Sports dynasties come and
go College heros excel and
graduate. And even the UCLA
basketball team loses
occasionally. But few athletic
events have been so completely
dominated as college wrestling
has been by the schools of the
Big Eight.
With Oklahoma State
winning 26 times, Oklahoma
five times, and Iowa State four
times, Big-Eight teams have
won the NCAA wrestling
championship 35 times in its
39 year history.
And it is Iowa State and
Oklahoma State, ranked 1-2 in
the nation, that are the
favorites in the 40th Annual
Big- Eight Wrestling
Tournament that gets under

way this evening at the
Nebraska Coliseum.
Since University students
can get into the matches with
their all-sports tickets, capacity
crowds are expected to see
defending national champion
Iowa State do something it has
never done in 18 years under
their head coach Harold
Nichols win two straight
conference titles.
The Cyciones come into the
meet with 16 straight dual
meet wins and ranked first in
the nation. But just how much
does being No. 1 mean when
the battle starts?
"Not a thing, except for the
pride it builds," said Nichols.
"When the contest is as close as
this meet figures to be, then
pride can be a factor. We are

going to be as ready as a team
can be, but the same will be
true of both Oklahoma State
and Oklahoma. This ought to
be one of the finest meets the
Big-Eight has ever had."
And it is Oklahoma State
and Oklahoma who should give
the Cyclones the most trouble.
Oklahoma State returns two
defending Big-Eight champions
and three NCAA titlists in their
lineup.
The Cowboys' Dwayne
Keller is both a two-time
Big-Eight champ and two-time
NCAA champion, who has.
incidentally, a 55-0 collegiate
record.
Keller is joined by his twin
brother Darrell (142), Ray
Strapp (118) and Geoff Baum
(190) as NCAA champions.

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
"Big Three," Oklahoma,
appears along with Nebraska as
headed for the spoiler's role.
The Sooners have lost twice to
Oklahoma State and once to
Iowa State this year in duals,
but they return three men who
placed in the NCAA last year.
Nebraska goes into the meet
with what coach Orval Borgialli
calls "the best balanced team
I've ever had.
"I've got to be realistic,
though, because everybody else
is strong this year," Borgialli
said. "If we get third, itH be a
feather in our hat. We really
performed well last week, and
if we do it again this week,
we'll be okay. The draw of the
brackets could have a lot to do
with where we finish."
Borgialli 's hopes rest mainly
on Joe George (167) and Jim
Haug (177) who finished third
and fourth respectivelyin the
Big-Eight last year. Bobby Orta
(118), who also finished fourth
last year, and Tom Meier are
