# 6 Oklahoma State (11-2) vs # 14 Mizzou (9-3)
All time record vs: 43-7-1
Oklahoma State is back on track for a big conference dual against Mizzou. They looked much better against SDSU and will try to continue that here. SDSU actually beat Mizzou 21-12 just a few weeks ago. Mastrogiovanni looked like he was injured at the end of his last game, but John Smith said he “looks good” per . On paper, OSU has the ranking advantage in six games, so bonus points can come through the duo in the game. Both teams have looked flat at times this season, but have looked much better in recent duels.

It sounds like there is no long-term damage to Mastrogiovanni’s ankle, but the question of this weekend is in the air. If he does go, he will have a chance to upset a wrestler who beat him 9-6 last year. Mastrogiovanni has mostly found success on his feet this season and should have opportunities to score on Surtin. While Mastrogiovanni likes to score from space or looser hand fights, Surtin wrestles near hooks and gets heavy on the head. I think this will either give Mastrogiovanni more opportunities to score or delay him significantly. It all depends on how he reacts. The biggest question is whether he can get better at the bottom. Surtin has several innings this season against opponents who have been ranked, and if Mastrogiovanni is not careful, he could find himself in a tipping point. While I think Mastrogiovanni has improved a lot, I think Surtin could end up being a tough stylistic match for him. I will, however, make him in a close decision with an early offense.
Mastrogiovanni Des. Surtin 6-4 (OSU 3 MIZ 0)
