IF we don’t see our full lineup of the normal guys this could be a 6-4/5-5 type deal.
125: 0-3 with no Spencer
133: 5-3
141: 9-3
149: 9-7 with no Murin
157: 9-10
165: 15-10
174: 19-10 with Nelson if it’s Kem probably a tech
184: 22-10 with Wilson
197: 22-13 with Glazier
Hwt: 28-13
Could lose 184 with Wilson as well.
 
How does everyone see this meet playing out?

ISU favored at 57. 84 should be a good match. Coleman has looked pretty good so far this year(beat Venz).

Don't know what to expect at 49. Neither Murin nor Parker have wrestled this year. Degan dropped a match to Army's Ogunsayna.

The rest should be all Iowa if we get the starters. If not, 25 and 97 could be interesting as well.
 
Parker going to have a tough time making 141 given how big he looks now. I can't see him even trying it unless he gets beat out by Degen and I don't see that happening.

ISU favored at:

125 without Lee.

149 no matter what if Parker but I believe Turk has a couple wins there. Turk gives best opportunity to win besides Murin and a much less chance of giving up bonus than Siebrecht.

Young will be doing well to keep it to a decision based on this year so far

Coleman has to be favored over both Wilson and Abe based on better recent results.

Bastida is favored if no Warner and not a push over if Warner goes.
 
If the Hawks sit 2 or 3 starters and the Clones win 3 or 4 matches, ISU will tout how Dresser has brought the program to the cusp of threatening for a trophy.

Still mystified how 141/149 shakes out for them? Dresser scheduled a dual in Montana as a tribute to Degen and there's a chance he loses his spot to Parker? WTF.

Goofball shit…. About as cringe as his promo in the robe. Ironic AF how he calls us “robots”. Not a single member of their staff or team can come off genuine. The phrase “shit show” comes to mind.
 
With the same lineup as the first two duals, ISU could win as many as 5 matches but even if they do, bonus points will rule the day for the Hawks.

Iowa will be underdogs at 125, 149, 157, and 197 without starters at all but 157. 184 could go either way. We get bonus at every other weight. We win 8 or 9 if healthy, still get 6 I think at far from healthy. Every dual that goes by I can't help but be bummed that we are going to have less and less opportunities to watch Lee and Kem wrestle.

Great opportunity for Wilson to Go out a take the spot. GO WILSON!
 
If he wrestles like he did against Princeton's Monday I see it being at least that bad. Never know what he's going to bring, both good and bad. He needs to bring some offense...
We’re pretty sure by now of what he’s going to bring.
I'd prefer to see Turk get a start at 49--oh, but I forgot, Siebrecht is the "best at the weight."
Are there really reasons to fill a weight with a guy who has probably peaked when there are kids on the team who would benefit, in the long run from mat time?

Turk had five years to figure things out. Maybe give the new kid at least five matches? Lol

If he looks anything like the last match then then we have seen all we need to in a starting roll for this year. He wasn't competitive vs a guy barely inside the top 20.
 
I was a big fan of Dragon Ball Z in my adolescence, and I watched all of Dragon Ball Super with my kids, so what stands out to me the most in this dual is that the ISU 125 pounder went to a school called Kamehameha.

I don't think anybody was planning on seeing Cobe Siebrecht wrestling in Carver this year, or maybe ever and he's gotten 2 opportunities, which is great for him. He's apparently coming in and busting his ass and the Coaches like him so he got rewarded. The only comparison we have is at Luther where Siebrecht beat Rumph 6-4 and Turk majored him 12-1. That's a big difference in a small sample size.

The "long run" likely includes Reyna or possibly Rathjen at 149, both of whom are higher level recruits coming into the program by a wide margin. So unless Siebrecht improves by leaps and bounds he's the future backup and he very likely knew that coming in, and Turk is a pretty proven commodity. This is a no-brainer if your plan is to win as many DI matches in duals as you can, IMO.

We need to win duals and prep for next year. If our real goal was to win every match of every dual, we would have replaced a long time starter or two years back.

Cobe has a high ceiling if he gets some man strength, IMO. I wouldn't write him off yet. Why not keep sending him out for these duals that don't mean squat?

Wrestling Turk does nothing for our team's future development, and we've seen plenty of Turk's blast doubles from ten feet away to know what he's bringing to the table. (no offense to Turk, he's a great kid and has been a warrior for our team).

The good thing is the Hawks can still experiment with guys and clobber the Clones. How many teams in the nation can sit 4-5 starters, for whatever reason, and still blow most teams out?

That said, all this "injuries" are a bit concerning.

Right on…. But are we talking about the guy with anger and alcohol issues who shot a teammate?
