OSU puts three in the finals.
These guys are so focused and tough. This has been a great wrestling season for us. I feel sorry for any Cowboy sports fan that isn’t a wrestling fan. Our best sport this year!

It’s been awesome so far!
Just hope we can hold off Iowa for 3rd place. Both teams have 3 in the finals.
Unfortunately I think our only real shot at an individual title is Spratley at 125.
Hamiti has a chance against O’Toole, but O’Toole looked in control against him in the conference tourney.
Hendrickson can shock the world (literally), but I don’t think you can give him a higher than 3-5% chance to upset Steveson. The guy is an Olympic gold champion.
What a great surprise getting 3 in the finals. I didn’t expect any finalists. A 4th place trophy seems likely. I’m happy for Mark Manning. He’s been at Nebraska since 2000. I remember when he had red hair. In a few years OK State should be perennial 2nd place. Anything can happen after that in terms of beating out PSU for some of the top talent. Coach of the year? Mark Manning.
How did you guys feel about seeing AJ lose? He needs to lose that mustache and get a haircut and drop the wildman look. Where will he wrestle next season?
Perennial second place finisher ? You do realize Penn St was saying they were going to up their points record from last year ? They lose guys , we are getting top recruits, top portal , great coaching. Lose the loser mentality for us is a good start Iowa isn’t catching us this year
