Is RT guaranteed a two seed at Big10s?  I can see Dardanes getting the one but doesn't RT have to be the two going undefeated in conference?  I know he didn't wrestle Clark or Gulibon and they are ranked ahead of him at the moment by intermat, but they have conference losses.  I think it would be kind of a screw job if he didn't get the two. 

If Dardanes get beat by big10 guys at national duals will he slide to a 1 seed? Or do the conference dual meets take precedence?

When RT beats Earl Hall, it should be guaranteed.

guaranteed?  have to be?   ummm NO and NO.

The only guarantee is the coaches seeding meeting the Friday afternoon before B1Gs Saturday.

If when ;D RT wins next Sunday at Iowa State his odds improve dramatically, yes even tho I State is not in the B1G.

The only thing that takes precedence is the vote of all B1G coaches.

Does not have to be logical.
Does not have to make sense.
Does not have to be fair.
Does not have to be correct.

The only criteria is the B1G coaches vote.

Who determines the pre-seeds?  A preliminary coaches vote?

Because those do not seem to change too much as I recall...

Minnesota, Iowa and Ohio St will be trying to screw each other by voting Cory Clark or Johnny DJ or both lower or vice versa so they will vote Ryan Taylor higher. Most likely a 2.

As in politics?  Nope, never happens in wrestling.
