Exactly, # qualifying doesn't necessarily predict higher finish, even if we go with "upside." It may not pan out, but Nebraska has the appearance of a good tournament team. 6 great tournament guys can win an NCAA title, well as long as Penn St ain't entered in the same tournament. Related note, will Assad wrestle Sunday cause without him OSU could match up ... but of course ddm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerniePragle Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 I think some people are missing the "PSU outperforms at NCAAs" factor. There are at least a couple guys that could be moved up a notch or two due to this. I think Jimmy's pretty close except Brooks or Dean could very well win. Time will tell.

poorwrestler Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Allred and Lenny are both on . Pinto has an impressive win over Trey Munoz at CKLV I’ll give him that. Other than that has he beaten a top 15 guy? Losses to Bolen, Malczewski, Cade King, Salazar, Keckeisen, Assad, and Saha AbdulRassaq. He puts up a lot of highlight reel moves, but still has a lot of improvement to make imo. Which is to be expected as a freshman.

scourge165 Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 125-DNP 133-1st 141-4th 149-Rd 12 157-1st 165-Rd 12 (I really have no clue here....this weight is just so deep. I just think it's too easy to see Facundo losing in the quarters and then seeing a stud on the backside). 174-1st 184-1st 197-4th HWT-1st I've been arguing Haines would win it since last year...provided Carr goes '65 and he did, so I'm not gonna jump off that bandwagon now. Of the 5 Champs, I think Brooks, Starroci, RBY, Kerkvliet and Haines are the most likely, in that order to win it. I'm a little surprised people are picking against Brooks. Less so that they're picking against RBY, but I think his loss was a fluke. But...that's why this tournament is so great. It'd hardly be shocking if any of these guys lost...or, if a vet like Dean can find a way to repeat or Bartlett can manage to get to the finals and win it.

You and I have very different definitions of great tournament guys. A great tournament guy to me is someone who has done it before, not just has the potential to do it. If you extend your list to 6 then you are including Silas Allred who is ranked 10. That would mean you think there are at least 100 great tournament guys. I do not think that. I think there are currently 16 great tournament guys and PSU has 4 of them. To be a great tournament guy in my book you need to have made the final. Everything else is a good to middling tournament guy or a guy with the potential to be a great tournament guy. There are a lot of guys with the potential. But as things stand, if Allred is the 10 or higher seed he has about a 1.1% chance of making the final and a 3.3% of All-American.

Every weight class is different. You have to go by weight class not the entire field. I'd say Allred is 50/50 on AAing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
