Michigan at Ohio State on Jan 25th

[Buckeyebison 87]

It will be televised on BTN live at 7 pm EST. It’s going to be a huge game. They are nearly even.

 

 

My predictions-

125- Malik Hinselman by a decision 3-0 tOSU

 

133- Micic by a narrow decision 3-3 TIE I want Luke to prove me wrong!

 

141- Joey McKenna by a decision 6-3 tOSU Kanen Is dangerous but Joey is too strong for him.

 

149- Micah Jordan by a major decision. 10-3 tOSU.

 

157- it’s a tossup. Which Alec would show up?? I’m calling Ke-Shawn Hayes by a decision. 13-3 tOSU

 

165- Poor Kaleb Romero. He keeps getting the tough opponent. Logan Massa by a decision. 13-6 tOSU

 

174- there is no chance that either Te’Shan Campbell or Ethan Smith would be able to match up with strong Myles Anime. Anime by a major. 13-10 tOSU

 

184- Myles Martin continues to have bonus points streak. Myles by a tech fall. 18-10 tOSU

 

197- Kollin Moore should win by a narrow major decision. 22-10 tOSU

 

HWT- that’s the rather interesting match. Chase Singletary already has beaten Mason Parris earlier this season. Would Mason improve and surprise Chase? Ok, I’m picking Chase to repeat winning but by very narrow decision 25-10 tOSU.

 

Of course, Michigan can surprise by taking 125 and HWT which would have resulted into narrower tOSU win- 19-16.

HAHA, criticizes someone for saying “game” rather than “match” and continues to not know how to add.

 

Interesting.

Well. Ohio State vs Michigan is considered THE GAME for all of us- the fans of Ohio State and Michigan in any sport. They know what THE GAME means.

Hwt- Parris dec19-17M

Michigan must win the close ones because of OSU's bonus.  Jordan's could be worse as well as Moore's. Should be a great dual

[PSUMike 426]

I can easily see this match going 5-5 and coming down to bonus points. 

[treep2000 755]

My buckeyes will lose this dual.  Mark it.  :-(

[silvermedal 86]

I think UM will be highly motivated after dropping the last several to the Bucks.  Key bouts will be 125 and Hvy but UM is slight faves in both.  Honestly, I think Heinselman is more likely to pull the upset as Parris got caught with a four pt move in his first match up with Singletary.  Parris is bigger, stronger and not likely to get caught by a similar move again.

 

[silvermedal 86]

This is one of the top duals of the season.  I'm surprised it's not being discussed with more vigor.

On paper it's about as close as it gets... maybe it's just missing a real marquee matchup?  Also there isn't a huge U-M presence on this board.  

Pletcher / Micic and McKenna / Storr should be fun, but I see both of those going pretty comfortably to the favored guy.  

[RoosterAttack 3]

I think heavy and 157 should also be great close matches that lean in Michigan favor even thou OSu took heavy early in season. And I'm calling storr for the upset!! (prayer emoji)

Probably because it's missing a wrestler that will scream in the face of his opponent  after the match

But will this game be on btn or will they be showing a women's bb match?  :(

[silvermedal 86]

If we need a marquee matchup, have UM move up My Amine to take on Mymar

sounds like an uncomfortable medical procedure....

Is be shocked if Heinselman beat Mattin. Assad is a favorite over him too. 

Malik has a high ceiling but nothing he has done this season suggests he has a shot vs Mattin. Unless you are banking on Malik having jumped levels since his last match, picking him is pure homerism

[treep2000 755]

Elaborating more fully on my prediction:

125:  Mattin dec. Malik.  3-0 Mich.   Note.  I could see a major by Mattin in this one.  But am only giving a regular decision, due to my homerism.  

133:  Micic dec. Pletcher:  6-0 Mich.  I just don't see this going Pletch's way again.  I'm concerned that Pletch may have peaked already for his career.  

141:  McKenna dec. Storr:  6-3 Mich.  OK.  McKenna wins by decision, but it's going to feel like a tech.  McKenna is operating like a neurosurgeon on the mat, with technical precision and solidity that I haven't seen in some time.  The points aren't there, but you'll walk away feeling like he absolutely destroyed Storr.  

149:  Jordan dec. Amine:  6-6 TIE.  Jordan should major or more... but he won't... because... well... I honestly don't know why.  

157:  Pantaleo dec. Hayes:  9-6 Mich.  Hayes biggest weaknesses are a.) his strength at this weight class, and b.) his perceived lead feet.  If Hayes let's loose and actually moves a little, it could be an entertaining match, as I do believe that Hayes has the skill to keep it close, or even pull out a victory.  

165:  Massa MDec. Romero:  13-6 Mich.  I could even see a pin by Massa, especially if Romero makes some "rookie" mistakes.  Limiting to major right now.

174:  Amine dec. Campbell/Smith:  16-6 Mich.  Either way, Amine wins, but they both know how to keep it close.  

184:  MyMar WBF Correll:  16-12 Mich.  Ryan tells him to pin... he pins.

197:  Moore WBF Striggow:  18-16 tOSU.  Ryan tells him to pin... he pins.

HWT:  Parris dec. Singletary:  19-18 Michigan.  Mason gets his revenge. 

This is how the Bucks lose this dual.

Are you vying for the title of Duck Commander this week?  Nice Duck Command (prediction)... if it holds! :-)
