Wrestling in 1st heading into Big Ten Finals

Didn't see this anywhere. M wrestling has 5 finalists (out of 10 weight classes), tied with NCAA #1 Penn State, and has qualified 9 wrestlers for the NCAAs. They currently hold a slim margin over Penn St for the team Big Ten Championship. Penn State is the only squad to have beaten Michigan this year. Iowa is also in the hunt for their 3rd straight Big Ten 'ship, with 4 finalists.

I am not a wrestler and am too old to start, but i got more into watching it during the pandemic. The matches are short and easy enough to understand. The Big Ten Finals are tomorrow on BTN, starting at 1630 ET. 

The last time we won the Big Ten in wrestling was 1973.

My son wrestled High School JV in between Fall and Spring Football seasons. His head wrestling coach grew up in Ohio and is an OSU fan. Also follows Big Ten wrestling like crazy. It would be great to see a Michigan win. Just for trolling :)

My god Gable Steveson is SO good! 

I've seen him at least three times this year and every time he looks like he's in a different league from his opponent. He doesn't bother defending the escape because he knows he'll take the guy down in a minute & get the point back plus one
