2025 Inaugural Expected Points and AAs


Recommended Posts

The new season is almost here, which means pre-season rankings are finally available. I have updated my expected points by seed and probability of AA by seed to reflect results from the 16 and 33 seed eras (2014 - 2024). At least for now I did this using both Intermat and Wrestlestat rankings. I may, or may not, keep doing that. Flo is only ranking to 24 spots at the moment, so they are out. I may also do a composite ranking. Who knows? Stay tuned.

Oh, and freshmen are not yet included in any of these rankings.

Without further ado:

Wow, PSU in the lead early in the season. No one saw that coming.

I think you should do an Intermat Forums All Star Rankers Supremo Delight composite.

Take the 4 or 5 'best' gents (obviously not me) and have them rank T33.  I would be curious how that would differ from WrestleStat and/or Flo and/or Intermat.

Interestingly Wrestlestat has Gabe Arnold at 174 for Iowa while Intermat has Patrick Kennedy instead.

Wrestlestat also has Trey Munoz going 197 for Oregon State while Intermat has him at 184. And as a result Wrestlestat has Rademacher #26 at 197 on his individual page, but he does not appear on the rankings page.

Likewaise Josh Heindselman. Even though he is ranked #12 at 285 on his individual page and Juan Mora is ranked #45, because Mora is tagged as the starter, Heindselman does not appear in the 285 rankings.

Your charts are not surprising.  Can you give us the revised #s if 4 PSU guys at random broke a leg 3 days before b10s?  Maybe run all the random 4 combination to give us probability stats?  🙂

I mean... Starocci still won on one leg, so even then it might not do anything dofferent...

I'm expecting more All Americans than Edmond Ruth, Lucas Byrd and Kannon Webster. Both Brawlnagels and Luke Luffman are in striking distance in the rankings, and you can bet that the two Brawnys earned a doctorate in hand-fighting during their Greco Olympic redshirt year. They were both Honorable Mention AAs during the Covid Year. Zac has been a R12er his last two seasons wrestling. 

Plus, y'all know you are rooting for those guys!

I'm also keen to see how Ramazan Attasauov does down at 125. He's been a NQ at 133, and there's no doubt that he could be one of the biggest, tallest and strongest at the new weight if he can handle the drop. Plus, he won U23 Nationals at 57kg in the past, beating RayVon Foley and Patrick Glory along the way. Is his transition to Folk now compete? 

There are a couple of others on the edge of consideration, Braeden Scoles has the pedigree, but 165 is tough as nails, Danny Pucino has the moves and hopefully he no longer gives up a weight advantage to his opponents, and Jason Kraisser was Round of 16 two years ago and is now in an environment with some serious middleweight coaching (Poeta, IMAR, AOC).

If the over under for PSU all Americans is 6.6, I think I would take the over.  They to are a threat to make 6 or 7 finals not including 133, 157 and 197. 

6.6 does not include Lilledahl. If Lilledahl is seeded top 8 then the over/under would be 7.5.

Assuming PSU does PSU performance the question becomes can PSU get an AA performance from Davis at 133 or Kasak/Facundo at 157? If either happen they probably still hit the over.

Also, Illinois should be on the first graphic in 17th position for team points with 38.4, but Intermat has Byrd transferring from Illinois to Illinios. 

That's hilarious! Made me laugh.

Heard from a very reliable source his 3rd choice is Illinois.

I'm sure there's a Sunday comic on Byrd's decision process.

How can you have .52 of an All American? 

You cannot. But you can have a 52% chance of one AA.

Read that 2.52 as a 52% chance of 3 and a 48% chance of 2, kind of, sort of. It is actually a broader distribution, but the weighted average of the distribution is 2.52
