Gfeller beats Lee in the final bout, but Gophers win the dual 18-12.

WOW. Does the "John Smith has to go" talk go up a level now?

This doesn't only apply to OSU and this meet, I've seen many other such examples, but if no one on the coaching staff is good at math then why not hire a 5th grader to sit on the bench and do the heavy analysis?

Let's talk about the weight shift that Minnesota did in the last two weight classes.  When is the last time in D1 wrestling when two guys shift up a weight from where they were a couple days ago and beat two higher ranked guys.  Foy, the backup at 184 moves up and beats Surber and Joles #28 at 197 beats #18 Doucet at Hwt.

Wasn’t Braydon Lee the pre-season #1 in some rankings? 
i didn’t watch the dual. Did Bergeland and Lee look gassed and injured?

Bergeland's first match and Lee's second.  They'll be fine.

Surprised this dual hasn’t gotten more media attention. Was a wild one.

Agree I think it got lost on people's schedules between CLKV, CyHawk, and Beard vs Dean revenge match.  But this was a great dual that I finally got to watch last night after my family fell asleep.  Carter Young looked pretty good.  He's great on his feet and with scrambling.

Right, all the podcasts talking about Cy/Hawk dual, which had a great crowd but not the most exciting matches.  Brayton Lee wins that match if the dual were on the line, but Blockhus already clinched it.  Brayton missed the whole week of Thanksgiving with a fever, and probably didn't get much mat time before this dual.

His total offense was Lee touching his headgear.

Hmm. I think there were 3 grabbing headgear violations against the Gophers.

I think there were 2, McKee and Lee.  O’Reilly had a hands to the face penalty.

Good for MN.   Maybe they will be able to do well this year after so many years not doing as well.   They were a premier team a few decades ago, winning the national championship a few times.
