The final score may not be pretty, it was never going to be heading into one of the toughest places to wrestle in the country against one of the best teams. I'm not big on moral victories, but after watching last season's match against Missouri and now this season's, there's a stark difference and that's even with 7 underclassmen in the lineup.
Kyle Akins wrestled tough against #8 Barlow McGhee; McGhee was better in the neutral position and was able to counter any shot attempt that Akins made, not giving him even a whiff of a takedown opportunity.
