ILLINI versus Ohio State dual

You're going to bump Rocco Welsh up to 184 to even his record with Ruth, then it will come down to Feldman versus Luffman.

Correcting my earlier post. 

I wrote the post based on an article by the NCAA that seemed to outright state that any redshirt athlete could use those 5 free dates:

For older athletes, competing for a few matches during a redshirt season can also allow them to gauge an injury, assess their health or just wear off some rust.

But I looked up the actual rule (12.8.3.1.7 Exception), and it still only applies to Freshman. Still, I think the NCAA would grant Rocco Welsh and Ohio State a hardship waiver to wrestle against the ILLINI because otherwise it'll be a slaughter.
