His post-meet presser Sunday will be must see TV
Missouri Dual (2/25)
- Thread starter iastatefan1
- Start date
Is anyone else concerned that the Tigers may not be healthy enough to participate in the Big 12 championship?
Yeah, didn’t think so.
We just don't know on the illness question but Surtin, Mauller, OToole, and Mocco could all reasonably lose to lower ranked Iowa State wrestlers and damage their seeding positions at Big 12s or NCAA. 141 and hwt(s) all ranked lower than us and, well, they showed up. 149, 197 doesn't fix that picture, however. Also, their coach said something to the effect that they're looking ahead to Big 12s.

Are any of the backups sick? Wonder why’s it only the starters?
The logical next step is that the backups are sick and then putting UNI and ISU at risk of illness in the team just before conference tournament. Why doesn't Missouri have to answer to that!?
Not from what I can find. Columbia is just over 4 hours away, though. I think it would make more sense for Mo. to not have their starters have 2 weigh ins, be fresh, and drive up Sunday. Would explain Elam. The real question is whether the team came to Ames right after the UNI dual.
Maybe they are playing a mental game with us. Everyone is let down, some of the crowd decides not to show up because a bunch of backups are wrestling. The team is not motivated because they aren't getting the guy they wanted. Then boom, the Mizz starters walk in at noon tomorrow for weigh in!!!
My son was there and he didn't see them , Schwab pretty much said in his interview that they weren't there. Don't expect them tomorrow.
Regardless of the letdown, I still hope everyone that bought tickets shows up to cheer on David Carr one last time in Hilton. He deserves the support for what he has done for this program. One of the all time greats
Possibly check at the mall at the strawberry patch. That's where I got my old school grappling cy hoodie a few season ago.
And it magically only impacted their starters?
I’m almost 100% positive Carr will get #1 seed at Big 12s so KOT is not ducking as there is no benefit. Big 12 seeds are base of off Big 12 matches and last year Big 12 tournament more than anything else (unless they have recently changed).
At the end, this will not benefit MO as I’m a big believer that you will not perform well with to long of break. This is one reason I hope Feldkamp wrestles tomorrow.
I hate what is happening in duals as much as anyone but unfortunately wrestling has created a “NCAA is the only thing that matters” mentality for wrestlers, coaches and fans.

Just get a plain white tee. Take a marker and right the word “oranges” on it with a line through it.
Even though missouri is ducking I’m still going and supporting David Carr and this team! Last dual meet in Hilton and they deserve it
Missouri is staying at courtyard Marriott in Ames. Asked one of the backups why aren’t any of the starters wrestling tomorrow. Didn’t say much. They know they are ducking to keep seeds
