Great picks. Almost exact to mine.

I don't think any of his picks are unrealistic, maybe with the exception of Grant Gambrall (who the hell really knows with that weight). I'm not certain every hawk will perform that well but they are certainly all capable of placing where predicted.

With a grand total of 0 Iowa champs, I don't think I was any kind of ridiculous. Whatever, though.

I don't think any one pick was ridiculous, but you have to admit that Iowa ending up with NINE all americans, including eight in the top 6 and seven in the top 5 is incredibly optimistic.

But that's why they are YOUR picks and not anyone else's, if it does end up going this way I would be shocked, but hats off to you for standing by your team.

What I think is really interesting is how many people are predicting Ramos to beat Long in the quarterfinal, then having Long beat Ramos in the 3rd-4th match.

Fair enough.

In an update, The Open Mat, hardly the pillar of Iowa homerism, has Iowa with 8 AAs.

**Flop The Nuts** · 03-16-2011, 06:26 PM

I admittedly don't know squat about anything, but I have Iowa with 6 and PSU with 6. Then Okie St with 5; Wiscy, Cornell, and Minny with 4. Boise St with 3.

I got 6 champs right. I can't believe I wrote down Fittery, I could have sworn I picked Bubba.
