Not happy with that at all. Puts Micic and Suriano on same side of bracket. Can't see why Suriano won't get the #3 later. Now we really get a tougher draw if Desanto lands at #6 and would meet Suriano in a Quarterfinal. Micic was a No show at the Las Vegas Open where Suriano won and Micic finished 6th at B1G Tournament that Suriano Won!

They were always going to be on the same side of the bracket unfortunately. I was thinking potentially Suriano #2 and Micic at #3, but there was no way he would have fallen all the way to #4, even though ducking competition should in no way be accepted/rewarded.

I guess 6th place in the B10 and no show in various tournaments is better than winning B10.
I think Suriano should be #2.
Either way, he will have to beat both Miccic and Fix to win.
If miccic is really hurt, Suriano will have an advantage.
Miccic seemed to be the better matchup for Nick.
I am thinking Lisak will be a #6 seed and will be a tough quarter final matchup.
Would like to see Desanto at #7 through #10
(His lost to Lisak should push him down that far)

Phillipe should be at #4 or #5

All depends how they like Finesilver or Erneste

Not to sound like a broken record, but I've been saying it for years, long before my words became so dangerous: there's no easy path to the NCAA DI finals, and to gripe over how seeds play out is irrelevant. Once you're in the semis, you have no easy opponents.

Unfortunately head to head is much more important in the seeding hierarchy than removing ones self from their conference tournament. Nicky didnt get it done vs. MU. This weight class is a beast with loads of talent...imagine if Gross were added? The winner at 133 will have gone through some serious battles to get to the top of the podium.

Micic screwed himself by ducking. Whoever he’d have faced at 4 would’ve been a much easier opponent than Nick, I think. Now, we’ve got ourselves a battle in the semis.

IMO, Fix, Micic and Suriano are all pretty close. A little step ahead of DeSanto. I think Suriano is on a mission, Micic is banged up, Fix hasn't seen the competition Nick has recently, and Nick is going to win it all !

Let’s just keep rewarding guys that default out of tournies instead of punishing them.. makes perfect sense

The guys on the Flo Podcast yesterday said Micic was wearing a knee brace in the only match he wrestled this weekend. They think he might have hurt it when he wrestled Suriano at the RAC, and now he's legit banged up, and didn't feel right in that one match this weekend.
They all picked Nick Suriano to win it all. Said he is wrestling like he's on a mission.

IMHO, he needs more offense than he showed last weekend. He squeaked past both those guys. Needs to be better to get past Micic and Fix, both of whom are better than Lizak and DeSanto. I think he will get it done. But he scares me in these top matchups trying to do just enough to win.

If nicks head is clear his only tough match is fix. Def has to stop doing just enough to squeak out a win. He should of eaten up pletcher but he only took 1 shot whole match. He's a level above micic and 2 levels above desanto. Look what lizak did to ad.

I can see Micic getting the top seed though. The coaches are going to argue that he was hurt, but he beat all the guys that are in contention to have higher seeds. I totally agree from a moralistic standpoint that Micic should not get the top seed for ducking. Unfortunately we are only fans and spectators, and the facts are the facts that Micic has the best record.

Took the wrestling world by surprise last year.

Not worried about him, got injured and only wrestled 1 match in all of Jan and Feb. Lost 4-1 to Phillipi in the ACC finals. I really like Nicks draw, gets Liczak or Wilson in Qrts then winner of DeSanto vs Micic(hearing Micic has a very gimpy knee). Would not surprise me if Desanto knocks him off.

Agreed but last year it was fun to see an unseeded go at it like he did. Love the carefree-ness to go out and take it. Wish it happened more often.
