Bartlett over Woods in a tight one. Possibly ride outs. Don’t think there’s more than 1 takedown scored.

Bartlett isn't much of a rider

Sounds like we are using a very loose definition of an upset… but then again I don’t think there’s much of a chance of a major upset taking place in this dual

For me upsets could only be:

Steen over Lee

Teske over Bravo Young

Brands over Starocci

Assad over Brooks

 

All other matches are within reasonable level of competition that even if it's not a tossup it's expected to be close.

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

This is an extremely reasonable viewpoint, and it highlights the value of this dual meet. This value is the fact that the tight matchups and tossups in the PSU/Iowa lineups make this a dual meet that could really go anywhere. It's really good for NCAA wrestling. Homers of both stripes are excited and worried, excited that their squad could pull it off, but worried that they may lose as well, for the opposing team is formidable and capable of bringing top game. It will be decided by individual performances, especially in the weights 141-167, but also of course in the two final weight classes, 197 and HWT. To my fellow wrestling fans from both camps I say "Enjoy! This is what it's all about!". And I remind you to stay respectful on the comment boards. After all, even a loss can be revenged in B10s and the NCAA Championship Tournaments. Imagine that some of these swing matches may be taking place three times over the next two months!
