[dad 2 5]

Badgers look to be in solid position! I assume TJ and JJ just did have enough matches to be considered?

[Huckfinn]

285 1. Connor Medbery Wisconsin Big Ten
285 2. Ty Walz Virginia Tech ACC
285 3. Tanner Hall Arizona St. Pac 12
285 4. Austin Schafer Oklahoma St. Big 12
285 5. Jacob Kasper Duke ACC
285 6. Denzel Dejournette Appalachian St. SoCon

Where are Kyle Snyder and Nick Nevills?

Why is Kasper behind 3  guys he beat handily?

screwy

[Wisconsin Wrestling Fan]

I see Massa is sixth at 165 as well.

The reason Snyder is not listed is because he is under 17 matches; must be the same reason for Nevills.

[Huckfinn]

I see Massa is sith at 165 as well.

ya, I saw that.   Chandler Rodgers got pinned last weekend by Mathews at Edinboro.  He's 3rd.

They are using some mathematical formula that does a poor job of evaluating accomplishments.

[Musky Hunter]

Thanks for sharing this kind of "stuff". 

GO BADGERS

[Micah]

These aren't rankings, guessing this is just a list of guys that earned qualifiers.  All the PSU guys are missing, probably because they missed a tournament.  Oddly Mark Hall is listed, guessing because he won the scuffle???

[badgerjohn]

What is RPI?
Rating Percentage Index. Basically, it is strength of schedule. The NCAA multiples your win percentage, your opponents' win percentage, and your opponents' opponents' win percentage, to reach a pure math factor. The higher the factor, the better off you are, because only the Top 33 receive an RPI rank.

Oh by the way - you must have wrestled a minimum of 17 D1 matches in your particular weight class, too. You cannot wrestle 2 matches, win both, and bring a 100% win percentage to the table. However, the 17 match cutoff does not apply to your opponents, nor your opponents' opponents. That is, you don't get penalized for wrestling guys whose season was cut short by injury, or otherwise weren't able to wrestle 17 D1 matches. So we've got that going for us, which is nice.

[Huckfinn]

Basically, it is strength of schedule. 

Based on the rest of your explanation (thanks)  I'd call it a computer ranking.

If I had to describe it in one word it would be "infuriating" because it spits out so many anomalies.   It's not possible to objectively weight a win just based on records.   Open tournament wins, wins in different conferences, have different meaning.
