Based on the comments you have made to some of our threads, you obviously have a great grasp of Kansas high school wrestling.

Let's have a little fun with this! The SEK Invitational is coming up this weekend, with 16 Kansas teams, including your son's team. You have seen a few of these over the years.

How about by Friday night, each of us post our picks for the top 4 placers at each weight class? The one with the most correct picks wins (pick must finish in correct place: 1, 2, 3, 4).

If you win, we will not make any more posts on this forum this season. If we win, you will not make any more negative responses to any of our posts.

What do you say? Game on?

I suggest we both send our completed picks to Mike Juby and he can in turn post them to the forums for us.

Great idea. Let's do that and he can post the picks in this thread as soon as both sets are turned in.

I might have to start paying more attention to the forums again! This is starting to seem fun like when we was younger

I am at a slight disadvantage, as any close match I will definitely have to take my dogs. With that being said, some real research will have to be done on their part, instead of just having the computer spit out predictions. I'd like to see Chiefs predictions posted as well after the original have been submitted. Just for Fun!

I don't think they bracket the tournament until after weigh in. Trackwrestling does this to eliminate byes

Okay - Since neither of us knows what side of the bracket the kids will be on, it will be nearly impossible to pick the top 4 in order (top 2 could be on same side of bracket).

Maybe we can seed each of the kids in the tournament by weight? When we have the results, we will count a point each time our higher seed wins a match. Whoever has the highest number of points for the full tournament wins.

If that is too much work for you, we could pick a few weight classes (you pick how many and which ones), rather than the entire tournament.

Alternatively, we could just email our top 4 In order Saturday morning as soon as the brackets are posted but before the tournament begins. Either way works for me, or I am open to your ideas.

What do you think?

One & four seed on top ...two & three seed on bottom
