Seen it before with Iowa when they bumped Arnold up and he beat Feldkamp. Just something to keep in mind. Because Ferrari would put up a better fight than the 197 now.
2025 Iowa vs ISU
- Thread starter crablegs
- Start date
Bumping up Ferrari to wrestle Elam would be pretty crazy even for TnT and Bob. Elam is a 4 time AA and a weight up.
Nothing is crazier than TNT and Bob. If I’m wrong I’m wrong that’s just my gut feeling.
Feels like we are due some good karma. A couple years ago we had the better squad but two head scratching calls sent matches their way.
It would be malpractice not to have Elam watching film of both endene and Ferrari imo. It will be interesting because I think you are right but they’d have to let Ferrari plan for 197 ahead of time so he’s not cutting to 184 and then trying to take on a 197 Elam. I couldn’t believe when Arnold beat Feldkamp a couple yrs ago
My current view of the dual:
125- Toss-up
133- Iowa favored
141- Iowa State favored
149- Iowa State heavy favorite
157- Toss-up
165- Iowa heavy favorite
174- Iowa favored
184- Iowa favored
197- Iowa State heavy favorite
Hwt- Iowa State favored
Each school favored at 4 weights with 2 toss-ups. Should be one hell of a dual.

I actually think the biggest favorite is Kennedy at 74.
I do think it’s very realistic that Iowa goes Arnold 84 and Angelo 197, especially if it’s close heading to 184.
Yes. I want to give him max time to recover. Starting at 25, or 33 could be disastrous if Frost struggles with the cut it could lead to bonus.
And Dean also cuts a lot of weight too. He’s a big 125 pounder
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised especially if they are down in the dual.
