There are less than 2 weeks left until the Cyclones tip off the season vs IUPUI. I expect this team to have solid defense like last year, but who do you see emerging as our leading scorer this season?

Tough choice, good problem to have.

STANZ: Holmes' second-half brilliance leads Iowa State past Kansas in Ames

Enjoy.

RIP Melinda Dillon

Most famous for playing the mom in A Christmas Story, she was 83.

Many probably didn’t know she was a two time Oscar nominee as well.

She’s also in one of my favorite movies of all time, Magnolia.

Iowa Dual Discussion

Rather than overtaking every other thread to talk about this match let’s get it started. This is the week! It’s going to be fun and a great test for the young guys.

125 - Lee fall Terukina. I have no inside knowledge, but reading the tea leaves that Lee will go for this dual. 6-0 Iowa

133 - Teske dec Attasauov. I didn’t think Attasauov looked great in Humboldt and Redding obviously was terrible against Cal Baptist. If we can get the Redding that showed up in Florida, this is a winnable match, but I need to see it again. Definitely could go either way. 9-0 Iowa

141 - Swiderski maj Bennet. While I think Lee goes, I have no idea about Woods. I don’t think it would be smart for Woods to wrestle his first match of the year against Swiderski. Swiderski is getting better and better adjusted to the weight and his pressure is going to be high. I’d like to see Swiderski develop a consistent turn and maybe this could end up in a pin, but that will come. Even if Woods goes I’m taking Swiderski, why not. 9-4 Iowa

149 - Murin dec Johnson. This is going to be close. I think it’s a 1 td match and RT and gas tank will be the deciding factor. 12-4 Iowa

157 - Siebrecht dec Kraisser. Siebrecht is no world beater, but I’ve been impressed so far this year. I think there could be some wild exchanges in this one. I think the range of outcomes spans the whole spectrum here but Iowa is the favorite. 15-4 Iowa

165 - Carr dec Kennedy. I feel confident about this as Carr has looked great and is tested this year. Kennedy will bring it though. 15-7 Iowa.

174 - Broderson dec Brands. This is going to be a 1 TD battle. 3-2 type match. Brands looked like he’s not 100% in the dual against Penn. 15-10 Iowa

184 - Coleman dec Assad. I think Coleman is close to a major here, but not quite. 5-6 point win. 15-13 Iowa

197 - Bastida dec Warner. Simply better. Warner’s path to victory is to hold Bastida off and make it an escape and RT win. Think Bastida can get the 2-3 TDs he needs. 16-15 ISU.

Hvy - Cassioppi fall Schuyler. 21-16 Iowa.

This dual really comes down to who Iowa sends out at 125. If Lee goes, it will be a tough hill to climb. If not, ISU is right there..

It would be nice if ISU could steal one of 33 or 49, and the Bastida match is huge.
