A stud like Jacques?  He's started the season strong, but I'd hardly call him a stud.

Gelding? 

I call him a good, solid wrestler.  Lost 7 OT matches last year.  Weird.

I would too, just not a stud.  Last year he was hesitant to show his offense, but he has good defense.  So he ended up in a lot of close matches, but couldn't finish in OT.  He looks more aggressive so far this season, but he hasn't wrestled any of the top guys yet.  He did decision North from Maryland who was unranked at the time, but has since moved up to 17th, but that's his best win so far this season.

Interesting that looking at the individual rankings, there wasn’t a single upset in the individual matches, but the dual overall was a big upset

[Jason Bryant]

9 over 7 (Coaches Poll - dual meet ranking) isn’t a huge upset. Not sure what rankings are being cited in the OP.

Flo had Mizzou at #4 in their dual ranking. WS also had them at #1 for a while, now at #3.

But, I must say, I am just utterly shocked at Mizzou being overrated. Scandalized, even. /s

7 losses in OT? That’s gotta be a record, right?

IDK, it stood out to me!  He also won one. 

Maybe a Hwt or two has wrestled a bunch of OT matches?
