As dual season has concluded we are just under three weeks out from the Big Ten tournament. It’s a forgone conclusion that Penn State will earn the team title; however, the remaining team race and individual matches look to be where the real action is. For my money, 133 and 184 are worth the price of admission. Overall health plays A pivotal role. I’m curious weather we see Ferrari at 184, and whether or not Brandon Cannon is physically at the same competitive level coming off of injuries. Neither will be seeded all that high due to inactivity. Cannon’s lofty ranking is largely based off of one early season match at national duals. It’s unclear where he truly is. At 133, Byrd has navigated an undefeated season, but has not come into contact with any of the unbelievable freshman at this weight. Nationally, if Forrest goes this weight will be worth the price of admission from the quarters on.

This Bucks team has wrestled a hell of a season and could use some much-needed rest.

OSU gets an extra 5-7 days rest because they are finished with their duals, where the other Big Ten teams will still be wrestling this weekend.

3 weeks off is a long time. Will be interesting to see how that plays out.

A good read and preview of B10s from a PSU guy.

Per Willlie Iowa submitted Victor Voinovich at 157 and Gabe Arnold at 197 for B10.

Jumping ahead....I see Ok State, tOSU, Nebraska and Iowa State as four schools competing for 3 spots.

I feel pretty good about OSU qualifying all 10 weights. 165 might be the highest concern just because of quality wins. Everyone else has either allocated or would pick up a wild card pending something odd. You have to put people in the finals to contend. Jesse is a relative certainty. In my mind Bousakis is the next highest probability, but he hasn’t had great post seasons. After that probably Davino. Long shot odds for Feldman. With good health and great wrestling this team could have the highest AA count since 2018. Under/Over I put the line at 6. Are you higher or lower?

Ohio state will qualify 9 guys for absolute sure. Paddy is getting in regardless what happens at big tens. He is ranked 14 in coaches poll and isn’t going to fall out of top 33. All his losses are to top 15 guys also. Geog is at 16 so he’s pretty safe also.

I believe you must meet criteria which is 17 d1 matches. Cannon is 13-0. Coaches rank, rpi, and winning percentage has a minimum amount of matches to be qualified. I think the wildcards must meet criteria. If cannon is not in the top 8 at big tens he’s not going to do anything at nationals anyway. Penn state site thinks he gets the one seed. He should have the easiest path to the top 8. Hopefully he’s close 100 percent and no one needs to worry about it. Even cannon at 80 percent should be top 8.
