Just Wondering.

It looks like the seedings for the national duals involving Iowa will be,
Iowa
OregonSt.
IowaSt.
Virginia Tech
UNI
Wisconsin.
Now I know that 3vs6 and 4vs5. So, who will Iowa wrestle? I'm guessing the winner of 3vs6.

Wouldn't it be 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3.

 

[goiahawks]

Assuming that Iowa is seeded #1 they will face the winner of #4 vs 5. The 2 & 3 seeds will be on the same side of the bracket.

 

[castille]

I know thats how it works with eight teams. But with six teams? Maybe I'm just making it hard.

 

[Dominate]

In the first round, seeds 1 and 2 will receive a bye with seeds 3 and 6 and 4 and 5 wrestling each other.

You missed my opening post.

If Iowa is ranked #1 they'd go against the winner of 4v5..

The #2 seed will take on the winner of 3v6..

Brackets like that kinda "Assume" the highest seed will win.

So 2 would face 3 in the next round, essentially.

1 would face 4.. which would get back on track into a traditional bracket, so to speak.

I've always hated the word assume, but i'll take your word for it.
Matches will run at 11:00, 1:00, and, 3:00.
$25.00 Adult all session and $15.00 Student all session. Of the four regionals, IowaState charges the most.

They should be, supply and demand.

ISU is 3-12 overall, 0-6 in Big 12. How are they ranked 13th nationally?

I was wondering the same thing. What a mess!

 

[castille]

I like looking at WIN's Tournament Power Index. They have, Iowa 4th, OregonSt 16th, ISU 20th, VirginiaTech 24th, UNI 31st, and Wisconsin 50th. I also noticed that there is going to be a live blog from TOMS Open Mat starting at 11:00.

One of the things I noticed is that they continue to rank Spangler at 174# at #5. That's worth 10 points. Take that away and they would be ranked around 23 or 24th.. I read on the mat that it looked like spanglers season is over.

 

[AFHawk86]

castille - both Spangler and Ward are confirmed by KJ for this weekend.

 

[castille]

I knew Ward was. I'll recheck on Spangler. Maybe I read it wrong.

 

[castille]

The brackets for all the regionals are on THE MAT.COM. Ward is confirmed but Spangler isn't. The doctor cleared Spangler to get back on the mat and Jackson said that "He was hopeful that Spangler might wrestle". Read that on the Cyclone Fanatic.
