Mizzou and Vtech go head to head tomorrow in CoMo. Wonder if O’Toole takes a shot and bumps up to face Lewis. Will be a great dual regardless. Hope both have full lineups.

I’ve always used CoMo when referencing Columbia Mo. Might be a local/Missouri thing, idk.

Could be Steed? He's currently backing up Mauller at 157.

Surtin vs Flynn is very interesting. Ando vs Mauller as well. 

[Hammerlock3]

well if he bumps up and beats lewis, he's definitely got the inside track for the hodge...

Mocco should be back at 174, and he's wrestled Lewis close, losing 3-2 and in OT.  Mizzou might need O'Toole bonus pts at 165, so I don't see a bump here.  Although I'd love it if they did.

I hold out hope because I tihnk Smith really cares about the sport as a whole. Fringe benefit to the fact that dual meets don't matter.

Went through Columbia and the Mizzou campus with my family a couple years back.  Really beautiful place.

Is Steed healthy?   He was injured in a match a few weeks ago and haven't heard any updates.

Not sure. I don't follow Mizzou religiously. I was just spitballing.

As a native Columbian, I've never called it that. But, it is common parlance in the region (unlike "the Lou", which is only used as a gimmick).

As a VT fan, this is one of my favorite duals. Both programs have great coaches and it’s reflected in their rosters. It’s always a tough but respectful dual

[creek chub]

Rumor is Mocco didn’t weigh in. Sounds like the KOT vs Lewis match is likely to happen

As much as I would love to see  KOT vs Lewis, I am concerned. Maybe I am way off, but if they are talking of possible bumping, is Mocco not ready to comeback? I don’t see Smith not letting a healthy Mocco wrestler. Lewis won 3-2 in OT their last match so it’s not like Mocco wasn’t right there with him. To take a match away from Mocco when he could see Lewis down the line doesn’t make sense for the purpose of winning duals in my opinion. If Mocco isn’t back 100% I’m all for KOT/Lewis, but not at the expense of someone getting another match with a wrestler they could see later.

Hope he’s better before the season ends. Outside of Harmon who just wrestled 174 at Soldier Salute after being 184 for a couple years, I don’t know who else we have at 74.
