Schedule

[CyCloneRastlinG]

Does anyone know when next year's schedule comes out? Would love to see a step-up in competition in the next couple of years for dual meets. Looks like we should have both UNI and Oklahoma State in Ames next year.

Would like to see them schedule Purdue, Minnesota, Nebraska, Virginia, Virginia Tech, NC State, North Carolina, Michigan, Cornell, Wisconsin, Princeton, Rutgers, Stanford. These are great programs or up-and-coming programs to add energy to the schedule with stiff competition. I like the addition of Missouri.

I almost pulled the trigger on season tickets this year but the best competition is out of town except Missouri. I hope Dresser and Pollard look hard at beefing up the schedule in the upcoming years. This would draw more excitement and people to attend meets.

The big names bring people in to watch a dual and pack the stands. Most casual fans couldn't name a single starter for Ohio or SIU-E. I hope things change moving forward. Some programs are trying to schedule tough competition and would love to get ISU on there I'm sure.

I don’t think most casual fans could name a starter on Michigan, NC State, or Virginia Tech either.

That said, I do expect the schedule to get a little tougher. Likely just part of the process.

Conference matchups will be set by the league. So far, the Big 12's attempts at balancing schedules have led to 3 straight trips to Fargo, 2 straight to Stillwater, and 2 straight to Cedar Falls.

Figure on Iowa at home and Missouri on the road.

The question is how many other current opponents are part of a home-and-home agreement.

Wrestling schedules usually don't come out until after June.

Getting Nebraska at home would be quite tasty

Need to keep some east coast duals for recruiting

Love the appetite for stronger dual competition in coming years. Been awhile since we have seen that around here. This said, I think this year’s schedule is turning out to strike just the right competition balance.

You might be right, but getting season tickets because ISU is wrestling Michigan, NC State, and Virginia Tech might be an easier sell.

Micic vs Gomez, Storr vs Parker, Amine vs Coleman, Parris vs Gremmel.
McFadden vs Coleman, Colbray vs Bolen
Tariq Wilson vs Gomez, Hidlay vs Carr, Hidlay vs Coleman, Reenan vs Colbray

Those are some matches that would fill seats and get people excited. Not including all the other great match-ups I didn't list.

It has also included us getting Fresno State at home twice. Next year they should be @Fresno State.

I would love to get Lehigh or Princeton on the schedule for a home/home. Good east coast programs that would be a fun dual! Rutgers and Va Tech would also be on my list of schools I'd like to dual.

Michigan home/home in the next few years could also be a cherry on top for getting Facundo
