After carefully following the tournament this weekend it is impossible to ignore the amount of upsets, and unseeded or under seeded wrestlers becoming All Americans. It makes me wonder if only the NCAA would have asked for The Chief's counsel they would be having the same problem.

Wrestling dad needs some butt hurt medicine. Preparation H maybe.

The NCAA tries to make seeding an exact science w formulas. The every day wrestling fan could do a way better job. The ranking are actually closer to the results than the seeds are.

Well said Will, that is a good point I did not know. That explains a lot. The casual fan could probably do a lot better than these announcers as well!

This is funny. Half the reason to watch the NCAA's is because the upsets are so much fun.
