Ouch. OSU wrestled really well. But, on the other hand, OSU wrestled poorly. The lineup for OSU wasn't what I expected, and on the other side of the mat, where was 197 pounder for OSU? For that matter, OSU was also missing their 197er.

OSU's Ethan Stiles is a good one. Get him back to his home state! 

I've been waiting for this OSU match before publishing my preview of the January 10 ILLINOIS versus OSU dual.

You know I have to send a bat signal to @ionel for this OSU battle, right? I'm happy that OSU won.
