[Achilles]

anybody have any predictions??? here are mine

Simmons
Fleeger
Churella
Schlatter
Henning
Churella
Herbert
Wissel
Davis
Konrad

And i think 9/10 will be in the hunt for a NCAA title two weeks later the one out being Churella because Galick and Teyon are just too good for him. However out of those ten i think Josh is the most likely to win Big Tens, also i noticed that i didn't pick any Illini guys to win it this year partly because none of them were in good shape two weeks ago and if they weren't ready then i dont think they will be ready now.

[illinifanMHS]

well i will take tirapelle he wrestle tough come big tens. And i will take Poeta in an upset, hes a machine

[BARR]

my predictions

125-Dubuque (IND)
133-Fleeger (PUR)
141-Churella (MICH)
149-Tannenbaum (MICH)
157-Tirapelle (IL)
165-Poeta (IL)
174-Herbert (NW)
184-Wissel (PUR)
197-Byrd (IL)
285-Konrad (MINN)

Top 3 teams

1-MINN
2-MICH
3-ILL

Did u select these results out of a hat? j/k but i just cant see Eustice beating dustin 6-3, that would require taking him down 2-3 times and dustin hastn' been takin down by anyone besides espo all year. Eustice beating dustin would only happen in the 3-1 or the 2-1 fashion, but none the less dustin will not loose for the next 4 years unless he moves up to 157. Also Tirapelle beating Henning 5-2 would require Tirapelle (who may be my least favorite wrestler of all time) to do sometihng, and it seems he wins matches by doing nothing. Also Clum has never lost to Reiter but if he were to loose to him it would prob be off a bear hug and he would have to get pinned, Clum will have to get through the mighty Fleeger to even wrestle Reiter. Which leads me to Herbert over reynolds, i personaly think that Herbert would major or pin Reynolds (he did last time) but i dont think Reynolds has the capacity to beat Perry. Also I dont know about Ott and simmons in the finals i think Dubuqe will beat him but other than that simmons last beat ott by a score of 14-0, so 7-5 in OT is unlikely, maybe 3-1 in OT like last year, but still doubtfull. I haven't seen Richardson wrestle but you must like him to stick him in hte finals beating Davis. Needless to say this weekend will be great i cant wait to get down there.

i have a hard time seeing tannenbaum over schlatter

Your right it would be an upset, but stranger things have happened. I think there will be a couple of upsets and Tannenbaum is one of my upset picks. I find it interesting that no one is picking Dubuque to win, he is the defending NCAA champ. As Achilles said it is going to be a great weekend. I wish I could go.

[Conquistadors]

..it is going to be a great weekend. I wish I could go. I hereby grant you permission:p .

[BARR]
