When you have Cole Martin at #13 and Pletcher at #18, Snyder at #4, Zain at #2,etc.,etc. it makes it difficult to take your rankings seriously.

Keep in mind that it isn't just who you beat, but how you beat them (ie. majors, techs, falls). If I rated based solely on wins, Pletcher would likely rank higher, but when your only tech-fall victory over a D-1 wrestler is Jackson Renicker (and you have no wins by fall over anybody else), that's going to hurt, especially when you have opponents who are in the 70s.

As far as Snyder at 4 and Zain at 2, that's largely a function of the schedules they've wrestled. Zain's schedule improved a fair amount this week, but it still ranks just 27th. Tack on the fact that Collica teched a darned good wrestler in Alex Kocer, and that was the difference in Collica staying above Zain this week (something I, admittedly, was surprised to see at first). Likewise, Snyder's SOS is just 56th (of the 76 starters at the weight), which is what's weighing him down.
