Using the wrestlestat ranking is a little misleading.
Badgers have a lot of young guys in the lineup while Parkside is full of veterans.
I don't know how the individual matchups go but I think the young badgers will fare better than some of the predictions.

125 Rivera SOPH (#51) vs Corrigan JR (#4)
133 Fugitt RFR (#50) vs Chi SR (#6)
141 Bobzien RFR (#188) vs Henschel SR (#7)
149 Sheen SO (#133) vs Spuhler SR (#3)
157 Mechler JR (#123) vs Durocher SR (#7)
165 Anderson JR (#76) vs Schuh JR (#13)
174 Condon RFR (#146) vs Hemauer JR (#3)
184 Russo RFR (#158) vs Worachek SR (#3)
197 Endene JR (#155) vs Stegall SR (#15)
285 Rosenfeld SO (#80) vs Reynolds SR (#21)

I'd certainly enjoy watching this!

According to the last update from Coach Bono, Joe Zargo and Braxton Amos are wrestling this year

I say let them wrestle and find out.

How about a Round Robin with LAX, Parkside and UW the day after the DI, DII, DIII duals in LAX. Give em all 5lbs and lets roll.

Why not just have the round robin instead of the Division duals? I think this is a great idea.

Some of the older posters will remember the time (I can't even remember which decade - I suspect early in the 1990s) when the UW would dual LAX at the beginning of the season...till LAX actually won once. That tradition was relatively quickly scuttled because the UW really had nothing to gain by beating a DIII team and everything to lose. It was a low point for Davis.

We dropped out of the Wisconsin Showcase last year. What makes you guys think this would ever happen. In Bono's mind there is no upside. If you win you were suppose to win, and if you lose omg!

Purdue, Northern Illinois and UIndy (DII) did this last year - Boiler maker Duals

Why not restart the Northern Open?

Whitewater also had a dual with the Badgers back in 1985.

Wisconsin dualed Whitewater the year Thielke wrestled at Wisconsin.
