I’d like to do a side-by-side comparison of those glasses to my 2008-10 Iowa hating glasses.

125:  Lilledahl if he doesn't RS.  If he does, the weight is wide open.  Why not Ramos?  I don't think Richie Figs runs the gauntlet again.

133:  Bouzakis.  I think he has a chip on his shoulder and ready to break thru.  Training with Mendez daily helps make that happen.

141:  Mendez:  beat Alirez at BTS.  Heck of a match.  Does it again.

149: Van Ness:  comes back better than ever over Henson.

157:  Shapiro.

165:  Mesenbrink.

174: O'Toole over Haines.  Gets revenge, just like he had done to Carr previously. 

184: Starocci.  Makes history over Keck.  Must watch match.

197: Cardenas.  Ferrari is everyone's pick but I think it's been too much time off and at this level, results can be in the margins.

285: kerkvliet

Way too early.  Some alternative picks.  I reserve and revel in the right to be wrong.

I really don't think PSU gets 6...I just don't know who doesn't. Kasak may not Wrestle this year, Messenbrink may be at '57 to squeeze those guys into the lineup...but these are my initial picks.

I also don't know that Trumble is going '97 and I think I'd take him at HWT as Kerk just looked disinterested(but also dominant). 

I'll guess I'll change probably 7 picks by the time March rolls around.

Starocci at 184 all day long.

Absolutely, gotta wonder if all the Keckeisen picks are at least somewhat wishful thinking. I don’t think that would be the case if money was involved. He’s really good, but CS is a different animal.
