Sloan picking Joles apart on neutral and beating him up on top. This is a Joles who wrestled heavyweight last year and did half decent. And Sloan looks much larger than him. Major decision for Sloan who clocked about four and a half minutes of riding time. 16-13 Gophers going into heavies
Okay here are my last minute predictions
125: Terukina dec Ayala 3-0
133: Teske dec Frost 3-3
141: Woods dec Echemendia 3-6
149: Swiderski dec Voinovich 6-6
157: Franek dec Chittum 6-9
165: Carr dec Caliendo 9-9
174: Kennedy dec Gaitan 9-12
184: Feldkamp dec Arnold 12-12
197: Glazier dec Broderson 12-15
285: Bastida major Hill 16-15 Cyclones
Tanner Cook opens up a quick 6 point lead, before Blaine Brenner scores eight straight plus over two minutes riding time. 9-6 for Brenner and now 12-6 for the Gophers
Michael Blockhus with a very impressive comeback victory against Cael Swensen. Blockhus really turned it on late, and electrifies the crowd with a sudden victory takedown. 9-6 Gophers after five
Drew Roberts looks pretty tough - good defense and selective, but effective with his own offense. Martin avoids the major decision. 8-1 Roberts. Team score locked up 6-6
Jackrabbits with an unexpected 6-0 lead.
Caleb Gross fills in for Clay Carlson at 141 (not sure on the reason for Carlson's absence) against Vance Vombaur up next
133: Derrick Cardinal vs Tyler Wells. Wells won by TF two weeks ago. This time around, Derrick Cardinal with a late takedown - wins 5-3 over phenom freshman Wells
What are some of the recent changes that happened right before or after the season began:
Braxton Brown: 125 to 133
Nate Higley: 149 to 141
Gavin Hoffman: 197 to 184
Chris Foca: 174 to 184
who else?
@BigRedFan what does it mean for Loew if Foca is up at 184? Will Loew do some sort of greyshirt/redshirt thing where he unenrolls to preserve eligibility? Loew seems to have gone on injury RS last year - maybe he is still injured? Any ideas?
