Nobody is picking Nickerson to win it? No respect!

Big -
I just think Nickerson has had too much of a injury riddled year, with a really hard second year of college to boot, to be focused enough to get through this meat grinder of a tournament. Getting "caught", and yeah it was just a catch, is indicitive of somebody whose 'form' (as the highest level international wrestlers call it) is not where it should be.
FWIW, I think Nickerson at 100%, peaked, and ready to go, is the best in the field.

I like the Jensens picks so far...very solid...i see Stith finishing between 3-6 this year. ISU fan has all the usual suspects and certainly knows his stuff but I don't see Valenti finishing 5th. He's just too damn tough. I would give you my picks but I am getting tired...Maybe top 3 later... I am a huge Reiter fan and I have Reiter knocking off Valenti in the quarters. I also have a feeling that Coleman Scott will get him again in the consolation semis... I do kinda second guess myself about how low I have Valenti finishing... Does anyone think Backes will get revenge on Flaggert and Askren in the second round and quarters? Thats how I picked it, we will see what happens...

Couple things.
I will calculate 6 different things. 1. Old style scoring(for prizes) 2. New style scoring 3. Most AAs 4. Most AAs correct position 5. Most champs 6. Most finalists
Picks are updated daily manually. The last update was around 11pm est last night. If a confirmation page came up I got the picks.

So, why did McKnight transfer to Penn State again?
AHA, so you think Galloway will go farther than top 12. I read ya......

I've actually got Galloway losing to Fay in the round before the round of 12, but if things go the way I think they will Galloway could very easily slide into an AA spot. Fay is a winnable match, and then if he beat Fay and things again went the way I think they will he'd get Oliver in the round of 12, another winnable match. We'll just have to see.

Nobody is picking Nickerson to win it? No respect! Brother Big, I did. I think he is finished losing for this year. I also picked Deonte Penn to beat Hendricks. After watching the Big12's, I think Jonny is ripe for a throw to a fall. You heard it here first. The rest of my picks were pretty standard, although at heavy I have Ty Watterson placing high, and freshmen Zabrisky and Wade Saur (who wrestled for my HS coach) to AA. Man, I wish I had ESPNU!

I got 50 of 80 AA's. I'll leave it to Lies to tally up the points, as I'm almost positive I'm no where near the lead.

The results are in.... predictions.garrettwrestling.com/pickemsresults.htmMake sure you note that after consulting with the commissioner that DingoBrigade has been disqualified for claiming this game is "silly." Sorry, Dingo, but why should you get prizes from a silly game.
