boconnell Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I wonder if Mizzou knew the same. If you know Fix has to win by 10, how do you get put to your back (was it an inside trip?). Just wrestle TDs and bail early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pretty good guy he was up against. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offthemat Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 How bout Konner Doucet? He didn’t win this weekend but kept it close with two big guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also think Witcraft knew what was required to win the dual with Fix up last. He was very careful took a 2-1 loss (minimum point differential) thus making it easy for Fix and didn't try any crazy throws in the middle.

MidwestMan Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Mizzou: "woulda, coulda, shoulda, didn't!" Don't lose the lesson and move on! Sounds like the folks in attendance got their money's worth and this dual will continue to be a barn burner. Iowa state in CoMo next week so gotta get back to work.

He can't turn guys from top, so if you don't get taken down to your back, he has a hard time racking up points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think that the fact that he usually wrestles that way doesn't mean he can't, if needed, rack up a big score on an opponent not in his class. If I was in the situation OSU was in I'd feel good about him being able to win by double digits. World silver medalist vs 26th ranked college guy, lower weights, I think the outcome of that match was the likely one. It was just a 2 point near fall (actually I thought it probably wasn't two seconds past 45 degrees). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming into that match he had 2 MD, 1 Fall, and 9 DEC wins against wrestlestat top 50 opponents. So you are absolutely right and I am absolutely wrong. He did turn the michigan kid.
