  Penn State is going to roll over OSU!!!!!
• jmog

  Yeah, OSU redshirted a bunch of studs this year to make a big run the next couple years at a national title.
  
  Jordon and Hunter come to mind.

  I think the Bucks win at 133, 141, 149 and 197.
• sackerdrag

  Actually Ed Ruth is out so the Buckeyes will be favored at 184 as well. Unfortunately it will likely come down to bonus points and I believe Penn State will win the dual.

  Didn't hear about that, but I know the Alton brothers are doubtful for the dual, so that could make it a little interesting.

  Agree with 133 and 141, but 149 is questionable and 197 is a toss-up between #3 McIntosh (10-0) vs #5 Heflin (8-0).

  125 Mega dec. Roberts-Megaludis tough but I think Roberts keeps it to a decision. 3-0 PSU
  133 DiJulius dec. Gulibon/Conaway-Gulibon highly touted coming out but Johnni has a win over him this summer and is wrestling great. 3-3
  141 Stieber pin Retherford-Zane Retherford is a stud freshman but those on other sights calling for him to beat Stieber are on crack. 9-3 Bucks
  149 Paddock dec. Beitz-Alton still out until January Beitz (backup 141) has been filling in. 12-3 Bucks
  157 Vollrath dec. Languis-Vollrath is a quality backup and is ranked top 20 (at least until Alton returns). Randy Languis has wrestled great this year but I think will be a bit overmatched here. 12-6 Bucks.
  165-Taylor pin Grandominico-Local kid Grandominico has done an admirable job filling in this year at 165. That said David Taylor is David Taylor. 12-12
  174 Brown maj dec. Martin-Martin is coming along but Matt Brown is a hammer who keeps the pressure on for 7 minutes. 16-12 Penn State.
  184 Court dec. Phipps-Courts has wrestled well this year but did have some "lung issues" this weekend. I don't know much about Phipps but I am hoping for bonus but not really expecting it. 16-15 PSU
  197-Heflin dec. McIntosh-I know Morgan McIntosh is a stud who had a great freshman campaign before a somewhat disappointing NCAA. After a rs last year he has returned bigger and badder. That said, people always undersell Nick Heflin. Rankings be damned, I will take the multiple time AA over the zero time AA. 18-16 Bucks
  Hvy-Lawson dec. Tavanello-I think the behemoth Lawson wins a close one over Tav. If Tavenello could find a way to pull it out it could mean the dual. 19-18 PSU
  
  This one looks really close on paper. If Courts or Paddock could find a way to score bonus that could swing the dual the other way.

  Can someone explain why Hunter has not been wrestling? I havent been following much this year which is my own fault but I have not seen him wrestle or heard of him wrestling. Thanks in advance.

  Agree with most except for Heflin dec. McIntosh, plus I think Ruth is wrestling (could be wrong??) and English may be at 149. 22-15 w/o Ruth, 26-12 w/ Ruth!
