Wrestling Penn State Wrestlers in the latest InterMat Rankings

[creamery freak]

Be careful with ChatGPT with wrestling stats. On a lark I asked it to tell me who Spencer Lee lost to in college. The answers it gave were completely wrong AND it made up some of the results with actual dates of competition. Because it did not include Ramos, it was immediate obvious. I had to correct it three times (which it politely thanked me for) before it got the correct answer.

You left out the part where it did mention his Mom's glasses though.🙂

I thought 9 was an anomaly where it had a higher incidence of AA outcomes than some better ranks … (?)

Sorry I missed this earlier, but the issue is with #10.

Depending on your lookback period sometimes #10 does better than #9. For example, if you use 2011-2024 stats #10 AAs a hair more than #9. But if you use 2010-2024 #10 AAs a hair less than #9.

My model has #9 AAing ~40% of the time and #10 AAing ~34% of the time.

Damnit. Curse of 125 still in full effect. LOL.

I been saying since the start of season that LL is the least likely to AA out of PSU lineup while most ppl were either saying LL will be champ or Davis is least likely … we will see..

Don’t you thinks it’s wild that possibly Rutgers’ best wrestler(and now a RS Jr.) would be a tossup in a postseason match and also a borderline AA candidate, against PSU’s “least likely to AA”? Just amazing, eh Dagger?

Those are both superstitions and generalizations. I don’t subscribe to either and I certainly didn’t crown anything. There you go, now your answer please?

I also thought it was interesting during the dual, that after Rutgers’ two best wrestlers had wrestled and PSU’s two “least likely to AA”, the dual was tied. Fascinating

Everyone knows PSU is the best team get ur head outa ur own ass.. and I never said Davis is least likely to AA that just seems like the general consensus, which I don’t believe to be true, but once again, we will see.

The issue is your sanctimony and self-righteousness, along with a lack of tact. Explaining the problem to you is very similar to explaining it to a little kid. And you tell me to pull my head out of my ass?

Luke has always had low odds to win. The #1 guy at that weight against the field is too, I’d say maybe 4 to 1? You’re not some groundbreaking wrestling messiah reminding PSU fans on a PSU board that they were a little overzealous in their early picks. Just a jerk.

I think LL is going to AA - great end of season sprint!

100%. LL is going to AA and I won’t be shocked when he makes the finals. Kid is a gamer and has wrestled in a ton of huge matches. No one is going to want to see him on their side of the bracket

Not sure what your point is. Are you looking for an atta-boy and pat on the back for saying something contrary to what “most people” said earlier, and the current rankings aligning more with what you had said? Seems like a weird gloat before the results are in.

Nico was the 10 seed when he made the finals as a freshman.

125 this year has Ramos, Figueroa, and everybody else. The ideal seeds avoid those 2 until the semis: 3-6. Lilledahl will likely make this range if he reaches B10 finals; but likely won't get a top 3 seed without winning B10s. (11-14 would also work but not likely.)

A 7-10 seed would draw Ramos or Figs in the quarters. This is likely if he doesn't reach the B10 finals.

His seed at B10s matters a lot for this. If he somehow gets seeded away from Ramos, then he has an excellent chance of reaching the conference finals and getting a top 6 seed. I'll defer to Roar on his likely B10 seed, because it's a crapshoot after Ramos.

Ramos and Smith wrestle tomorrow, assuming they both go. Ramos win and I would say it would have to go 1 Ramos, 2 Peterson, 3 Lilledahl, and 4 Smith. Peterson's only loss in conference is to Rivera and he beat Lilledahl. Lilledahl and Smith would each have 2 conference losses and obviously Lilledahl beat Smith.

If Smith upsets Ramos, then it's a crapshoot.

@Psalm 1 guy, I don't know if it is your birthday, but you will want to open this present right away.
