de4856 Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Well I am looking forward to watching this dual, I think that it’s going to be an uphill climb for most of the Hawkeyes. I am hoping that Big Cass can come away with a win however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinnacle Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Maybe this will be proven wrong (Won't be the first time) but not seeing why some people believe Seibrecht over Haines. Freshman sometimes play it safe and try to lock in the win without taking chances, so maybe the match is close. I think Haines wins no matter what. Better in neutral. Good on top while Seibrecht isn't stellar from the two matches I saw from bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrestleknownothing Posted January 25, 2023 Author Share Posted January 25, 2023 BTW, I am going to throw a tsk, tsk and a finger wag at Iowa fans, too, as more of The Intermat Insiders believe in Cassioppi than they do.

Below are their predictions Expand Askren once called me a wimp on FRL, so his picks do not count. Christian Pyles was very friendly when I spoke to him at last year's Iowa/PSU dual, so he is in. But I am going to call him Pyle because I love it when Chael Sonnen is on FRL. JD Rader has grown on me, so he is in. On second thought, he has never used any of my voicemail questions, so his picks are off the board, too.
