highlights

Eierman vs Carr was amazing. Carr was killing him (9-4) and Eierman came back to win in OT

parker was losing and came back to win 

Elam is out of redshirt

That Eierman - Carr match sounds like it was terrific. 

[KCMO2 335]

I think Eierman came out over-confident and thinking he'd role through Carr.  He does that sometimes.  But when he was forced to buckle down and score pts. he took care of business.  No offense to Carr, I thought he wrestled a great match, but I would be surprised if it were this close when/if they wrestle again.

Illinois’ 149 was dq’d for 4 “hands-to-face” calls, and I believe the 197 got a call in OT to lose as well

It will be interesting to see how this new rule will affect matches/duals this year

I think it says more about Carr than Eierman. Eierman is a bit wild and is going to have matches like that. He tends to still win those and is at his best when it matters. Carr has an insane number of incredible wins

Honestly if you keep doing it after 3 prior calls from the ref you being pretty careless.  I get it a habit, but man you gotta remember to go to something else when in that situation.  But agree it will be an interesting first half of the season as some guys have to adapt to this.

So are the rumors of Montalvo to HWT false?   Really really surprised Mizzou isn't redshirting Elam, they have a solid backup and he can definitely use a year to get bigger

[jcjcjc 81]

Any video of this dual? I’ve been looking and can’t find any, which is odd for a high level dual outside for promotion.

[Gantry 1,003]

My buddies who watched it said it was on Facebook and the quality was quite poor.

Elam is not necessarily out of his redshirt. Remember new rules let you compete in up to 4 events and still redshirt.

[Gantry 1,003]

Far as I know, that rule only applies to football and not wrestling.

This isn’t true. Elam has burned his shirt. The rule you are referencing does not apply to wrestling

Thanks - thought a redshirt rule would be applied across the board for all sports.

That would make sense...hopefully they change it

[tigerfan 12]

Many of those names were not the projected starters for Illinois.  Did they think they could beat Mizzou with their JV, or did they realize they had no chance and throw in the towel?  I know many coaches don't seem to think duals matter, and I guess getting your butts' whipped in front of the home football crowd while sitting some starters is strong evidence that Heffernan is one of those coaches.

[Gantry 1,003]

They definitely have some injuries, sounds like Pio at 125 is going to be out for awhile.

So is Austin Myers gone? Sure miss his dad coming around yelling at us from time to time.

Chris Myers’ yelling = incoherent, unintelligible babbling.  

The best part about his ramblings was he was completely oblivious to his absurd lunacy.   Steroids rot your brains, kids...

No. Elam won the wrestle off.

I miss him. He made this place a lot of fun.

I can’t even remember what he would ramble about. Sad. Obviously the 4 time undefeated state champ thing. But wouldn’t he bring up some win in highschool over the Kent state heavy

I have to agree with Housebuye here. I'm a big Mizzou and Eierman fan, but I think Carr is the real deal. I'd still take Eierman in a rematch, but man, if I were an Illinois fan, I'd be pretty pumped about Carr.
