    Knutson was hurt and opted not to wrestle the true second match. Instead he will trust the NCAA to look at his 24-8 record and his past wins over Harms to put him in the Tournament as an "at-large" pick IIRC. It means he won't be seeded and instead will get a shitty draw in the brackets.

    Are the At-Large's not seeded or just thinking that may happen?

    I think they're seeded if deemed good enough. Otherwise, with B12 getting no AQ spots and all of there guys having to get in through wild card spots, you could see a high seed get drawn to face Alex Dieringer, which would be brutal and unfair. Also:

    "On March 9, wrestlers in each weight class will receive an updated Win %, RPI and coaches’ ranking that includes all
    competition through the qualifying events." from the ncaa manual.

    Just thinking that it may hurt his seeding.
