Purdue Matchup: On paper I can't realistically see any way we take more than 5 matches here, so for us to have any chance we will need to limit bonus points as much as possible and have some guys over-perform in either getting bonus points or keeping slanted match-ups to decisions. Even then it will be very tough without a pin or 2 going in our favor.
1) Limit bonus points against their elite wrestlers. These seniors/upperclassmen need to stay off their backs, absolutely can't get pinned or give up multiple TFs. Need to escape these weights with only 11/12 points max.
157: MVB vs. #8 Coleman
174: Scott vs. #4 Lydy
197: Pagano vs. #5 Brunner
2) Absolutely need to win 133, 165, and 184. These are the only matches where we will be favorites so we will need bonus points from here to offset what was given up above.
133: #10 Alvarez vs. Ford-Melton
165: Donner vs. Webster
184: #23 Janzer vs. Lyon
3) Need to go 2/2 in the swing matchups. Schroder lost last week to an unranked opponent and we'll need to Aragona to step up to have any shot.
125: #14 Aguilar vs. #6 Schroder
141: Aragona vs. Filius
4) Absolutely need to keep these match-ups to a (loss) decision at worst. Any bonus points here would be impossible to overcome
149: Angelo/Santos vs. #18 Parrot
285: Esposito vs. #25 Penola
