Nebraska Wrestling

In 2 years I think incoming frosh Alan Koehler might be a one to watch at 125 lbs.  I expect Lauridsen to redshirt and battle for the 133 lb. weight the following year. 

Ethan Stiles is a two-time Illinois state champion and is currently ranked No. 6 at 160 pounds by Flowrestling.   He was first at Ironman this season.  Of all the incoming frosh I think he might have the best chance to skip a redshirt year.
Appreciate the info!  Here's hoping Nebraska is finally able to get some breakthroughs in terms of AAs in the lower weights.  

 
On paper, some potentially awesome matchups.  Unfortunately, I think we're going to see some guys held out robbing us of some great matches.  I don't think Labs is going to go for NU at 174 as he looked pretty gimpy against Ruth and there is really no incentive to roll him out there against a dangerous guy in Smith.  On the flip side, Romero and Hoffman for tOSU are both knicked up and I think they will send out backups although with it being Senior Night, perhaps that adjusts the calculus as both guys are Seniors IIRC.

 
But Robb was not very aggressive.  More like he was trying not to lose instead of just win.  Labs had a tough draw & looked good!
Lol first time watching Robb?  His MO has always been trying to get the first TD and then hanging on.  He's essentially Lewan from UM with a mustache.

 
Nice work by the boys last night.  One dual left against ASU who has really fallen apart this year.  I was excited for that dual prior to the season started but they seem to be on the struggle bus harddddddddddddd.

Was bummed to not see Pinto/Saldano at 184.  There's a reason they were going to end with that match.
