[warrior285]

I don't see Holzrichter getting 4th at 132. Also I think Geers may have trouble with Jones and Allegretti

[110 PERCENT]

Your predictions are laughable. You must be from the south. Alot of thos kids you have qualifying dont have a chance but hey nothing wrong with pulling for the kids from your area.

[Billy the Kid]

Yeah you have to be from the South. You do not have two time state placer, Nasenbenny getting out of sectionals.

106

Patel and Silva would meet in the semis. I don't see anyway Burke doesn't make the finals at 106.

[barzagar]

Yeah you have to be from the South. You do not have two time state placer, Nasenbenny getting out of sectionals.

That might not be that farfetched. If he loses to Igartua which is conceivable, he may have Radcliffe in the wrestleback who beat him last week.

I've seen Nasenbeny wrestle quite a few times this year and it seems his strategy against the best competition is to waste time on his feet and attempt to win by riding out his opponent and get his escape. The only problem is that if he runs into the wrong ref he will get hit with stalling and that will be a huge wrench in that plan. It caught up with him against Radcliffe I think.

When you only win matches 1-0 or in the UTB there is not a lot of room for error.

110 Percent and Billy,

Yami is a Granite City guy, but right now he's got 56 more predictions up than you guys do. So rather than running his down, what are yours?

(Billy added his right after I posted this, so props to him)

I was only able to give 50. Could not decide on a couple and not too familiar with 145

Right on the money barzager. It is for sure a tough call but thats the way I see it playing out. We'll see.

Yes I am a Granite guy. But I really don't think my picks are that far out. I'll stand by them. The competition that the heavy hitters down here seek out has stepped up in the last few years. Especially in Edwardsville and Belleville West. Granite has always had a big schedule. O' Fallon has been coming on hard as well. Alton has some guys that can shake things up.

What stinks about a couple of the weight classes; 126, 170, 195, HWT to name a few off the top of my head, are loaded, and there will be some tears shed because of how tough they are.

Heavy weights, I see Geers having trouble with everyone in the bracket. This is tough one. There are six guys with a shot, no free rides in this one.

I just want to say that I personally don't think any of these weight classes are that loaded. It is sectionals, it is supposed to be hard to get to state.

Wow, I think you need to look again.
I do however like some of your picks and can see your point with them.

I disagree with your 145 statement of being weak... I see the second and third place winners at state coming out of here.

[ctdad]

I'm not sure what you define loaded as, but 285 has 2,3,4,10,11 (and if the order of HM means anything, 15).
