There has been a lot of talk here about Berge and the lack of RPI, etc. which is going to kill him for seeding. But I'm with @RoarLions1 on this - Berge should just rest, not worry about seed and line up for a run on the backside if necessary. He's not in a position to get seeded without a very difficult match to get to the quarters pretty much whatever he does, and placement points are a lot more significant than advancement points. A lot of unnecessary talk about our 149, 157 & 165, and points at nationals. None are probable to bonus any match there, so any significant contributions will be if you can get in podium position.
OTOH, Hildebrandt likely does have a chance to be seeded pretty high and he is also not a bonus guy, thus placing IS extremely important for him to contribute. I just noticed that he has 8 matches so far. Rider makes 9. He's not going to get six more matches at B1Gs and the minimum for an RPI is 15. If the lack of RPI drops him 4 or 5 or 6 seeds, to me that could really impact his path and give him an additional very tough match to place. What do you think happens with this? Maybe I haven't looked closely enough at it and it won't matter, but IDK.
