Who will be the champs at 133, 157 & 184?

There will be a lot of exciting wrestling next weekend. But I can only create a poll with three questions, so I chose 133, 157 & 184 — they are among the most talked about weight classes this year. Let’s hear it.

It pains me to say, but I think 2 of the 3 will be PSU.  Not sure which though.  With little confidence, I voted Blaze, Duke, Sinclair

[Mizzou Fan]

I don't understand the number of people voting for McEnelly.  Hasn't he lost to both Sinclair and Welsh this season?  I'm picking Sinclair!  He's improved considerably over the season.  I understand he has the most takedowns of all weight classes over the course of the entire season.  That's an amazing stat for someone in the 184 weight class.

I am really interested in Larkin/Duke. We haven’t seen Duke wrestle anyone with Larkin’s length and counter scrambling ability. Larkin will have to ride to slow him down though otherwise Duke’s gas tank could be the difference.

Idk if he’ll win but the amount of people sleeping on Ty Watters is crazy. He has two 1 point loses to Larkin that could have gone either way and his other loss he got completely screwed against Zerban. He has a higher ncaa finish than 6 of the guys in that poll.

He doesn't even have that hard of a path. Certainly, Shapiro is tough out, but compared to the road Robideau has with possibly Zerban R2 and Larkin in the quarters.

157 is the weight I am most excited about. Truly think any of the top 12 seeds could win. There are some really good R2 matches, and pretty much every quarter should be a banger. Plus, most of these guys want to wrestle and put points on the board. 

133 lost a little shine with Jax/Seidel and Blaze/Davino on the same sides. Also, it is more top heavy. Aside from Larkin, don't think anyone can really hang with the top four.

Did anyone watch the Va Tech v Ok State dual? The Jax bandwagon simply ignores the Seidel match, a repeat from high school. Third time will be a charm for Aaron.

You could've put quotes around that and cited Pyles...

Agreed. The hype around Jax is warranted but the gap has been closed by Seidel. I’m a vt homer but realistic too. I’m not a betting man but if I did I’d take Seidel in a heartbeat

Oh man well I guess two great minds are in alignment

According to forum prediction results 133 ytd Jax is at 47%. The new yellow hairdo I can do without.

Before I was bald, I was blonde - blonde's indeed have more fun

 

I'm also aware of the irony of being bald and my photo ID
