National Champs

[Junglekitty]

Well so far we have guessed on our seeds, and osu seeds. Let’s take a shot at the champs. I know things could change once brackets are out, but we can start now. To make it a little more interesting, pick a dark horse too.

125-Lee. Dh Fausz ( trying to pick someone out of the big 4 is pretty hard )
133-Gross Dh Brock ( gave gross a pretty good match in the conference finals )
141-Meredith Dh Lee
149-Pain Dh Deakin ( other than zain and sorenson everyone is a dark horse, but I don’t view sorenson as a dh only because he is a champ every year if zain isn’t there )
157-Nolf, seen all I had to in the two matches at bigs dh hidlay
165-Cenzo, by the way he wrestled against imar in the finals, it seems like he was possibly saving a few things. Not that I think he wasn’t trying to win, but he has a lot more tools than he showed dh marinelli
174-Hall dh amine
184-Nickal dh renda
197-Darmsdat dh shak
285-Coon dh Kasper ( anyone other than coon and Snyder is a dark horse )

BTW, NC State has the horses to make some noise if the cards fall right for them: Fausz, Jack, Hidlay, Renda, Macchiavello,

 

[BruceK-PSU83]

Hidlay is probably the #1 seed at 157. Don't know how anyone can put the "dark horse" label on a #1 seed.

 

[RD41]

125-Cruz; DH-Moisey
133-Gross; DH-DeSanto
141-Meredith; DH-None at this weight?
149-Zain; DH-Sorenson
157-Hidlay; DH-Pants
165-VJ; Does Massa count as a DH?
174-Valencia; DH-Amine
184-Bo; DH-Marsteller
197-Darmstadt; DH-Rotert
285-Coon; DH-Anyone other than Snyder

Hidlay is probably the #1 seed at 157. Don't know how anyone can put the "dark horse" label on a #1 seed.

That's easy. When no one expects someone to win, but he can win, he's a dark horse, even if he is the 1 seed.

Cruz is a good example. He may be the 1 seed, but I haven't seen a single person pick Cruz to win 125.

125-Cruz; DH-Moisey
133-Gross; DH-DeSanto
141-Meredith; DH-None at this weight?
149-Zain; DH-Sorenson

197-Darmstadt; DH-Rotert
285-Coon; DH-Anyone other than Snyder

Marsteller is 165

 

[El-Jefe]

Marsteller is 165

So he's a very dark horse at 184?

 

[tabenn]

So he's a very dark horse at 184?

Actually he might have a better shot at being top 4 at 184

 

[bwfight]

Isn’t Chance more of a ginger horse at 184?

 

[El-Jefe]

Isn’t Chance more of a ginger horse at 184?

Bo Nickal is the ginger horse at 184.

 

[bwfight]

Of course. Chance is the ginger horse at 165. My bad
