Byrd will have to wrestle Davino, then Blaze if he wins.

ACC:

125 Ventresca vs Robinson - Ventresca will be the 1 seed. Provo should be 2 seed and wrestle Robinson in the semis. Provo beat Robinson in the dual.

Big 12:

133 Larkin vs Frost 

132 Echemendia Vs Vega

157 Robideau vs Larkin - Zerban and Watters and there, I am definitely interested in how they all 4 compete against each other, but I'm most interested in this matchup

PAC:

197 Little vs Rademacher

Big 12 guy checking in:

133 - Forrest/Frost

141 - Vega/Echemendia 2

157 - Robideau/Larkin

Ivy:

None.  Everyone has already wrestled everyone else.  Only drama is who might snag the likely single slot in a couple of weight classes.

Are you saying Blaze gets the #1 seed? Why does he get it over Byrd?

[ScottishSteel]

Justin Rademacher vs Stephen Little

Because the B10 no longer values B10 champs or NCAA champs.

RPI. Blaze was already #1 on RPI before he beat Davino, who was #2 in the coaches ranking and #3 in RPI. 

Byrd was #5 in RPI and won't have any matches against quality opponents between now and B1Gs.

Rademacher looked incredible at 213. Not so great at 197. I think he needs to do the Snyder thing and wrestle as a light heavy.

I am starting to think that as well and mentioned it on the Oregon St board recently; he was fine at CKLV (was right there w/ Elam) but I think the sustained and prolonged cut is starting to get to him. 

 

That said, Beavs have 21 days between competition and Pac12s is just a single day weigh in so that could go a long way to getting him looking and feeling better

ouch. Getting dinged over a schedule he had no control over. But I guess it's fair that he has to go thru Davino, since he didn't wrestle Davino during the season and Blaze did.

I was hoping he would adjust immediately after Attao transfered out.

Rademacher is a monster on his feet in freestyle but not sure about him moving up to heavyweight. I was at cklv.  He gave Elam all he could handle, but seemed very undersized vs Posada in the previous match.   He was beat in almost every facet, pulled a 6 point headlock out from bottom after getting taken down and rode.  On top he couldn’t hold him down at all.  I was thinking he could go 184.

He was an age level world champ at 97 kgs this year; I don't think he's getting down to 184

Yes you are right, I missed the part about 97kg.  Maybe was just the height/length.

Iowa doesn't need a heavyweight next year
