Purdue has really improved too, we may not win another dual this year.

wrastle63 · January 28, 2018, 09:37:27 AM

Or we could win three duals who knows that's why they wrestle the matches.

Illinois is the closes dual that the Badgers could win, but the others are pretty much losses! It's good to be a fan of your team, but start getting more realistic wrasstle63!

There is a clear path to winning every dual. Are we going to win all 4? Probably not. "but the others are pretty much losses" -actually they aren't. All 4 of those are close if you look at results instead of just saying they have no chance.

Wrestling Thug · January 28, 2018, 10:55:21 AM

Quit it! We all have a chance at winning the lottery if we play, but most likely not! You have a whole lot of on the fence statements! Stay on your Badger side so at least we know where you stand, instead of jumping on and off the bandwagon! I do look at results and follow college wrestling pretty close and can clearly see it is unlikely that the Badgers win any of these duals! If I was Ben Askren would you agree with me?

197: Zack Chakonis (NW) dec. Eric Schultz (NEB), 10-9 (NW 3, NEB 0)
HWT: Conan Jennings (NW) tb-1 Patrick Grayson (NEB), 2-1 (NW 6, NEB 0)W)
125: #10 Sebastian Rivera (NW) major dec. Mitchell Maginnis (NEB), 17-6 (NW 10, NEB 0)
133: Jason Renteria (NEB) major dec. #19 Colin Valdiviez (NW), 15-5 (NW 10, NEB 4)
141: #12 Chad Red Jr. (NEB) dec. Alec McKenna (NW), 6-2 (NW 10, NEB 7)
149: #4 Ryan Deakin (NW) major dec. #10 Colton McCrystal (NEB), 11-2 (NW 14, NEB 7)
157: #8 Tyler Berger (NEB) dec. Shayne Oster (NW), 3-1 (NW 14, NEB 10)
165: #11 Isaiah White (NEB) tech. fall Michael Sepke (NW), 21-6 (NEB 15, NW 14)
174: #18 Johnny Sebastian (NW) major dec. Beau Breske (NEB), 11-3 (NW 18, NEB 15)
184: #7 Taylor Venz (NEB) dec. Mitch Sliga (NW), 2-1 (NEB 18, NW 18)
Note: Nebraska won by criteria 3.15.3 (total match points, 68-66) (NEB 19, NW 18)

So we have no chance to beat Nebraska when they won by criteria and we lost by 2?
We would be favored at 165, 174, 184, and 197. Eli lost by 1 to Red early. Crone can beat Berger. Also at 125 we could beat Maginnis that isn't as likely though. So?

HWT: Deuce Rachal (ILL) dec. #19 Conan Jennings (NU), 3-2 ILL 18, NU 17

Illinois beat NW by 1. So we have NO chance to beat them? Not saying we will win all these duals or even be favored but to say we have NO chance shows your wrestling knowledge. You can be negative or you can be realistic.

Dude you are so funny with your rational! Some teams match up better against others and could be a lesser team! I like how your blow out prediction of Indiana ended! I did say that Illinois would be the best chance of winning a dual, so don't put words in my mouth. Keep cherry picking your wrong points of views! That's your right to do so!

Why because my rational actually makes sense? Funny how that works.

I am really looking forward to see how the Badgers do against these teams.
These are all teams the Badgers could beat, unlike Michigan, Iowa, Penn State and Ohio State.
Beating Indiana, who only have 3 good wrestlers, was not very satisfying.

wrastle63 · January 28, 2018, 03:32:41 PM

Mark Nebraska down as a loss. We will for sure lose to them after their dominant performance against Indiana today. They won by 5 points....sounds familiar.

And you know Donny Pritzlaff is just waiting for Barry when
Rutgers comes to town. Hopefully Alvarez shows up to watch the matches.
