feathers by saying PSU should be at this event. PSU fans are all over him on X calling him all kinds of things.
