Show_Me 340 Report post Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) The 10 Teams that will likely be battling for Top 4. Obviously, Penn State is almost certain. The battle for 2nd thru 4th could be very interesting. Weight class changes, additional transfers, Redshirts & injuries will all have an impact on what order these teams place. Lineups were my "best guess" from various message boards. Thoughts ? Penn St. 125: Schnupp 133: Young 141: Lee 149: Berge/Verk 157: Nolf 165: Joseph 174: Hall 184: Nickall/Rasheed 197: Nickall/Rasheed 285: Nevills/Cassar Iowa 125: Lee 133: Desanto 141: Murin/Turk 149: Lugo 157: Young 165: Marinelli 174: Kemmerer 184: Wilcke 197: Warner 285: Stoll Oklahoma State 125: Fix 133: Pic 141: Brock 149: Lewallen/G'Feller 157: Lewallen/Martinez 165: Joe Smith 174: Rogers 184: Geer/Jacobe Smith 197: Weigel 285: White Ohio St. 125: Heinselman 133: Pletcher 141: McKenna 149: MiJo 157: Hayes 165: Romero 174: Campbell 184: Martin 197: Moore HWT: Singletary Michigan 125: Mattin 133: Micic 141: Storr 149: Amine 157: Pantaleo 165: Massa 174: Amine 184: Embree 197: Striggow 285: Ready/Parris Missouri 125: Punke/Johnson 133: Erneste 141: Eierman 149: Leeth 157: Fortuna/Mocco 165: Flynn 174: Lewis 184: Marriott 197: ? 285: Myers Arizona St. 125: Millhof 133: Kramer 141: Smith 149: Maruca 157: Shields 165: A.

HokieFan 90 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 For VT, I think it will be: 157 - Lewis 165 - McFadden 174 - Bolen 184 - Zavatsky but it could be: 157 - Laprade 165 - Lewis 174 - McFadden 184 - Zavatsky (Bolen redshirt) The 3 transfers definitely make next year more interesting in Blacksburg.

IMO, it will all depend on Lewis's ability to make and hold 157. Lewis wrestled Junior WTT at 163 & McFadden wrestled U23 at 174.

Lewis just did an interview with Jason Bryant and it sounds like 157 is the plan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MSU158 2,009 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 Michigan could do some musical chairs around 141 and 149. Still, I expect Silva to stay in redshirt. 125:Mattin 133:Micic 141:Storr/Freeman 149:Amine/Storr 141 looks to be the best spot for Silva, which would make sense for Storr and/or Freeman to get a head start at 149. 157:Pantaleo 165:Massa 174:Amine 184:Embree 197:Davison/Striggow Striggow may big brother him for a bit, but Davison is legit. 285:Ready-Unless they decide to go all in with Parris right out of the gate.

Show_Me 340 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 As the Title of the thread was "Trophy Contenders", I drew the line at Top 10 Teams and that is probably a real stretch for realistic chances of finishing in the Top 4. Although Minnesota, NC St., Rutgers & a few others could crack the Top 10, I don't think they are Trophy candidates. 2 Peso and mlbruem reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Show_Me 340 Report post Posted June 13, 2018 (edited) From "Transfer Thread". "NCAA just permitted immediate penalty free no permission required transfers. This arms race just got another boost. Can't wait until a school wins a natty title with half their line up or more being poached athletes. That should eventually happen in hoops and wrestling." =========================================== Transfers are affecting the Team Trophy race. Just about every Trophy contender has a transfer that will score Team Points.
