NC State shooting for 8 spots? Possible for 133 and long shot for 197?

TheStateGuy OP
yea ... 8 is most likely ... 141 and 197 are most risky
but Hohman beat the Stanford kid ... so there's a shot ... don't see Knop making it at 197

TJ will need to do work to qualify

2 changes to score a big win and qualify
Both against guys he has beaten. He'll get Heller on the topside, and if he doesn't win and qualify there, he will likely get Kane for 3rd.

More than I thougth...we have a solid chance to send all 10
especially with 5 at large bids at 184 if TJ doesn't perform. ** Edited by VPIGUY at 2/27/2025, 3:38:46 PM

Agree. I expect we send 10
If you don't finish top 3 in ACC you probably aren't gonna do anything at nationals anyway.

He likely wouldn’t receive an at large
He isn’t in the coaches poll or RPI. Other guys would jump him. He needs to place top 3 at ACC’s or he won’t get in. Same thing possibly for Wollak to place 4th

RPI and Coaches just released too...
Eddie 3 RPI / 5 Coaches Connor NO RPI / 11 Coaches Sam 11 RPI / 10 Coaches Caleb 3 RPI / 1 Coaches Raf 7 RPI / 9 Coaches Mac 23 RPI / 26 Coaches Lenox 13 RPI / 31 Coaches TJ NO RPI / 27 Coaches Andy 11 RPI / 14 Coaches Jimmy 7 RPI / 13 Coaches If TJ doesn't finish 3rd or better, he might get into the RPI, but his coaches would likely fall out...I think you are correct that there will be no at large for him if he doesn't get 3rd or better.

Tjs 27th in the most recent nwca coaches poll. And there's big separation
Between 29 and 30+. I agree that he's not a sure thing but with only 25 automatic bids it does bode better that even with an upset and bid steal or two at conference he's in decent shape to make top 33 at large. That being said go win the damn thing hahaha Overall good news for the acc that every weight has 3+. Makes all the third place matches matter and let's a lot of guys on the bubble control their own destiny

Assuming TJ gets the 4 or 5 seed, he would get the one seed (Heller) in the
second round (assuming he wins against UVA). If he doesn't beat Heller in the 2nd round (who will have a bye), he would have to wrestleback and win 2 more matches to get to 3rd place which would likely be against the loser of Kane and Fishback. He is going to have a tough road to wrestle four matches when we know he doesn't have the biggest tank. I think it may be beat Heller to go to the finals or bust for TJ...
