What is that, 2 second seeds, two fourths, a sixth and some others?

That's some good tourney points if it falls like that.

I think we're still sitting as the #2 team if every thing falls as the rankings go.

[GDC]

Damn, Ware and Hager are both seniors.

It's those weights where there's no Sooner even in the top 20 that kill us.

It's those weights where there's no Sooner even in the top 20 that kill us.

To me, at a program that is one of the most tradition rich in all of college wrestling, this is inexcusable.

I'm glad Spates has led us to top five finishes as often as he has, but it is full of one or two possible champions, sprinkled in with an All-American or two. The rest are really not even close to being AA status.

There is no reason we can't have more people ranked in the top eight, at least eight team members. I don't think this is being greedy.

I know this will sound like an OU football fan, but I should fully expect to be able to compete for a national championship year in and year out. Anything else is selling OU short.

OSU wins followed by
Minnesota

Just wanted to point out that Jerrod King was with OU at first, then transferred to Edinboro and became an NCAA champion and I believe a 3x All-American.

What could have been.
