As expected, we have some work to do at 141, 157 and 165. I think even if Cooper falls outside the top 7 he'd get a bid, but Grothus and Rhoads each have to finish top 7 and 6 respectively.

Kind of surprised 165 only has 6 spots for a pretty loaded weight class with Jordan, Jordan, Rodrigues, Perrotti, Rasheed, Welch, Wilson, Martin, Sutton...
 
If I am correct, in order to qualify 165, PSU and Iowa have to finish ahead of either I Jordan, B Jordan, Rodrigues, Perroti, Welch and Wilson. Ouch.
 
There are only 4 ranked wrestlers at 141 (PSU is not ranked) in the big 10 and 7 at 165. I think Brody can make it in. I wouldn't expect Rhoads to make it, but we'll see.

I may be completely wrong, but my understanding is that Brody didn't get enough matches for Iowa to qualify for a spot at Bigs. So, the 7 allocated spots would be reduced by 1 to 6.

Nope, if Brody finishes in the top 7 he'll qualify for NCAA's. If he doesn't he won't be getting an auto-bid since his resume isn't that great this year.

The 7 AQ spots for the B1G at 141 were earned by: Jordan, Ashnault, Thorn, Abidin, Oster, Gasca and Gulibon.

Technically, he could place ahead of all of them and not qualify. All The AQ means is that they have made it that as long as they all participate in the tournament the Top 6 placewinners qualify for NCAA's. So essentially, their SOLE FOCUS shoule be on placing top 6 regardless of who AQ'd.

I may be wrong but pretty sure Sabatello earned an AQ and not Gulibon. Sabatello was 24th in CR and 27th in RPI where as Gulibon was 21st in CR and not in the RPI and was nowhere near the .700 winning percentage

This is what I thought with 8 guys in the TOP 20. I was and still am puzzled.

You are correct. Sabatello was the 7th not Gulibon.
