Stanford @ Oklahoma State this Friday

[Thumper]

I fully expect OSU to win this dual but there could be some interesting individual matches such as # 2 ranked Spratley and # 14 ranked Provo at 125 lbs (seeing as Provo missed all of last season due to injury).  WS has Spratley winning 6-5 (for what that's worth).

# 6 ranked Richard Figueroa (moved up to 133) vs. # 7 ranked Tyler Knox at 133 lbs

# 4 ranked Daniel Cardenas vs. # 18 ranked Teague Travis.   If you look at their common opponents it sure looks to me like Teague wins this match despite being ranked well below Cardenas at 157 lbs

# 16 ranked Lorenzo Norman vs. # 19 ranked Alex Facundo (formerly of Penn State) at 174 lbs.

This dual will be televised (or webcasted?) on ESPN+ so I just this afternoon signed up for the ESPN Ultimate plus Fox One bundle for $39.95 per month since the ESPN Ultimate has all of the ESPN+ events as well as all other ESPN events and the Fox One portion was only $10 above the $29.95 cost for ESPN Ultimate.

Robideau won the wrestle off, so I think if nothing else we see him use one of his dates here against Cardenas.

I fully expect to see MP at the dual, he is often confused about the OSU thing.  I'll be the guy in the brightest orange hat.  Bit concerned about Stanford mascot, Oklahoma wind has been known to fell a tree or two, I'm sure we've all seen the Twister movies.

P.S. I meant to mention that the ESPN Ultimate/FOX NOW bundle also includes the Big Ten Network channels (on FOX NOW) so that means Penn State wrestling and the rest of the BIG wrestling matches as well.

Not to be confused with B1G+

This sounds like it would be great for watching wrestling....

Well at $40 / month it makes a lot more sense to me than the money I've spent on YouTubeTV to watch three or four football games (at best) per week - especially since now YouTubeTV no longer has any ESPN or ABC (or anything else connected to Disney).

With this bundle of ESPN Ultimate and FOX NOW I get ALL ESPN (ESPN, ESPN 2, ESPNU, ESPN NEWS, ESPN+ , etc., etc., etc., plus FOX SPORTS 1 and 2 on FOX NOW and the BIG TEN NETWORK.   And maybe others I'm just not aware of yet.    Plus there are a LOT of NCAA wrestling matches that are on ESPN+ so that is a major plus IMO.

If you look diligently, you can almost always find bootlegs of live college football on youtube.

Never heard the score I believe it was reported on FRL as well as Basch and the brain. Same with Vega over young although I heard young beat him the week prior in a simulation match so I would not be shocked if they feel its close that young gets the spot.

I know what you are referring to but I'll pass on those.   And - not trying to offend - but it doesn't take a lot of diligence to find them.

The first Big Ten television date on their schedule for 2025-2026 is Nov. 14th (9 days from today) with Oklahoma @ Penn State.

Well, it's tough finding a good feed, probably 90% of the title cards saying "OU TEXAS GAME" have no live video at all.

Wow, I had no idea OU was wrestling PSU!! That's gonna be BAD!! The only match I have OU winning is Braun over Davis. Davis is a better wrestler, for sure, but he got muscled around a bit at 133 last year, and I think moving up to 141 might be a bad idea. Braun wrestles aggressively and I think Braun bullies Davis and steals an early season win.  

125 Lilledahl TF Jordan                          PSU 5 OU 0

133 Blaze MD Charmoli                         PSU 9 OU 0

141 Braun dec Davis                              PSU 9 OU 3

149 Van Ness MD Gioffre                     PSU 13 OU 3

157 Duke dec Hippolito                         PSU 16 OU 3

165 MM TF Kellar                                  PSU 21 OU 3

174 Haines MD Schubert                      PSU 25 OU 3

184 Welsh dec Soldano                        PSU 28 OU 3

197 Barr dec Parker                              PSU 31 OU 3

HWT Mirasola dec Mora                      PSU 34 OU 3

Do you think this is what the primary Okie St lineup will look like this season?
