Wow….

Don’t love the Redding/Leake matchup in the 3/6. Hopefully good cut for Zach this week

Cody’s numbers are a little different. I don’t know enough to know what accounts for that difference, though.

That’s depressing

Because he took the lazy way out and just counted placement points.

Johnson as the 3 seed?

That is bad.

 

[Ocy Docy]

Glad to see Cabanban is wrestling. Odd Kraisser got one of the 6 allocations but got the #7 seed.

 

[buf87]

So the drawing for who gets the byes 1st round, occurs on Saturday?

Dont brackets come out Wednesday?

Is it different in the link? The chart shows him as seven without the mark for earning an allocation with 6 available. Broderson seems really weird with it saying he earned a spot but isn't seeded.

I assume the seeding is based on conference matches, vs allocations are overall record

 

[Cytasticlone]

Yeah that makes sense. My brain is still trying to connect all the dots in this very very (not)simple allocation system. A few years of following the team more closely and I still get fairly confused this time of year. This is me every time...

Head to head usually trumps everything in tournaments like this.

Let’s just make it worse and throw Rhoads in there as random draw first round. Or he can just avenge all the losses and show peak performance

Redding is probably the one guy I want to have a bye to the 2nd round. Give him some recovery time from weigh ins

Big10 and Big12 are so big now they don’t see half the teams it seems like, especially when guys aren’t wrestling any of the big tournaments. Strange how little matches they get for seeding purposes. If Redding didn’t have the biscoglia win I wonder where the hell he’d end up for seeding

 

[HGoat1]

Sucks that elam and bastida are on the same side

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Likely first round match ups

125 - unknown
131 - Redding vs Leake (CBU) - Leake pinned Redding the first go around in a dual that started at 149, so I’ll assume bad cut week for Redding.
141 - unknown
149 - Johnson vs Moore (OU) - no match ups yet
157 - Kraisser vs Gfeller (OSU) - lost 3-1 to Gfeller back in January. Should be close but don’t think Gfeller is someone that will gas out so Kraisser will have to try and score early.
165 - Carr vs Fernandes (No Co) - wouldn’t be surprised to see an unseeded guy here depending on who gets a bye.
174 - unknown
184 - Coleman vs King (SDSU) - don’t believe they’ve wrestled. Broderson lost to King 6-3 a few years back
197 - Bastida vs Bockman (UVU) - sneaky tough match up. Bockman will do nothing to try and keep it to a 1 takedown match. 5-3 match the first go around.
285 - Sammy vs Gordon (UNI) - another sneaky tough match. Gordon is quick but Sammy is good on his feet and is quite a bit stronger than Gordon. 4-1 match a few weeks ago.
