Disco Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I would assume that barring injuries, both of these squads will have their starting 10 wrestling in this dual. Should be another close match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaner2 Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I see it MSU wins 6-7 matches. IU wins 149, 174 and 285. Interesting to see Porter vs Foley and Gilcher vs Saldate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 So indiana ain’t going to be classified as a mid conference tier? If sparty beats us. Michigan state only won a single dual in the big this season so far. I guess back to the bottom feeder status. Unless we win this match. I say we are going to win.

Be nice if IU could keep top talent. But Angel is doing his best with what doesn't stray. I'm just being realistic, I wish I were wrong but, let's face it, outside Maryland, iU hasn't developed national caliber athletes since Mike Mena was an assistant.

Disco Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 I can agree with you on this. The Mena situation on Duane Goldmans staff sure was odd. Mena seemed to be able to reel in and develop talent, unlike anyone else in the later stages of the Goldman era. And I thought, at the time,the logical replacement for Duane going forward in the program. We all know what happened to the program. But unsure as to why Mike Mena left. I know he was training for an Olympic run, but seems he just disappeared into thin air. Similar to Soriano ,the onetime Northwestern coach. Water under the bridge. I would like to see another like Mena, on staff, to work on the recruit and develop side and generate higher talented incoming wrestlers. I think it’s starting to sink in with Angel. He’s had to train while on the job, per se.Slow process. beaner2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indianasuperfan Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Disco not sure how you can’t consider Indiana a mid tier team in this conference at this point whether they lose to MSU or not. They have 3 big ten wins and defeated Rutgers who has been considered a mid tier program. I would venture to say this is the toughest the big ten has been top to bottom in a long time if ever. The bottom teams in the Big Ten can beat 80 percent of teams in other conferences. Given where IU has been in the past decade I’m enjoying this ride and I’m hoping Purdue can turn things around! MSU is a bad match up for IU in my opinion. MUSKEEWRESTLER, beaner2 and IU89 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAJR Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 MSU has been somewhat inconsistent in duals this year. Think it will be either a blowout or very close. The homer in me has it 22-19 IU. Disco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 10, 2023 Author Share Posted February 10, 2023 I think msu is a bad matchup for Indiana also. So this is what I think separates good teams from middle pack or bottom teams. Indiana and Purdue need to start beating the so call bad matchups to be considered good teams. I may be wrong here, but when you are good you win them.

BrodyHardcastle Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 (edited) IU. MSU 125- 3 133- 3 141- 3 149- 3 157- 3 165- 4 174-3 184- 4 197- 3 285- 3 I got 17 -15 MSU. IU has to have Gilcher win against Saldate which he did last time but Saldate has been red hot. If IU can get a win from Moran or a big fall from Washington then I could see them pulling it out.

Disco Posted February 10, 2023 Author Share Posted February 10, 2023 I think Bullock has a shot at grabbing 6 points. Gilcher getting saldate again will validate the he last match they had. Saldate will be on the war path to protect seed. That’s if he even wrestles. May want to save for the conference tournament. Or if Indiana could pull the 125lb match out, I’m thinking W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaner2 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 IU was very game tonight. This was a tough duel on paper for IU. The team is making progress and that doesn't happen overnight.
