Big Match up has just been announced. Kyle Dake vs. David Taylor in the NWCA All-Star match. Dake got him at the Trials, but does he match up in Folkstyle? Who ya got? Me...Dake.

Just found out that Dake is going 165 this year. Top three is anybody's game...Caldwell, Dake, Taylor. I am pulling for Caldwell v. Dake...Should be a great season.

I'll take Dake in the all-star matchup, probably 5-2 or so decision...

I'm pulling for Taylor! Got to meet and visit with him this past summer while at camp at Penn State!! Cant wait for the match no matter the outcome!!

At the Olympic Trials I watched both of these guys go out of their way to talk with younger kids. That says a lot abou these guys. At such a high level event they made sure to encourage those kids. They are going to be a great representation for our country.

Hope both wrestler are healthy for this barn barner! I think the difference will be on their feet. Prediction DT wins 5-3. No riding time for either.

But when Caldwell shows up against either one them I'm cheering for Tyler!

I sure hope theses two meet at the NCAA. Did you see there match at the Olympic trials? Dake dominated the 1st period. Then pinned him in the second. He looked dramatically stronger. I would not be surprised if Taylor goes up or down if possible to avoid this confrontation. Lastly I think Dake rides him like a coat of paint. Now, I am going to half to buy tickets for this one, if it even happens.

Dake has already shown he can neutralize Taylor on his feet (I know it was freestyle but a TD is a TD). I don't think Dake takes the chance of going under Taylor when he knows he's capable of beating him on his feet, and if Taylor does goes under Dake, we all know what happened when Molinaro went under Dake, I think the same type of situation could occur. So without backpoints I think it's a low scoring defensive affair unless Dake chooses to ride relentlesly like he's known to do.

Taylor will be able to use his superior scrambling skills in folkstyle. Going with the "Magic Man"!!!

Wow! This is great! So much on the line for both men. There going to have to find a bigger venue...LOL....OK Mr Taylor & Dake the table is set. We want to see the show down at the NCAA!

Think Taylor is a great kid. Think Dake is a great kid. Think they are both Monsters. I just think Dake will beat him and will never be in trouble in the match.

Im gona cheer for Caldwell no matter what, Go TYler have a good season. Give it your all.

Dake will be at 157 during the season. I am going to be pulling for my man Alex Dieringer to pull of the BIG upset and deny Kyle his fourth title.

Dake is quoted on a couple different sources as saying he is going 165 for the whole year. Bo tweeted back and forth with him and he said he was excited about the challenge. Bo's prediction is Dake by 3. I am a huge David Taylor fan, but I might have to agree with Bo. Dake is a freak!

My source, Alex D., was training with at the OTC prior to the FILA Jr. Worlds. Dake told him if he wanted to win a NCAA Title this year he better pull to 149... What about Peppleman? I would love to see him make the jump. With Howe taking a redshirt it does remove a big challenger from the picture. I think Dake is in his kitchen. Bubba already proved that DT has an achilles heel...

Looks like Kendrick Maple will be wrestling in the dual as well.

Maple is slick!! He and Caldwell have really blown up!

this saturday on Flo

I think Dake will win his 4th at either 157 or 165, If he goes 165 it will be a tougher road for him, but he is too strong, and too good on his feet for Taylor, or Caldwell. I like watching all 3 of these beast on the mat, but I think Dake is the overall toughest out of all of them. I personally would like to see Caldwell win it though.
