Seeing  how Wrestling is one of the most popular bases in MMA, i thought that it would be goof if i started a thread that  would allow for people to understand and follow the storylines and techniques at the highest level collegiate and international level competition.  I will create a Ranking system and give scouting reports of the top 10 guys at each weight class and provide updated weekly rankings every Monday. The first event i'm covering is NWCA National dual finals between Iowa and Missouri.

Wrestling World Cup results.

Finals: Bimeh-Razi 7, Titan Mercury WC 1
57kg Vladimir Khinchigashvili (B-R) dec. Tony Ramos (TMWC), 4-1(Ramos is getting better keeping it closer with World Champs but this whole story of him being top 10 in the world is silly.)
61kg Benham Ensanpour (B-R) dec. Daniel Dennis (TMWC), 5-1(Ehsanpour is 2012 Junior world champ top 5 throughout the year beat Haji Aliyev at the world cup, but lsot to Shuptar at worlds this year and DNP'd. Daniel Dennis is most known for leading Jayson Ness in last 15 seconds of 2010 NCAA's then Ness hits him with a duck to his back to come up clutch and win his national title as a senior. 
65kg Masoud Esmailpour (B-R) dec. Morteza Ghiyasi (TMWC), 5-1(Esmailpour was the 2014 world runner-up to Haji Aliyev
70kg Magomedrasul Gazimagomedov (B-R) tf. Dustin Schlatter (TMWC), 11-0(no shame in losing to Gazimagomedov who proved he's truly on another level at worlds.
74kg Andrew Howe (TMWC) dec. Alireza Ghasemi (B-R), 7-2(Howe beat Ghasemi who placed fifth this year at worlds and who has wins over Purevjav Unurbat(world runner-up this year to Burroughs) and 2014 World runner-up Sosuke Takatani.

97kg Reza Yazdani (B-R) tf. Jake Varner (TMWC), 10-0(If Yazdani can stay healthy he is 100% a threat to win a world title. 2011 and 2013 world champ. Varner is a bit over rated by U.S. fans on his ability to beat top guys when in reality his best win is Valerii Andriitsev. 
125kg Komeil Ghasemi (B-R) dec. Bobby Telford (TMWC), 3-1(Telford is looking good so far at heavy. IDK how he looks against Dlagnev, Rey, Gwaizdowski, or Bradley but pretty sure he can beat at least one of them.)

The collegiate style is actually really great the way there is no breaks between rounds an the whole emphasis on ground techniques like the riding positions are actually really beneficial for endurance,  and the way the refs step bback and don't interfere with quick call etc,  just let the match flow , man i love this ****!

In the iowa duel there you can hear the commentators talk about rule changes, will probably never happen but if they allow even leg locks or arm submissions (forget about vhokes) back into collegiate style before it was watered down, man itthink it would be beneficial

They allowed arm and leg locks in Collegiate wrestling before?

@rappinpapsoda if you watch the above catch wrestling podcast they go into it, in the old days, "rules" were often decided on the day/spot, there were all holds including chokes, going into modern  times chokes were the first to be cut out, then other holds, then your left with what we have today, watered down versions of wrestling which are still beautiful powerful arts, but me being me I would still like at least 1 hold to be legal ... arm locks leg locks .. will never happen now though

If Collegiate had submission holds today, I bet you would have a lot less of the multiple NCAA winners.

I remember watching a video(forget what it was) and it talked about Frank Gotch and Georg Hankenschmidt. I am not sure if they fought each other but one of them was in a match in front of a whole stadium and one got caught in a toehold and would not tap and they got their shin or ankle snapped.  That stuff seemed raw.

@wastelandwanderer I'm happy you've taken interest in the thread but usually I just run it for results on freestyle and greco. If you feel so inclined you can go set up a catch wrestling thread or something but the main concern here is that of freestyle and college rankings and discussion.

Personally I much rather prefer Freestyle to folkstyle as it puts a greater emphasis on action and higher scoring technique.
