Now that Iowa landed DeSanto, how does everyone have this dual shaking out?
Here is my, wayyyy too early, take:
125: Lee by Fall Iowa 6-0. Lee punishes his old best friend for flip flopping. If Teske, ouch.
133: DeSanto by Dec, Iowa 9-0. I will give RBY the benefit of the doubt for now that he can keep it close.
141: Lee by decision. Iowa 9-3. Do not be surprised if Murin is right there with him. This kid will be an AA contender.
149: Lugo by decision. Iowa 12-3. I am not quite sold that either Verkleeren or Berge are AA level, yet.
157:Nolf by decision. Iowa 12-6. Sucks for Iowa that their best wrestler hits quite possibly PSU's best of all time.
165:Joseph by decision. Iowa 12-9. I got strung up by the Iowa faithful for saying it, but Joseph is a step ahead as long as he minimizes risks.
174: Hall by TF. PSU 14-12. Unless Young surprises and fills into the weight, this weight hurts Iowa.
184: Nickal by decision. PSU 17-12. Wilcke will not sniff a win, but he is positionally smart and strong enough to stall to a decision.
197:Warner by decision. PSU 17-15. Kid is a goer with a massive heart.
285:Nevills by decision. PSU 20-15. however , I think Stoll gets him again when it counts in March.
This is shaping up to be one hell of a dual!
