2016 Allocations - Guesswork

[LutherAce]

So, i put together the weights and tried to provide best guess as to number of allocations will be allotted to B1G this season. I went with the criteria of winning .700% (from Wrestlestat results), top 33 RPI, Top 33 Coach Rank. Now, i know there are some that might be added because of certain wrestlers (Snyder at 285) but based on the stats right now, I think this is close.

Gold = All 3 Criteria Met
Silver = 70% winning and 1 of the RPI or Coach Rank, which in this case, all Silvers do not have RPI rating
Fringe = Has RPI and Coach Rank, but not the winning %, which can be adjusted per NCAA.

125 - 5
Gold - Iowa, Indiana, Nebraska, OSU, PSU
Fringe - Minnesota, Michigan

133 - 7
Gold - Illinois, Neb, NW, OSU, PSU
Silver - Iowa, Maryland
Fringe - Minnesota, Rutgers

141 - 5
Gold - Minnesota, OSU, Rutgers
Silver - MSU, NW
Fringe - Nebraska, Purdue

149 - 5
Gold - Iowa, Michigan, Nebraska, PSU, Purdue
Fringe - Indiana, Rutgers

157 - 4
Gold - Illinois, Iowa, PSU, Rutgers
Fringe - Marlyand, Minnesota, Nebraska, Purdue

165 - 7
Gold - Illinois, Nebraska, PSU, Purdue, Rutgers, Wisconsin
SIlver - OSU
Fringe - None

174 - 6
Gold - Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, OSU, PSU
Fringe - Michigan, Purdue, Rutgers, Wisconsin

184 - 5
Gold - Iowa, Michigan, Nebraska, Rutgers
Silver - PSU
Fringe - Wisconsin

197 - 6
Gold - Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, PSU
Silver - OSU
Fringe - None

285 - 4
Gold - Iowa, Minnesota, Rutgers
Silver - Michigan
Fringe - Illinois, Nebraska, OSU (Snyder)

Why doesn't Clark qualify as "Gold"?

Didn't have enough match's against D1 competition. i think he's sitting at 16 matches when they were released 2 weeks ago...but he has already earned an allotment place for the weight with his silver status.

Someone will come along and correct me, i'm sure.

Short is 12-9 (57%), doesn't have RPI, but is Ranked #14

Wanzek is 16-9, RPI is 15, Rank is 27.

I would expect both to move to Gold Status before B1Gs
