    I spoke with a two-time NCAA champ who said abs are over-rated. He won his two titles without a six pack.

    141 feels like the weight where the seeding formula can say one thing, but the seeding committee can say something completely different

    Starocci v Keckeisen: 25 H2H is N/A. 20 Quality wins is going to be real close between Starocci and Keckeisen. It will come down to how their opponents are ranked in the final coaches' poll as they both have a lot of QW's. 15 Tournament finish is a push 10 Coaches' rank probably favors Starocci 10 common opponents is a push 10 win percentage is a push 10 RPI favors Starocci So I think Starocci wins the formula and I do not see the committee reversing that.

    Yes, and no. They use that math to produce a set of seeds for the seeding committee. The committee can then move someone up or down as many as three spots. I think Starocci was #7 last year by the numbers, but wound #9 after committee deliberations.

    Yes. If the allocation earner places at least two spots below the allocation level in their conference they are automatically eliminated, so a non-earner who finished one below the allocation total could, with the right mix of other criteria, take an at-large spot. Less likely is an allocation earner finishing one below the allocation level and then losing out on the other credentials as they would have entered the tournie with a lead there.

    Ramos v Lilledahl likely comes down to whoever has the higher coaches' rank (worth 15) as Lilledahl already has 35 points in the bank with the h2h win (25) and the higher conference placement (10). Ramos has win % (10) and common opponents (10) locked up and a huge quality win advantage (either 20 or 15).

    Hell, I would say 60 seconds max and maybe even 30. And add in the freestyle dynamic. If you lose the challenge it is a point for the opponent. So many of these challenges are "just because I can" challenges.

    I hate it when guys shoot. Hit em all with stalling.

    Much respect to Caliendo. He wrestled to win that match. Attacked constantly. He did not wrestle like someone who was worried about getting bonused.

    Finals start in 45 minutes. Got to pay my check and get to the stadium. No time for Cinnabore.

    The ref did signal a team point deduction. I assume that was not reviewable and it stood.

    There is an insanely loud 10 year old Illini uber-fan sitting behind me absolutely losing his shiit and living and dying a thousand deaths with every Illini match. I want to believe he will one day take over the ILLINIWrestlingBlog.

    Two short PSU wrestlers in a row can't deal with tall opponents.

    I see it live, but it is veeeery faint.

    Thanks, Cinnabore

    The match he lost he shook hands with his left hand. I couldn't tell if it was just because he was turned that way or if the right shoulder was bothering him.
  24. Wrestleknownothing
    He scored 20 points without taking a shot.
