Eagle26 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Obviously, Starocci v Lewis has the most star power, but I’m guessing it’s going to be mainly a defensive battle. A few I think will be great matches are Hamiti v Carr, Haines v Robb, Andonian v Scott, Arrington v Gomez, Mendez v Hardy, and Noto v Ramos. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interviewed_at_Weehawken Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Based on yesterday, I'm thinking Vito looks to be a strong favorite over Orine. Ramirez - Caliendo? Ramirez seems to be the favorite, but not prohibitively so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yotti4 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Davis and figs at 125 will be a good one. Mendez is on a roll, I don't think hardy hangs with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendez is performing just as he predicted during a recent interview before the event. No one is stopping him from appearing on top of the podium Saturday night.

Nittany Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Hardy is a tough out for anyone - the guy is really unorthodox and a great scrambler. Smart money says Mendez, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Hardy take this one. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richferg Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 As important as Starocci/Lewis is, I think it has high potential to be boring. The hot quarterfinal is Carr/Hamiti 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not see that but what are your thoughts? Depends on which Beau shows up - the one that opened up and beat Woods soundly in the Iowa dual, or the more tentative (and typical) one that lost at the Big 10 tournament. I think he makes the finals, but I don't think he'll win it all. The guy just needs to open up, but mostly refuses to.

The hot quarterfinal is Carr/Hamiti It will definitely be close. Carters bulky knee brace is obviously a hindrance but the question is does he remove it in order to defeat two former NCAA champs this afternoon? My prediction: 5-3 Starocci over Meiki with or without the brace. Edited March 22 by Rassling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My prediction: 5-3 Starocci over Meiki with or without the brace. Close 6-5 (which would be great), or 2-1 decided by stalling point. Both looked very non aggressive in the Rnd of 16 win last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Can Eric Armbar Barnett keep it rolling? His single leg defense is very.... unique. I think he beats Smith and heads to the semi finals as a 10 seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Hardy as a wrestler and as a person after listening to a few of his interviews. It would be nice for him to win but this weight belongs to Mendez and OSU. I’d also like to see Tom Ryan honored with another national champ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
