PSU vs Iowa Dual

Assuming match on Big Ten Network.

Any chance Big XII ever comes up with a network
 
What ranking would Iowa have the past two years without all the transfers? It seems like their transfers have been the best wrestlers on their team...but I could be wrong as I don't follow wrestling closely.
One might ask the the same question about Okla State, since we faced at least four transfers last night.

Typically in wrestling these days if you are transferring D1 to D1 you are coming in for a paycheck. You are expected to be one of the best wrestlers on the team, that's why they are paying you.

Questions or complaints about transfers need to stop. It's the name of the game now. Iowa State would be doing the same thing if we had the resources to do it.
 
Won’t be a popular take but I think Iowa keeps it closer than many expect.

125 - LL decision - hasn’t been a point scorer and Cruz has been solid lately 3-0 PSU

133 - Ayala decision 3-3

141 - Bartlett major 7-3

149 - Parco decision 7-6

157 - if Kasak gets an early takedown he will wear Teemer down (much like Chittum did). Think Teemer does nothing but does just enough to win late. 7-9

165 - Caliendo is really good, just don’t think he’s on Mesenbrinks level 10-9 PSU

174 - Haines by decision 13-9

184 - Arnold will do absolutely nothing in this match after the bulletin board material, Starocci still finds a way to get bonus 17-9

197 - Both of these guys have been really darned good this year, I’ll take the vet. 17-12

285 - Kerk by major 21-12 PSU.

I think Iowa only wins 133 and 197.

I think there's a considerably higher chance that Iowa craps all over themselves than it being that close.
