What's this?

It seems to me Marinelli at #2 is B10/Iowa bias

DMF has better NCAAT finishes and beat him head-to-head in a placement bout in the NCAAT.

Wick:
RS
3rd at 165 (lost to DMF but finished higher - could argue Wick had a better consolation draw).
4th at 165
2 head-to-head losses to DMF

DMF:
6th at 165 as TF
RS
5th at 165
5th at 174
2 head-to head wins against Wick

Wick has slightly higher NCCAT finishes. So, you have to give him credit there. I can accept Wick being ranked higher (lower number), but I think a case could be made for DMF being ranked higher than Wick too.

And let me add, how sweet it would be for DMF to go out as a national champion at 165.

Agreed, but if Dave takes care of business he should be 1 or 2 seed @ NCAAs -- hokie576 09/26/2019 11:08AM
