I'm not a betting man but I also recognize that smart people don't spend dumb money (on average). I take betting odds as crowdsourcing in a way. So for what it is worth. A negative number connotes favorite. A lower positive number connotes a favorite over a higher positive number:

Team:

PSU -6000
OSU +1000
IA +1500
NE +2200

125: LL at +140, Ramos at +330, Figs at +360. Spratley is at +950 (6th)

141: Tagen is +1500 (8th)

149: Teague is +10000

157: Fish is +2000 (13th)

165 was not published

174: KOT at +110, Haines at +125, Dean at +450, Pinto at +1000

184: CStar at -300, Keck at +160, Plott at +800, McEnelly at +800

197 was not published

Heavy: GS at -700, Kerk at +425, Wyatt at +450, Trephan at +1200


Starting in reverse, Gable is THE prohibitive favorite, although I can't see 165. Kerk and Wyatt are virtually tied. At 174, KOT and Levi are neck and neck with Dean being the clear 3rd. At 184, CStar is the clear favorite with Plott and McEnelly being tied for 3rd. Spratley should AA around 5th/6th, and Tagen should take 8th.

Without being able to see 165 (Amine) and 197 (Surber), the odds favor 5 AAs plus whatever is in store at those two weights. Three 3rds, a 6th, and an 8th. Decent chance to have two finalists.

All with a grain of salt, but not too far off my thoughts.

Vegas doesn’t build those nice buildings because they’re wrong a lot…

Both Amine and Surber come in 10th on the betting lines. i still think Surber becomes an AA. MM is -600 so second highest prohibitive favorite. AJ is the favorite at 197 (+125) but both Buchanan and Cardenas are close behind. Barr distant 4th.

Barr could bust my 97 bracket if he’s healthy. He was my finals pick prior to that with AJ in the semifinals not taking the young pup as seriously as he should.

What is Beard? May throw a little that way.
 
Beard is in the 5 slot at +900. I don’t know any more than you do about Barr but he was seen grocery shopping by several forum members over the weekend and looked completely fine. Who knows.

Yeah, he’s not healthy!

Unless he was buying low sodium steak seasoning?

Barr doesn’t grocery shop, he is a straight carnivore.
