Forecasting Big 10 Seeds (After January 19 version)

[regularfan]

Thought I would do a second release of a potential "forecast" of Big 10 seeds. In these, I tried to take my own opinion out of this so they are ranked using head to head as a primary criteria and wrestlestat ranking as the second criteria.

If somebody is undefeated in conference but ranked behind somebody who has losses, they probably have not wrestled anybody "forecasted" above them (see Brooks, Nevills who obviously have room to improve with proper results)
