This is going to be a very interesting dual. On paper it looks like OSU is a better dual team. Come tournament time on paper it looks like Iowa is the second best team.

Prediction:
125- Spratley over Cruz. Cruz need to keep this to a decision and I think he does. Does this match have upset potential? Maybe.
0-3
133- Drake needs to stick to his offense and avoid the big moves. I think Drake gets the MD 4-3
141-I think Cullen can keep it to a decision and he needs to. I don’t see an upset here
4-6
149- If Parco can get a turn I think he gets the MD, but probably just a dec. 7-6
157- Teemer dec 10-6
165 Cali dec. Amine is hard to score on and will look to keep it close and steal the match. 13-6
174-I’ve seen PK vs Hamiti a few times now and I don’t think he will get over the hump. I say give Brands a chance here. Dec OSU but who knows. 13-9
184- Let Ferrari go and see if he can get the upset. Til I see if I’ll give it to OSU. 13-12
197-Surber is a good scrambler. SB will have to finish fast and clean. If so I think he gets the MD, but will go with the dec. 16-12
285- on paper is Wyatt. He is a bonus machine. I really have no clue here. I say dec OSU 16-15 final Iowa wins dual.

Not a lot of cut and dry in this dual. Cruz could get the upset or he could get majored. Drake might just get the dec. Cullen could get majored. Parco could bonus, if Temmer isn’t right Fish could steal. Cali could bonus. Ferrari could get upset, and Wyatt could bonus. Hopefully these all go in our favor and we come away with the W, but if they don’t an L is definitely in the cards.

your maths aren't adding up.

you have Iowa up 16-12 going to HWT and then losing 16-15
 
This going to be a great dual. With that being said, it is really just deciding the pecking order behind PSU as a dual team. While I absolutely want Iowa to win, more than anything I want the Hawks to stay healthy going into a two week break before B10s. That is what matters. I would prefer both, but if I had to choose one, I would rather Iowa finishes ahead of Okie St. at NCAAs than win this dual.
 
Iowa might finish second in this one, but that means OSU finishes next to last.
 
If Hawks win 184, we win 6 matches & the meet.
A loss at 184 and we likely lose on bonus points. It’ll be a great meet win or lose…I can hardly wait😊.
