Top 2 seeds at each weight starting 4pm EST

Guess we will learn sooner rather than later how the so called matrix spits out some of the seeding. Should be interesting to see if someone like nick lee is not 2 then he could wind up at 4
 
Curious what they do at HWT as well.

If this committee sits on their collective brains and stays married to their fancy little matrix in a shortened COVID season, they could seriously jack up multiple weights classes.

Is it a 1 or 2 match difference to get to 3rd thru consis from losing a quarter vs a semi? With Eierman’s propensity to pin people ...
Consis = 2 rounds per equivalent championship round bracket.

However, placement points factor that in along with bonus.

If he lost in quarters, he'd have to finish 3rd AND pin/TF every match to get the same points as if he won the title on regular decisions.

Also consis means less rest between matches -- with every 2nd opponent dropping in from the championship bracket and thus being fresher. So it becomes increasingly harder to rack up that bonus.

I inferred your TIC comment had him losing to SeaBass in either scenario, so 1st was off the table.
 
Does Starocci get the #2 or does it go to Demetrius Romero and Starocci gets the #3?

Romero is 16-0 but no high real quality wins that I can recall. Starocci is 9-2 but four real quality wins.
