Ohio State @ National Duals

• Westie101

  

  They ended up as the #3 seed in their region, should they get by Boise State first round, they will get a rematch with Nebraska that I think they should win. After that they would have Okie State where we would see Oliver vs. Stieber. I personally almost hope it doesnt happen, would love to save it for nationals!

  Westie, I understand what you mean about saving the Stieber/Oliver match for the national finals. As a fan of the sport, I want to see it now AND in the national finals. I think the percentages are good that they both are finalists but it's definitely not a guarantee (considering how competitive the top 4 or 5 guys are at 133). With that said, it would be intriguing to see what adjustments Tom Ryan/John Smith and their staffs make (if any at all) depending on the outcome of their first meeting. Either way, OSU needs to take care of Nebraska first for this scenario to come to life. Go Bucks.

  This is called a "direct link" but since there isn't much info yet it's hard to tell if it is useful or if it requires registration.

  http://www.livesportsvideo.com/golive/goliveevents2.asp?q=NWCA I signed up and watch the matches. OSU was not available, but will be tonight. Nice quality and it's free.

  Happy the bucks have outdone their seed, but I don't think they are wrestling well enough to knock off okie state right now. Its going to take some crazy upsets to pull this one out.
• iGranby

  

  Even if logan were to beat Oliver, i Dont think tOSU has enough fire power to beat okie.

  Tessari loses a Close one to #2 Parks, 3-2.
  Way closer then anticipated, at least by me
  
  9-3 team score
• The2cKDude

  Demas over White 3-2, team score now sits at 9-6, still within reach! 165, 174, and 184 all seem to be tight contests. If we can take all 3 it's game on!
• athlete37

  

  whoops :-/

  ouch

  Any updates
• The2cKDude

  Didn't win another match, final was 24-6 I believe? Somewhere near that anyway.
  
  I will never understandnthis strategy of wrestling grandiminico (157?) at 174 and bumping Heflin. Especially with how good Magrum looked in his first weekend back.
• snugglyhippo

  Not saying I agree, but you are conceding that Perry would have beaten Heflin, so why not take the better wrestler (Heflin over Magrum) to win at 184, therefore giving up 4 and getting 3...net -1. If you wrestle Perry with Hef, and Mag at 184, you likely at least give up 3 and 3, net -6, and perhaps bonus points. It would have been even uglier if they did not bump in this fashion. It ultimately didn't matter b/c obviously Hef and Camp lost.
• The2cKDude

  I wouldn't think Heflin is better then Magrum at 184, Magrum is much bigger and stronger, about equal rankings inn their respective weights. I would have taken my chances and wrestled my best lineup
