Looking for inputs on some of these weights as my numbers aren't adding up. I cross checked my previous predictions for the B1G and some weights aren't clear cut based on the RPI and Coaches' Ranking (I realize there's a third component, winning %, but this category wasn't listed).
For 125 there are 7 wrestlers on both lists so I assume these are the guys (McD, Mega, Delgado, Triggas, Thorn, Boyle, and Eppert).
For 133 there are 5 guys on both lists (Stieber, Ramos, Dardanes, Thomas, and Conaway) and 7 spots. There are 3 others listed on only 1 list (Graff, Quiroga, and Nagel). I assume that 2 of these 3 earned the other 2 B1G spots at this weight. How do I know which 2?
For 141 there are 6 wrestlers on both lists (Stieber, Ballweg, Dardanes, Pearsall, Kiley, and Nelsen) so again, I assume these are the 6.
For 149 there are 7 wrestlers on both lists (Grajales, Alton, Lopou, Sueflohn, Tessark, Osterman, and Erving) and 2 on 1 list (Ness and Kelly). I assume Ness is the other qualifier?
For 157 there are 8 on both lists (DSJ, Welch, Alton, Green, Walsh, Demas, Zilverberg, and Churchard) so I assume these are the guys minus 1 (probably Churchard since he's towards the bottom of both lists) since there are 7 allocations; also, there are 2 listed on only 1 list (Watts, and Nora) so it appears there could've been more B1G qualifiers at this weight which may play into the at large spots.
For 165 there are 8 on both lists (Taylor, Polz, Massa, Moore, Yohn, Harger, Leblanc, and Wilson) so I assume these are the 8.
For 174 there are 8 on both lists (Storley, Evans, Kokesh, Brown, Blanton, Munster, Yates, and Liegel) so I assume these are the 8; although, there are 2 on 1 list only and one is Heflin (the other is Welch). At large possibilities here as well?
At 184 there are only 6 on each list (Ruth, Steinhaus, Ihnen, Lofthouse, Rizqallah, and Dallago). Seems the B1G took a hit here, especially since there are 3 others on 1 list (Magrum, Kissel, and Sheridan).
At 197 there are 8 on both lists (Wright, Schiller, Camp, Atwood, Hein, Huntley, Polizzi, and Jones). I expected more allocations here with 3 being on 1 list only (Gonzalez, Burak and Kolb). How did Burak not make the RPI?
At Hwt there are 9 allocations but only 8 on both lists (Nelson, Telford, McClure, Medbery, Capont, Chalfant, Lawson, and Apland ). McMullan is only on 1 list.

Probably a dumb question, but does the Big Ten usually get so many more spots than every other conference?
yes, based on having more teams and being the premier wrestling conference

Yes, see this thread for B1G seeding predictions. http://www.hawkeyenation.com/forum/wrestling/56824-big-ten-wrestling-tournament.html
