Those 40 qualifiers were also under the old NCAA qualifier formula. Thankfully, that formula was last used in the 2007-2008 season.

Right...any rules that limit travel are conference rules, not NCAA rules. For example, the Big Ten limits teams to 13 wrestlers travelling if there's one dual in a weekend, 15 if there's two. But there is no overarching NCAA rule.

Totally not true. Any rule that limits this is either from the tournaments or the conferences.

Big Ten Championship scores based on the Dual Impact Index: 1. Iowa, 174 2. Penn State, 130 3t. Nebraska, 109 3t. Ohio State, 109 5. Minnesota, 89.5 6. Wisconsin, 81 7. Northwestern, 74.5 8. Purdue, 70 9. Michigan, 59.5 10. Illinois, 46 11. Michigan State, 35.5 12. Rutgers, 31.5 13. Indiana, 6.5 14. Maryland, 1.5 Note that this does not include Berge, however, Berge mathematically couldn't make up a 44-point difference between Iowa and Penn State.

Erminio8, not sure about the latter question, but the answer to the first question is actually yes/no.

Nebraska-Omaha. Would never root for them, in anything, and not even against the University of the Satanic Cult (and that's not supposed to be an acronym for anything).

Permanent, until it's changed again, presumably. (the initial limit was 15, and was changed to 17 for 2011...stayed at 17 until this year)

None of them do. In fact, unless they attend an open, of those three, only Lee will have enough matches for the second RPI. Note that the minimum to be included was dropped from 17 to 15 this year.

There aren't any. No team has had fewer than twelve different starters, aside from Presbyterian with ten, and Presbyterian has rolled out at least three of the Forfeit brothers in every dual.
