I've always followed Iowa, PSU, and Cornell because they always seem to produce monster 125s and I love the little guys (no homo) because there's a lot more technique involved, unless you're the asshole with one leg. Derek St. John at Iowa is a freak at 157.

 

Nice. I've always followed the Big 10 mostly for geographic reasons and because I grew up watching and wrestling against guys that ended up wrestling in the conference.

I actually grew up wrestling against Angel Escobedo the 125 champ out of IU from a few years ago (I never won haha). The best pound for pound wrestlers are almost always between 125-157 (excluding the Cael Sanderson freaks, etc).

Re the ASU kid -- It was a cool story for everyone that doesn't understand the sport... He not only effectively had a huge weight advantage, but positioning wise there were only one or two ways to score one him.

Agreed on St. John

Way too many single-leg jokes to be made here. But yeah, I hated how inspiring it was for everyone who didn't get how wrestling works, but when you looked at who that dude was wrestling against... his body is more like a heavyweight and he was just tossing kids around out there.

 

I follow jello wrestling. Religiously.

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
