[Manty77]

some miscellaneous observations:
 
1) Barnett and Lamont both looked very tight and wrestled very conservatively.  It would have been nice to see them open up

2) Model looked like he was wresting a mirror image of himself.  I suspected his gas tank would be the difference, and it was.  Even the announcer commented that his opponent wasn't as zippy in the 3rd period : - )

3) Otto needs some offense.  He will win very few matches with his current approach

4) Dow needs to shoot.  That was incredibly frustrating to watch.  Nice win, though

5) Hilger looks MUCH bigger.  He was undersized last year after recovering from surgery, but he looks to be back, BABY!  He won his 100th match.  Wow.

6) I'm a huge Kyle Ruschell fan but his team didn't reflect his aggressive style.  I was surprised at the at how much they stalled

7) I was disappointed Rocky Jordan didn't transfer to WI, but he didn't show anything special against Otto. Maybe not that big of a missed opportunity
