Bottom line is we'll have to beat some studs to place anyway, but I personally liked the draw over the other option it could have been.
Pill b was drawn last year, which means it had to be pill a or pill c this year.see appendix b (page 25)of this document for more description -

Thought 197 was interesting with Pill a - first round match between last year's 184 pound champ (Sand) vs. last year's 197 pound champ (Griffin). Had pill C been drawn, it would have been Sand vs. Marrs in the first round.
