The topsy-turviness of 2007-2008:

Go figure, and this is all in dual meet competition (not in chronological order):

Penn State beats Oklahoma State, in Stillwater
Oklahoma State beats Iowa, in Iowa City
Iowa beats Iowa State, in Ames
Iowa State beats Minnesota, in Minneapolis

Three of those four losers were #1 in the Coaches' Poll at the time of their losses...has this season been crazy or what?

And oh, yeah, I haven't even mentioned a single individual match yet!

Ha, just a continuation of the football season.

As I said before: No team will go undefeated this year.

I remember when you said that! Good job out of you!

This is a good opportunity for Brands to keep the boys down to earth. Would have liked to seen Perry beat OSU before he graduated. Of course there is still a chance next week at the duals.

Not really, drstiles, considering that Oklahoma State is going to Hampton, VA for the Virginia Duals next weekend, and not Cedar Falls...

Kind of reminds me of NCAA football this year. Only difference is polls wont decide who gets the chance for redemption in march.

Oh, I forgot that they weren't going to National Duals, too. Oh well. By the way, Missouri IS still undefeated.

This topsy-turviness mirrors the college football season. Maybe kids who are in college right now were all just born under a bad sign!

Didn't Iowa just compete at Midlands while Oklahoma State sat out? Might be just a case of Oklahoma State being fresher and healthier at this point. I mean its tough to get ready for a dual meet like this after being just a week away from such a tough tourney as Midlands.
