Reminder:
I use Intermat, Flo, and Wrestlestat individual rankings.
I treat the rankings like they are seeds.
EP (expected points) are based on the average advancement and placement points scored by each seed from 2010 - 2022.
Max Place & Adv assume each wrester wrestles to seed and takes the most optimal path (advances in the championship bracket as far as possible).
Mean Place & Adv assumes each wrestler wrestles to seed but takes the average path for places that have multiple paths.
Expected AA is the probability weighted number of All-Americans a team can expect.
All sorts are based on EP.

With Missouri, Cornell and Iowa State moving up it looks to be a three team battle for the last two podium slots.
Meanwhile Arizona State, and Ohio State head in the other direction having dropped 12 and 14 points, respectively, from their expected totals. Both teams will look to reverse what has been a rough start to the season.
At the top, there has been a modest tightening, but PSU still holds an expected 16.1 point lead over Iowa.
