CyHawk Wrestling Week Discussion

[Cylife]

Good thing dresser knows best about gaitan/euton. I don’t think he drops down unless he’s quite a bit better at 65 than 74. Carr should have a good feel for how high gaitan could place at 65 as well. If he’s a fringe AA at 65 he might as well move back up and be a fringe at 74.

Euton won the wrestle off. Euton/Gaitan is better than Gaitan/riggins

Euton did not wrestle off Gaitan

Euton did not wrestle off Gaitan

False

False

Wasn’t it reported Euton won 2 ?

I guess I was just going by the wrestle offs that were held publicly. When was Euton v MJ ?

Not overly confident team score wise, but excited to see Frost/Ayala, Ech/Parco, Paniro (if healthy)/Teemer, Bockman/Arnold, CC/Buchanan, Yonger/Keuter. If Meza goes 125, I am excited to see how he handles Carver for the first time

This is exactly how Ben & I feel

Im sure you know this but there are others who likely dont. If euton weighed in at 65 vs navy then even if he could make 157 he will be limited by descent plan so this won't happen. I don't believe any one will be dropping weights in a one week time frame. (Other than kysen). For long term it may be an option.

He would have had to be in that 61 area to come down to 57.

Narrow path to victory for the Cyclones, but there is a path. I am certainly not predicting it but I'm excited to see where some of our guys are at.

125- ISU slightly favored
133 - ISU slightly favored
141 - ISU slightly favored
149 - Iowa slightly favored
157 - Iowa favored
165 - Iowa heavily favored
174 - Iowa heavily favored
184 - Iowa favored
197 - Iowa favored
Hwt - ISU favored

In his interview Dresser seems to indicate Johnson is good to go which is great. He also said that Euton and MJ both were weighing in at 165 which is slightly confusing to me. Not sure if this is a ploy to try and avoid Brands at 174 for MJ who might be a bad matchup for him? Not sure, I do hope we aren't planning on having both Euton and MJ available and sending Riggins out there.

If Brands is 74, why not bump up euton vs brands and go with Gaitan vs Caliendo? Gaitan wrestles similar to Garvin and could keep that close, and it's not like Brands is gonna throw up tons of points on Euton

 

[TABack]

This really went from ESPN last year to paywalled big 10 event. Horse ****.

 

[matclone]

My takeaway from the interviews: I think Ech needs to put on a little more muscle.
Other than that, he was outstanding as usual.

I like that strategy. I bet MJ goes 174 and Euton goes 165 but we’ll see.

Im going to be in Vegas this weekend. Whats your guys thoughts on if the sportsbook will have big10+ and be willing to put wrestling on a screen?

 

[matclone]

Based on Dresser's comments, the lineup for this dual at 125, 141, and 165 isn't settled yet. Glad to hear that Paniro seems to be healthy enough to go.

Or really anyone with a pulse.

With it being CFB and CBB season, the answer is probably none of them. Best off picking one you like and having wrestling on a tablet or your phone.

I'm refusing to give them money. Petty, I realize. But it's the principal of the thing and it pisses me off. I'll listen to our guys on the radio in my earbuds and have the football game on. My son will know how were doing vs the hawks based on my body language and how hard I'm trying not to cuss.
