Micky with the 12 (can’t argue that) second round likely vs Desanto which stinks
NCAA seeds/brackets
- Thread starter Ryno53
- Start date
Cole in a pretty good spot at the #6. Would be on collision course with Seabass in the quarters who injury defaulted out at Big Tens. Also on opposite side of Lee who has been by far the top guy in weight class
Lee is the only guy that I can't see Cole beating, if the Eierman rumor from the other thread is true.
Not liking Wentzels spot but he did deserve the ten seed. Has Kharchla potentially second round
Nino the 5th has a decent path. Preferred if he was on the bottom half but welcome a rematch with Brucki
After seeing the brackets, we are getting 3 all-Americans(nino,Cole, Mickey) I’m definitely not counting wentzel out but he’s got an extremely tough road and for some reason I think micky gets what he’s been working for. What are your guys thoughts for Pitt?
I'd agree with decent. R1 Davison from NW, not the good one. R2 Tanner Sloan is really good, and I don't love the Hoffman matchup either for a couple situational reasons. Jake Woodley beat Brucki in SV at the MSU Open this year so I'd give them an even chance to come out of that quad and face Nino.
Don't love mickeys draw Desanto is just a bad matchup and probably not enough offense to get through the backside probably DNP again
Cole looks like he has a decent shot to AA Chad Red hasn't been great this year and Rivera and Eierman both injury defaulted out of BigvTens so
Winnable 1st round match for clearly but probably DNP
Wentzel would have to beat Karchla and OToole who is a lot better then last year when Jake beat him in the tournament tough draw and also the same issue as Mickey the lack of offense probably kills him on the backside DNP
Harvey DNP
Nino I like Ninos draw they way he is wrestling. Hoffman is solid and so is either Woodley or Brucki but Nino can beat all of those guys AA
So I'll go with two All Americans
I wouldn’t be surprised if there isn’t an issue with the UNC national champs knee. He lost in ACC final and didn’t look normal at all.
Honestly, I think Micky is likely headed for a blood round rematch against Lucas Byrd. Hard to beat a good wrestler 3 times in a row so hopefully Micky can get this one. Olivieri and Hudkins are the top guys that he could run into beforehand, provided that the tops seeds don't get upset.
Cole really does have a nice setup. Most of the guys he has lost to are in the top half, and getting a less than 100% Rivera is ideal. Even if he doesn't get past Rivera, his blood round match wouldn't be terribly hard to overcome. I think Cole gets to the podium
Jake really does have a tough road. He MUST beat Karchla. He can, and maybe he even should win that match, but AA status will hinge on it. Lose and he will probably see Valencia again, which is a bad stylistic matchup for Jake.
174 is STACKED. Nearly as stacked as 165. So deep
Nino got a great draw for sure. I think he will make the semis. I think that potential matchup of Max Dean vs Nino will be an incredible match. I want to see that one BAD, and I think Nino can beat him. Dean is better overall right now, but I think Nino beats him 3 or 4 out of 10 times
