He will most likely wrestle McGee Thursday night as long as they both take care of business. For our pickems game, it doesn't matter whether Jesse is 13 or 14 in terms of affecting entry rules or wildcard scoring opportunity. All pickems entries affected by McGonagal's departure are good now. Edited March 13, 2023 by maligned BrodyHardcastle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Already a likely AA shakeup at 149. Milner out which shifts several seeds and matchups. BrodyHardcastle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will move Gomez up to #14 and prevent a second round match with Sasso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you make any changes before the tournament that involve 149 or any other weight whose seeds have changed, you'll need to consider everyone at all weights by their updated seeds.

Dam#, This did not work well for Blockhus or my picks, IMO. Blockhus goes from potential 2nd rd & quarter final matchups of Brock Mauller & Kyle Parco to Yahya Thomas & Sammy Sasso. The latter are substantially tougher IMO. The former is one of the big reasons why I took him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

base Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 For the heck of it, trying to pick a complete lineup that nobody else has chosen. Could be disastrous but hey will be fun for me and will give me interest in some other matches 125 #6 Stevo Poulin - Northern Colorado (remember the old YouTube videos of him stomping around as a little kid with the mohawk??) 133 #1 RBY - Penn State (surprised nobody has chosen him) 141 #1 Real Woods - Iowa 149 #4 Caleb Henson - Virginia Tech 157 #6 Daniel Cardenas - Stanford 165 #13 Alex Facundo - Penn State ## WILDCARD 174 #18 Tate Picklo - Oklahoma 184 #10 Travis Wittlake - Oklahoma State 197 #3 Rocky Elam - Missouri 285 #10 Zach Elam - Missouri (wanted Mason here, but couldn't make it work with my other weights - can't believe nobody has picked him yet!) Good luck and go Purdue/IU and Indiana boys! beaner2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you had an error where you accidentally took 3 guys at seeds 5-7 and only one at 11+, I used a random number generator to randomly select 197 as your error weight. Then I ran the randomizer again to choose between 11, 12, 13 seeds. You get Jaxon Smith of Maryland at 197 instead of Michael Beard so you can still join us without major frustration. 125: #1 Spencer Lee 133: #3 Vito Arujau 141: #8 Allan Hart 149: #1 Yianni Diakomihalis 157: #7 Bryce Andonian 165: #11 Cameron Amine (wildcard) 174: #6 Ethan Smith 184: #3 Aaron Brooks 197: #11 Jaxon Smith 285: #9 Lucas Davison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maligned Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 (edited) A lot of chalk in the first round: 8 pick'ems entries go undefeated, bigballerb, Sig40, & Argyll lose 1, rookie78 loses 2, and Base's "heck of it" entry loses 3 That wide-open 197 weight we're all so interested in went literally 17-0 for the higher seeds.

You'd need to take at least one guy who's been taken by 2 guys or less even if you're trying to copy everyone.

If it's any consolation, I had a really hard time choosing that 5-7 range also because there's a lot of good value in there. Andonian and Smith are definitely guys we all looked at too, so those are the others you could have lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
