No, probably not -- especially now that we know that Iowa will be bringing back all 10 starters from the team that won the 2020-21 NCAA wrestling championship, ending the program's 11-year drought and claiming a 24th team title.

Iowa is competing in all three tournaments, but while we're very excited to see how the men's and women's basketball teams do, there's only one tournament where Iowa is truly favored to bring home hardware: the 2021 NCAA Wrestling Tournament, taking place March 18-20 in St. Louis.
