Big 12 Wrestling Touney Thread

Team scores prior to finals. Who would have predicted we would finish ahead of UNI, and by such a wide margin?

1. Oklahoma State 143.5
2 Iowa State 113.5
3 Northern Iowa 80
4 Oklahoma 74
5 Fresno State 59.5
6 Wyoming 58
7 Utah Valley 57
8 North Dakota State 53.5
9 West Virginia 46
10 South Dakota State 18.5
11 Air Force 18
12 Northern Colorado 17
 
So am I misreading it or are we at 9 qualifiers with Straw having a chance to make 10? Saw someone say 8 with a chance of 9 but not seeing who didn’t qualify.
 
Side track here a little. Noticed that Zeke Moises is wrestling for 9th in the big ten. Seems like a massive slide from his finals appearance.

He wrestled in the NCO last weekend for some reason and beat Kamali of Virginia is 1st round, but took 2 injury timeouts for a shoulder injury. Then defaulted out of the tourney. He add an allocation, so wrestling in the NCO made zero sense.
 
What impresses me, is all 8 guys that received allocations, actually place high enough to punch their tickets, no wide cards needed by them. Then the 2 remaining are at worst, the 1st spot out of the allocation spot.
 
Wrestlers who earned AQ slots, but will need to go through the at-large process:
