Think we do this thread every year. Interested to see who you think will surprise this year (any team). I'm going way out there... Kasak makes the finals.
Your Darkhorse At Nationals.

A lot of the brackets don’t have real holes after the quarters. For example Caliendo can beat Ramirez but hits a brick wall with MM. Cody Chittum making it past Shapiroand Teemer? My pick is Truax beating Plott and Salazar to make the finals.
Bernie got the best draw he could have gotten to make it thru to the finals.
Little Rock with their first AA.
Vinnie Zerban UNCO beats Teemer, Franck, And Shapiro to make 157 finals. Levi wins and avenges his first loos from Nov 2022,
8-6 SV OT. Final score Levi. By major decision 14-4.

Kasak would be mine as well. This years version of Levi-
Going Truax. It's the time of year he shines.
Will Lewan, 1st wrestler in NCAA history to win all 5 matches in SV by 2-1 scores. Michigan however scores -1 team points due to the penalties of putting 5 officials to sleep.
Not sure if seeded 5th qualifies for dark horse.
If so, Dylan Ragusin Michigan.

I get the joke, but you realize he has Levi in the semis.
Some kid named Carter. Coming out if the #9th seed and the fact he went 0-2 at the Big10s, shows I'm going out on a limb.
I like Spratley to make the finals at 125 taking out Ayala and Stanich along the way.
Of course he loses to The Baby Faced Assassin in the finals.

Every person in the country is picking Carter in their fantasy draft on the cheap. Nothing to see here.
184 - TJ Stewart
Keckeisen wins comfortably, but other than him, I'm thinking this weight is going to get blown up with multiple top 8 losing early.

There is no darkhorse for team championship. It was, is and will be Penn State!
WE ARE .....
WE ARE .....
It seems like a lot of us are in on Kasak. I swear he was the better wrestler vs Lovett.
When I saw the thread I thought it would be about the Darkhorse Tavern that was on Calder. It was a long weekend.
I'm going with Kasak in the finals. Kid looked liked he's jumped lately.

Give him another year at Tanning Bed U and then he might be dark.
Ryder rogotzki pins his way to semifinals and loses there to Mr. Bernie Truax.
I was wrong. Welsh is so pale that he might need 2 more years in Columbus.
Little Rock got TWOOO AAs!
well is iowa gonna thank us for Carr winning and stealing their trophy?
Iowa wasn't getting one for 4th either. They did away with a 4th place trophy this year.
Are you a time traveler??
Yes.....that is what they said...........last year. It IS next year
