To limit weigh-ins but still get the amount of matches needed. I guess thats the beauty of the second week of the season, most of this is speculation and we get to discuss until it plays out. Possibly. Nothing wrong with a little speculation, that’s what message boards are for. Maybe he’s redshirting because he got a sweet NIL offer after winning the Clarion Open?

Brayden and the coaches wanted to see how his body responded at the lighter weight before making any decisions about what to do this season. Brayden will be in the lineup the next time they wrestle on December 2nd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hidlay and Keckheisen did not have similar losses. For some reason, people forget this. Last years results are taken to account, just not officially. The coaches ranking takes last years results into account, for instance. That's why Ramos was #1. Didn't matter in the end. Everyone knew Brooks was the clear #1. I only feel for the guys that get ranked between 5-12 because where they get seeded can play a huge factor on whether or not they make the podium Edited November 15, 2023 by PortaJohn I Don't Agree With What I Posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I crossed threads. I thought you were talking Braeden Davis not Brayden Palmer. I had no doubts that Palmer would be going. 1 "I know actually nothing.

nhs67 Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 A few things I find interesting about every single ranking outlet is the following, in regards to 184... Flo, TOM, Intermat, and College Wrestling Report all have it as: 1 - Keckeisen, UNI 2 - Truax, PSU 3 - Munoz, OSUW 4 - Plott, OSU 5 - Feldkamp, ISU 6 - Salazar, MIN It seems, to me, that the gents coming in to the weight are getting the benefit of the doubt with the humans. I say that because Wrestlestat's Ratings have it as: 1 - Keckeisen, UNI - 1628.32 2 - Munoz, OSUW - 1567.41 3 - Truax, PSU - 1550.65 4 - Feldkamp, ISU - 1526.15 5 - Plott, OSU - 1517.18 6 - Salazar, MIN - 1508.77 I would likely also do the same, myself. I am curious why every human ranking format does as well. Plott didn't exactly blow 174 out of the water last year and 10/18 of Truax's victories last year were a one takedown match - so he wasn't exactly blowing the rooftop off the barn either. Plott took a lot of wide-score losses last season and Truax's got decked the last time he wrestled Munoz. "I know actually nothing.

nhs67 Posted November 25, 2023 Author Share Posted November 25, 2023 Palmer not being ranked because he last wrestled unattached is fine by me.

nhs67 Posted November 28, 2023 Author Share Posted November 28, 2023 I am curious how Jacori Teemer can be ranked ahead of Will Lewan in any rankings at all. His last completed match was a loss to him. Lewan has since proven to be an all-american whereas Teemer's last actual match he ended up defaulting out of - which counts as a loss now right?

I am curious how. I know on Flo in the past they have talked about wins holding more weight than losses. I get that, okay. Teemer legitimately has zero wins since his loss to Lewan two NCAAs ago. Lewan has many wins since then. It is almost as if Andonian, Scott, and Lewan were penalized for trading wins and losses last year, despite beating most everyone else too. I know Scott lost to Blaze this year, but even before then Teemer was ranked higher. "I know actually nothing.

He went 4-2 at 157lbs the same season Teemer took 6th. What has he done at 157 to be ranked above the aforementioned gents? Rankings don't matter, but here is what I would have... 1 - Haines 2 - Franek 3 - Robb 4 - Andonian 5 - Lewan 6 - Teemer 7 - Mauller "I know actually nothing.
