Ok so that list was outdated. Thanks. I know others discussed the dislike over what OSU did but is there something to prevent it from happening normally. What’s to stop a #1 ranked wrestler from just not wrestling their conference tournament?

Just saw a tweet that we sent 10 back in 2010. That's the last time we had this many.
Going by the above list from Seton Hall Pirate,
Guys that received allocations, that went back into at large pool
125 - 5, allocations available are 4
133 - 4, allocations available are 4
141 - 4, allocations available are 4
149 - 1, allocations available are 5
157 - 6, allocations available are 4
165 - 5, allocations available are 5, this went from 4 to 5 because Rogers allocation went back
174 - 4, allocations available are 6
184 - 3, allocations available are 4
197 - 6, allocations available are 5
285 - 7, allocations available are 4

Watching big tens, Jim gibbons lays this nugget of info on us. Chad Red Jr’s dad is named Chad Red. I wouldn’t have figured that out on my own.
You have to wrestle in your conference tournament in order to advance to NCAA.
There have been injured guys who are fairly certain that they would advance, and step on the mat for a few seconds before defaulting out. That way it counts as a match and they can still be considered for at-large.
No. Unless the coaches decided to rank him (which I wouldn't expect) he won't even be eligible for consideration for an at large. You have to meet at least two of the at large criteria and he only meets one.
Looking at this, it appears that Straw is going to have to win 157 to get the berth.
Also, lucky Gremmel got his punched, lots of upsets at 285
Straw also needs to be ranked to be eligible, but I think he's got a good chance of finally sliding in there somewhere, even if it isn't very high. Unlikely to matter though since there have been so many upsets. Most likely tonight is all or nothing for him.
Doing a quick look at the guys that didn't earn an allocation at 157
Name Coaches, RPI
Barone, Ill 10,16 (Got 10th and Big 10 had 9 allocations)
Fox, Stan 27,20 (Got 3rd and Pac12 had 2 allocations)
Carson, Ohio 18,15 (Got 6th and Mac had 5 allocations)
Clarke, Amer UR,26 (Got 7th and EIWA had 6 allocations)
McClure UNC 20,11 (Got 6th (last) and ACC had 4 allocations, he actually defaulted out of tourney)
Santoro Cornell UR,25 (didn't place and EIWA got 6 allocations)
Barone will get an at large
Carson will get an at large
Fox will probably get an at large
McClure would of got one, but since he defaulted out, not sure
of these 6, Santoro and Clarke would be out. I have not looked at win %age though.

Trying to watch on the FS Go app using a friend's login but can't get any channels to work
Same here - can’t get it through my Mediacom login
If we are going to wrestle the edge, we need bigger boarder on the edge of the mat.
A bigger border would have made that Bridges throw interesting
