The program is solid. We need those boys to go visit the basketball program.

Congrats to them!

Too bad SEC schools are too poor to fund a wrestling team.

The SEC should wrestle.


I am on board with this only if it is run as a rasslin' promotion, befitting our Southern heritage. Can you imagine the potential awesomeness that would ensue?

And just to add on, with OU second, two SEC schools finish 1-2 in the Big 12 wrestling tournament, which is kinda funny

Mizzou stakes claim to the Big XII title with 131.5 points. Oklahoma finished second and Iowa State third. The Tigers had just one individual champion, Keegan O'Toole at 165 pounds, but had a wrestler in the top seven in every weight class and every individual that competed won at least as many matches as he lost. Brian Smith was named the Big XII coach of the year.

It is the Tigers' 11th straight conference championship, but the last nine had come in the MAC. Mizzou won the Big XII title in 2012, then was exiled for nine years, and returned this season. There's no question which program has been Missouri's most successful in the last couple of decades.

It's the reason why wrestling is the basic foundation for all MMA righting.

When i played football the non wrestlers seemed like pussies to us wrestlers. They still could hit hard ofcourse or play well but they all got tired more easily and tended to give up mentally under duress much easier and complained much more about little stuff or conditioning.
