Penn State hasn't beaten Minnesota in a dual since 1998... Is this true?

[Ranger Dan]

BTN had a news blurb scrolling across the bottom of the screen this AM about Penn State's big victory of Minnesota in wrestling. They also mentioned that Penn State hasn't beaten Minnesota in a dual since 1998. I find this incredible to believe. In the great run of championship teams recently, surely we've beaten Minnesota in a dual... What is the real story? Is this true?

Yes, it's true. All the records available at Penn State Wrestling Club site.

Definitely some bad luck mixed in, at least over Cael's time. Last year they would of crushed them but they weren't on the schedule. The year before they got burned on an admitted bad call by the ref. The year they tied would of been a win under current tie breaker criteria. Thankfully Penn State has owned them in the events that decide championships.

Time for PSU to start their own streak. Now 2016 works against Minnesota

I prefer they haven't beaten PSU since 2015 mantra. Get's an extra year in immediately and is more in tune with the 1998 statement since there were a couple of years they didn't wrestle mixed in there.

If only there was someone who could come to this board and post such information.

I prefer no mantra, and treating them like just another opponent.
