What's this?

Maybe there will be less 1st rnd upsets, but there are positives to this.


One of my biggest peeves with the random seeds is the large number of same conference rematches in the 1st round. While this will not eliminate those, it should reduce the number of those rematches between conference opponents that are on the same talent level - example - Ramos vs Bolen last year.

I like that it will reward top 6 or so seeds for their accomplishments during the year.

Also now a middle of the pack guy (17-25 seed) that's likely not to AA, but still is good enough to win a few matches for you doesn't have to risk facing the #1 seed 1st round.

  They are going to seed the entire bracket this year. -- dallasvt 10/09/2018 8:51PM
  How does that impact.... -- wasris 10/10/2018 05:12AM
  IMHO it impacts the season long strategy. -- Hokie Flyer 10/10/2018 08:11AM
  It seems to me they should seed all wrestlers, but it also seems to me -- dallasvt 10/10/2018 09:20AM
  On the topside yes, but look deeper. -- Rokie08 10/10/2018 7:08PM
  Agreed. Potential for stealing points for lower teams will go down. ** -- Hokie Flyer 10/10/2018 10:22AM
  Not a fan of this... -- VPIGUY 10/10/2018 10:39AM
  That is a pretty big change ** -- Hokie Flyer 10/09/2018 9:08PM
