No sir, I don't like this rule. Imagine this situation near the edge of the mat...when hypothetical wrestler A is on the verge of escaping and wrestler B is hanging on A's ankle to keep him from escaping. Wrestler A kicks out of the grip, but as a result lands out of bounds (out of the...

The escape rule will significantly alter David Taylor's strategy. I don't understand this one: A participant will be called for stalling if he kicks out from a lower leg hold and as a result of this action the defending wrestler goes out of the wrestling area.

Forgive the sappiness here, folks, but I can't help feel a bit happy for Tim Johnson and the apparent success he's having as a broadcaster. I can remember (as I'm sure you all do) when he was only doing PBS broadcasts of the meets, and now he is doing the Big Ten Network and tonight he is on...

IMO Montell is better off individually at 141, but for duals the team is better if he is at 149. As we all know it's an individual sport, so if he is the best wrestler at 141 and wants to be at that weight, it should be Ballweg to move up. Plus, in March he will likely score more points for...

I hate to be a wet blanket here, because I consider myself a glass half-full kind of guy, but the last several weeks have been absolutely sickening. The way I see it, here's what's going to happen. 1) No way we win the bowl game. Too much non-football stuff that the players and coaches are...

Let me be clearer and then I'll let it go....mental mistakes happen, and bad decisions made, but missing an open receiver in the end zone or a FG are not mental mistakes...it is lack of execution, whether people like that terminology or not. People can hate the play calls but it is up to the...

In each of the losses we have been in the game with chances to win. Bottom line is that we missed the one chance late in the game to score and go ahead, or to stop the opponent's drive. Take today for example, when Stanzi missed McNutt and we settled for a FG. I believe that was in the 4th...

Have I missed something or is the Worldwide Leader in Sports smoking something? Take a look at the Roady's Humanitarian, which they claim is WAC vs. Mountain West. One guy has Iowa St. playing in that bowl and the other has Northwestern. I guess we can ignore their anti-Iowa stuff, as their...

I find it funny while perusing other message boards that every team we play claims that "The better team didn't win today" or that the "refs cost us the game." Let's spot the Hoosiers two touchdowns, two extra points, and a field goal, and we still win the game. Doesn't bother me, though. How...

Seems like we waste opportunities throwing the ball deep, when the 5-6 yard, well executed pass allows the receiver/back to run up field a pick up big yardage. Obviously McNutt scored on that type of play and even the DJK TD was mostly yards after catch. I don't like the deep ball...it's...
