500 wrestler Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I think Murin finally AAs this year. But 3rd is not realistic, particularly if Gomez is not out. Murin’s not beating any of Yanni, Sasso, or Gomez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are probably at greater risk of getting bumped to 3rd with a few falling short than a serius challenge for team 1st. They found a way to keep the dual kind of close, bu don't think that will work as well at NCAAs. Skeptical of Woods and Murin going 2/3, but maybe. I think there is parity at 141 and Woods will have some close matches by the quarters. So 2nd not a bad guess. Murin is as likely to get 7 or 8 as #3. Just not there that he is top 3 at one of the toughest/deepest weights. Depth at 141 and 149 is like night and day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite, being a current runner-up, Warner is not a reasonable title pick right now. 3rd is quite lofty at this point. I would, however, pick Woods to win 141 myself. Murin at 3…could happen. 7/8 or R12 is more realistic. As a whole, that series of projections is very ambitious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yes, winning it is the best case for everyone (smart a**). With these two individuals it is well within the realm of possibility for them to win a title. Woods has wrestled great all year and is a top title contender with Alirez. Warner is a returning finalist who was in OT last year in the finals. He has not looked great this year but he did not look great last year and made the finals. He wrestles better in March. I would not pick Warner to win a title, but I would not have picked him 2nd last year or 4th in 2021 either. That all being said, Murin projected as 3rd seems like a stretch. I would love to be wrong though and hope he gets over the R12 hump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
