Starocci will get into the field but his seed will suffer due to the INJ DEFs in B1G and his limited schedule.The Kid wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 6:09 pm according to flo, a wrestler can be argued up or down if he is within three points of another by formula. That is very little. This seems to mean that a wrestler like Starrocci is going to be way out of place, which could cause problems for some poor guy if Starocci is healthy.
Head to Head (25%): should do well here, but he is 3-2 in his H2H bouts v the field, counting the two INJ DEF bouts at B1G.
Quality Wins (20%): three quality wins - listed below
Coaches' Rank (15%) = this will likely drop from #1 to anywhere between #2 and #4
Conference Finish (10%): DNP
Common Opponent (10%):
Win Pct (10%): 12-2 = 85.7%
RPI (10%): N/A
He's losing 21.43 points from the start: 10ea for Conf Finish & RPI; and 1.43 pts due to Win Pct
Also the subjective criteria offered don't help him - they may even hurt him. This goes against the "Coaches in a Room" theory.
- Bad Losses: none
- Outside top 30 Coaches or RPI: n/a
- Conference Champion: DNP
- Performance in last five matches (including conf tourney): 3-2
- Number of INJ DEF or MED FFT wins/losses: 1-2
- Best quality win: Rocco Welsh B1G 3rd
- Wrestler availability (Injured or medically unable to compete)
