"I Got Screwed" Award goes to . . .
- Thread starter pablow

I can see how he should be the 3 instead of the 4. But the 3rd best wrestler wrestling back for 3rd..........well.......it doesn't seem to qualify for the "I Got Screwed" Award to me. If he got the 3, he "might" make the finals and then again he might not. Getting 3rd rather than 2nd doesn't seem like getting screwed to me. Sorry. But thanks for playing....
Kwood,
If he was seeded 6th, I wouldn't say anything. But, my point was he was put on the side of the bracket with the only guy he can't and won't beat. The difference between Carter and Port is minimal. The difference between the top 3 and the rest is substantial. He made the finals last year just coming off injury. Putting him on the same side as Stieber is wrong.

I get it and it's just that it's not the seeding is so bad.....it's just that Logie Bear is so good. Whoever gets that side is screwed.
But reverse it and Port is getting screwed. And if they are so close to each other...... it really is a coin flip then.
Actually there are 32 wrestlers in that class that got screwed.
I think Delgado got hosed. I don't really care for him as a wrestler, but to have a two-time champ not get seeded... kind of bogus if you ask me. All because he had a bad Big Ten Tourney.
He didn't have a bad tourney. He got out-Delgado'd by Tomasello and then forfeited the 3rd place match. He didn't need a WC because he took 4th and the B1G earned 5 spots at 125.

He gets Habat 2nd round if he gets by Ruggirello in the 1st round so he will have to do his damage on the backside I would guess. Not expecting much from him.
However if you've ever tried to catch a cornered animal who doesn't want to be caught......sometimes the fight comes out of someone who is cornered and has no other choices. Hope that happens to Moore & Kelly.
Hunter has a torn UCL in each elbow (per his girlfriend on instagram), and the pain he is in during his matches is quite noticeable, especially in his match with Illinois in the consi semis you can see in the photos provided in this article that i saw on OhioWrestling.Net. (Also a pretty cool article, whether you're a fan of the Stiebers or not)

That being said I think it is a little much to expect Hunter to score a lot of points, if any, but crazier things have happened.

I hear what you're saying, but Delgado's seeding is not because he had a bad B1G tourney. It's because the seeding process clearly states that seeds shall be solely based on this season's performance, and that previous seasons should not be considered. I'm not sure how sense this makes if applied blindly, but I understand the thinking behind it.
You do indeed. I am definitely in the camp that Logan got an absolute gift in his match with Oliver. He lost IMO. But the record book says differently, and therefore he's eligible to be the next 4 Timer, and I for one hope he gets it done (preferably in Tsirtsis like fashion! HA!). He seems like a great kid, very hard to root against him.
I will be shocked if Hunter finds his way onto the podium. Sounds like he's in some real pain, and probably sapping his strength, so I don't think the 2 weeks is going to do much for him, but maybe he'll overcome, we shall see.
