BEG is a big 10 show on YouTube. Even at Iowa’s strongest lineup, they can’t beat OSU. I AGREE
BEG. Has it OSU over Iowa
- Thread starter tom_v31
- Start date
It will be a great matchup for sure. The prize is nationals though.
Will Taylor ever get a dual done with Penn State? Would be good for the sport.
That used to be the Southern Scuffle
I miss us at the Scuffle. A holiday treat.
I (like most) have it 5-5 on paper
Iowa: 133, 149, 157 (with Teemer in somewhat good shape), 165, 197
Oklahoma State: 125, 141, 174, 184, 285
I think Oklahoma State is much more likely to pick up bonus, opportunities at 125/141 and definitely now 285 watching the way Wyatt worked over Feldman (who is an absolute unit) and Trumble (who I think Kueter is a very similar wrestler to) I can see fireworks in the 133 match as you know Witcraft won't be afraid to do something crazy which can completely change the dual (for better or worse). I don't see Iowa getting bonus at 149, 157, 165, 197. Heck, let's be honest, Amine will force it to be a SV match lol (have to be careful since Iowa gets generous stall calls in Carver but generally if you hold center, the refs won't cave to the crowd)
Will be interesting also how both coaches handle. DT won't prioritize a non conference dual with the post season coming up but on the flip side, man, you know he would love to send a message to Iowa he's already jumping them. I wouldn't rule out the guys being fresh for this before starting hard workouts through Big 12s (he'll 100% not prioritize that) to peak for NCAAs.

Unfortunately we need this one on the schedule. And ideally a couple more big ones. Our attendance has been good the last few years but this dual can get over 10k. That’s good for the sport, specifically in the state of Oklahoma. I understand “only March matters” but I would be surprised if there isn’t pressure to have one home marquee matchup in GIA each year.
