We get Illinois in the Quarters. They have a pretty salty team. Here are some of the likely matchups.

125: #1 Jesse Delgado (ILL) -Waters.-Delgado is defending national champ. Huge one for Waters.
133: #7 Zane Richards (ILL) -Synon-limit points
141: #13 rodrigues(ILL)- Mayes- Good opponent for mayes to test his meddle
149: Kyle Langenderfer (ILL)-Houdashelt-Bonus points time
157: #2 Isaiah Martinez (ILL) -Lavalle-limit bonus points
165: #8 Jackson Morse (ILL) -Mikey needs a few wins...tough draw
174: #7 Zac Brunson (ILL) -Eblen- This could be an AA match at the NCAA's, big match
184: #19 Nikko Reyes (ILL) - Miklus- Cmon willie.
197: Jeff Koepke (ILL) - J'Den-J'den Smash
285: Brooks Black (ILL) -Mellon should win

Tough one in the Semi's if we get Ohio State again. They will have their full line up back healthy.

That is huge for Waters but hasn't Delgado been hurt most of the year? Thought I read or heard that somewhere.

Overall, I didn't realize that Illinois matched up so favorably against Mizzou.

Yeah, Delgado was hurt for awhile...but he is back and crushing people. You don't win a national championship by being a scrub. Here is how I see it shaking down.

125-Miz Dec- 3-0
133-ILL DEC - 3-3
141-MIZ DEC- 6-3
149-MIZ MAJ - 10-3
157- ILL Maj - 10-7
165- ILL DEC - 10-10
174-MIZ - DEC- 13-10
184-MIZ- DEC- 16-10
197-MIZ- Maj- 20-10
285-MIZ- DEC- 23-10

Obviously I didn't count on any pins or tech's...which are very possible, but impossible to predict. The 3 matches I want to watch are 125, 141, and 174. Most of the others would be an upset, but they do happen. This is Waters biggest match all year. A 2X defending champ.

I'm excited.

Mizzou pretty much trounces Illinois and Lehigh, setting up a match up with Iowa, the #1 team in the country. Would be monumental to beat them but I see no way of it happening. We have too many holes with Synon, Lavalle, England and Mellon. And they're damn good wrestlers, but IMO just not at that level.

England has to avoid giving up major points.
