when i was filling out my brackets, i thought long and hard about the parks vs ness match. I might have pulled a homer pick but i am hoping ness can pull a big move and get the upset!

He almost did that in the dual! The quarters are going to be tough with all teams having tough match-ups (as to be expected). With so many upsets so far I don't expect things to go as planned. Ok St and Cornell have some very tough guys but not enough of them to really be in the running (barring a collapse of PSU-Minn-Iowa). But any of the latter 3 could still win if they get (or stay) hot. Minnesota has really done a good job so far! These quarters are critical because they guarantee AA. With so many upsets there are a lot of dangerous guys in the consy's and a quarterfinal loss could translate to no AA.

I think little Dardanes beating Steiber is more likely than Ness beating Parks. After all, Ness started the last match against Parks with a 5 point move and couldn't hang on to beat him.

In likelihood, I've got it: Sanders, Nelson, Storely, CD, Ness, Yohn, ND, Steinhaus

I love Steinhaus to death, and feel he can beat anyone in that bracket EXCEPT Bosak. Bosak just seems to own Steinhaus. I hope Steiny proves me wrong!

Yes, I know. Ever since I saw the movie about Ohio wrestlers parents holding them back for no reason just so that they were older and stronger than their "peers" it gave me a bad taste in my mouth about the Steibers. How old are those "freshmen"! DC
