Most definately city boys. They are winning the big matches and that is what it comes down to.

Assuming that ranch kids are included as a subset of "farm boys" I guessed which Nebraska college wrestlers are "city slickers" and which are "farm boys". I capitalized the suspected "city slickers" and left the others in upper and lower case. I will edit if you indict individual status. I used the last starting lineup of each team - and listed ONLY Nebraska native wrestlers:

UNK (7) - ALLGOOD, RUTLEDGE, True, ELLENBERGER, MCCURDY, SUTTON, Sylvester

CHADRON (5) - WEBB, Palomo, Hunter, Majerus, Westerby

UNO (4) - HILARIO, WAITE, Unger, EDMUNDS

DANA (4) - Trampe, Leichleiter, LOZIER, Taylor

UNL (1) - OLIVER

11 Nebraska wrestlers who likely can't combine or mend fence

10 Nebraska wrestlers who likely won't become urban legends or be FedEx drivers in Omaha or Lincoln

look at howells wrestling program and tell me farm boys ain't straonger than city boys. NO CONTEST. GO Coutnry Boys

Wrestling yes, and especially football.Most definately farm boys! Back in the 70's and 80's as a farm boy, I was strong as a bull for my size.Now that I'm living in the city, I'm turning into jello.The only thing I can figure out is that it must be the municipal water.Yes, there must have been something in the water back home at Howells! Hey Taz, you need to drink more water! LOL

My son weighs 135 and benches 295 and he is a city boy !

How tall is he 4'6"? I don't really care what people say about Howells, line some of them boys up with some Lincoln or Omaha boys and see what happens

Yeah, 4'6", maybe shorter. he probably needs a booster bench to get the bar of the rack. i bet he would be lucky to do 250. city or farm boy, regardless that claim is crazy!

Beleive what you want, it is true !!!!

Sorry I meant 195

295 was more impressive!

WRONG AGAIN, my husband just infromed me that he does bench 295, squats 380 and deadlifts 320, so I was right after all
