Thoughts on Tournament (High and Low) Most Exciting time of the year!!!
Alright. I could be way wrong and a bit over pumped on our Hokies, BUT i also could be spot on :-) Bring on the haters and bring on the comments.
125 - Better chance of winning the lottery then to pick a champion here. Although Cooper has had some issues, i believe this time off he is making the adjustments. I think Cooper can can make it to quarters but I'm not quite sure he can handle Ayala. If he happens to beat him, i do feel then he can make it to the finals. I think Ramos wrestles well and makes it past Davis at PSU. Also have to watch out for Mckee and Stanich has to watch out for Deaugustino. I think either can take out comacho.
Low - DNP - High - 4th
133 - Let's just stay that if and i mean if Latona is on and going after it, he can beat anyone. He has beaten Vito, Orine, Shawyer but not sure he can beat Fix. Also think Crookham is no joke but if Vito gets him a 3rd time, on the big stage, Vito beats him.
Low - 7th - High 3rd
141 - Crook is having a solid year but his struggles against top competition has showcased all year. This is a tough tough weightclass. Getting passed Titus on the first round is going to be rough and if he wins he gets Jack again.
Low - DNP - High 8
149 - This is one that I think our boy Henson (who has a great draw) gets it done. I don't even think he will see lovett. Don't be surprised if Casey Swiderski from ISU takes him out. Either one though i think Caleb gets it done. Into the finals, it should be gomez or parco. and I think on the big stage, Caleb gets it done there as well.
Low - 3rd - High 1st
157 - Picking with my heart, of course I bet on Andonian all day long being his last tournament. I just don't think his knee is good enough for him to do what he does best which is letting it fly. I think we see him meet Ed scott and I just can't pick against BA but i think Levi is too much. My concern is if he loses, coming back will be tough. Going to be a bit of an optimist on this one though.
Low - DNP High - 4th
165 - Just don't know what CB we are going to see. If this is his last year, then Let it fly and go for broke. I actually think if he wrestles hard and loose, then he can beat Messenbrink but keeping his head on him for 5 matches will be tough.
Low - DNP High 7th
174 - Screw this **** about injuries and seeds. Mekhi goes for broke and I think he gets it done. I am actually more worried that he beats Starocci then loses some focus for his next match against Griffith but i do believe he gets it done.
Low - 3rd High 1st
184 - Let's have some fun and this is my post so my rules. TJ is primed for this. He has won his entire career. If he makes it to Salazar, i think he gets it done. Then comes most likely Plott from OKST and again gets it done. He is wrestling with confidence. I believe Keckeisen will get it done on his end and TJ will face him. If he does get there, just remember Mekhi against Joseph. Big stage, can't be taken down and super strong. He also has a gas tank now. Let's go out a champ
Low - 3rd High 1st
197 - now that i have come off the goofballs i have been on, this is where reality kicks in. This weight class is stacked. Any puts up a fight but i think he struggles in his first match and then he may last another match or maybe two. Great person; great career but don't see it happening.
Low - DNP High DNP
HWT - I think Catka will pull the seed upset in his first match and maybe gets past davison from michigan in his 2nd, but then if he gets bastida, that is a bad bad man. Then he flips to the other side of the bracket and it will be a long road for him. I'm rooting for him to upset some folks and wishing him the best.
Low - DNP - High 8th
Let's go Hokies...

125 is very even but I wouldn’t say it’s the deepest in ncaa history. **

Agree. I think 157 is deepest weight. 125 is just balanced. **
