If you know anything about stock up, that’s a good look for our guys who now have wins over those guys (who were kicking ass)

Yup, all No. 1 ranked except for 133 and 184,

Ben Askren has the same picks with exception of 157. He’s taking Antrell Taylor there.

Shapiro is ranked 2nd at 157. Almost went Larkin, but he seems to be a bit inconsistent
 
Seidel could win it too honestly. He had Forrest dead to rights in the dual and it took a 7 point move for Jax to win
If the bracket shakes at correctly and the stars align, Lakin stepping on the mat Saturday night at 147 pounds would be trouble for anyone. He's just so sucked down at 133, Friday morning off the scale should be interesting for him. And a lot of other guys too.
 
Most comfortable to least and my 2nd choice
165 - Messenbrink (Lockett, Blaze)
174 - Haines (Ruiz)
141 - Mendez (Vega, Stanich)
125 - Lilledahl (Bouzakis)
Hwt - Yonger (Trumble)
197 - Barr (Elam)
149 - SVN (Joy)
133 - Blaze (Seidel, Forrest, Davino, Byrd)
157 - Shapiro (Larkin, Duke, Robideau)
184 - Welsh (Sinclair, Ferrari, McEnelly)
 
End of the regular season picks - not my final picks just yet
125 - Bouzakis
133 - Seidel

149 - Van Ness

165 - Mesenbrink
