Good stuff but do you have a projection table on who might still be without assuming two more duals and conference tourney?

The conference tournaments do not matter for RPI purposes as the pre-allocation spots are determined prior to the tournaments. Then the tournaments can be used to fill the spots.

It is only dual and tournies prior to 2/26 that count.

So anyone sitting on 12 or fewer matches will probably need to pick up a tournie somewhere to get to 15.

Scanning I see:

• DeAugustino, Figueroa, and Trombley at 125,
• Arujau, Fix, Schriever, Rini, and Madrigal at 133, 
• Vasquez, and Carlson at 141,
• Gomez, and Gioffre at 149
• Lewan, and Lee at 157
• no one at 165
• Starocci, Lewis, Mocco, Turley, Wolak, Eischens, and Sparks at 174
• Truax, and Howard at 184
• Brooks, and Elam at 197
• Kerkvliet, Schultz,  Pitzer, Luffman, Gordon, and Tinker at 285

Surber?

Good list, glancing at it one can pick out the guys who aren't gonna care about a RPI.

Yes, Surber too. I was looking at the Intermat rankings which have him 11-3, but 4 of those were against non-D1 and won't count for RPI. So I am sure there are others.

BTW:  surprised you had no comment on "dual" definition in other thread.

You know I love some word play, so I am ok either way.

One thing I said above needs to be corrected. RPI is also one possible criteria in the at-large qualification process.

But I forgot, is it needed to qualify spots let's say for someone like Surber?

Not necessarily.

From the NCAA selection criteria grid:

A wrestler needs 8-matches to trigger winning percentage standard. A wrestler with less than 8 matches would not be eligible for the winning percentage and RPI which means they could not meet 2 of the 3 standards. A wrestler DOES NOT need 15 matches to earn an pre-allocated spot for the conference, if the wrestler meets the threshold in winning percentage and coaches rank.

Yeah he is right at 70% but has Buchanan and Glazier remaining so lose to either and drops below.

Some guys have also changed weight - Like Olguin who has 5 matches right now... Also Braxton Brown went up. Not sure about others who are in that position.
