Title: Nebraska

They lose to UNC. Kinda shocking for a team seen as a top 10ish team.

Nebraska ranked 14th, and UNC ranked 20th by Intermat.  UNC is on the rise, not exactly a reach.

After seeing the results at the CK tourney (where NE had a number of relatively high placers) I was thinking that they were ranked too low. Not sure what to make of them now...or UNC.

I guess I follow college wrestling pretty closely and most of the guys on UNC I haven't heard much of. I was shocked about them beating Nebraska. I know Nebraska has a couple weak spots, but overall they are tough with lots of AA potential.

Gotta agree; but UNC is on the climb. Nice to see some teams outside the Big10 make some moves. Healthy to have some more southern involvement. When Missoure made their ascent, I'm sure they left plenty of savvy wrestling folks scratchin' their heads. Good for the sport.
