I've got a lot of problems with you people, and now, you're going to hear about it! Final episode of 2021. Recapping the big mountain road trip for the Pokes, who probably expected the Rockies to be a bit rockier. John Denver is full of it! Also national title convos, recruiting convos, and more!
Dec 16, 2021
Pokes are wrestling at Air Force and at Wyoming on the same day... and driving the nearly 200 miles between the two schools to achieve this... and then heading over to the other side of the Rockies to take on the Utah Valley Wolverines. Should be a great weekend of OSU wrestling!
Dec 15, 2021
An eventful Bedlam dual took place on Sunday! Including some extracurriculars from a couple of the athletes. Pokes extend their dominance in the rivalry.
Dec 9, 2021
What does Bedlam mean to you? To Oklahoma? To wrestling in general? A rivalry matchup between two of the 5 greatest programs in the sport... very lopsided, but tons of fun. Does it matter? What does the future hold for the rivalry? Let's talk about it. Let's also talk about how much the Pokes are going to beat the sooners by on Sunday. Dual is at 5pm CST. Tickets are $15 at the Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, OK. National broadcast will be on ESPNU.
Dec 7, 2021
It's Bedlam week! And that is all that is going on. Discussing the current state of the rivalry, where it should be, where it could be, and what might need to happen to reignite some passion in this thing. Also results from the Jet Open for some backups and redshirts.

West Philadelphia, born and raised, and then sent to Stillwater, Oklahoma to get taught a lesson in fighting on basketball courts. Previewing the Drexel dual. Also, is Jordan Burroughs the new GOAT of American freestyle wrestling? Or is it still John W. Smith? Also also, Yojiro Uetake is hands down one of the two greatest NCAA wrestlers of all time. Why do people think that Dan Gable was better? Because Iowa creates their own history narratives. Disproving that notion in this episode. Ask questions via Anchor, or via Twitter. Let me know how I'm doing! @leecothran
