CMU is ranked way to low...for real. Have you seen who they have beat? Even when you look at their duel with Iowa...they only one two matches but against the #1 team in the country there were tons of 1 and 2 point matches! I agree with the other comment...do some review of the OKl St, Lehigh and Michigan duels that CMU won and then on top of those they just tied #4 ranked Nebraska! After watching the Neb. duel, CMU should have won that one also. CMU is NOT a 21 ranked team, they need to be in the top 10! Just my opinion.

Cornell just beat Ohio State and then seriously beat Iowa State at National Duals. And they are ranked 6th? I don't think so.

Anonymous Coward is right on this one, CM is a top 10 team.

How can Central Michigan be 21? That is just crazy. Someone needs to do some revision! CMU has crushed OKl St, Lehigh and Michigan already this season.
Im not too sure I agree with these rankings either. Power rankings based on tournament finishing does not really work for national rankings. It may work for regional rankings where teams send wrestlers to the same tournaments.. but that does not happen with many of the teams listed in these rankings. Lets see what happens at national duals.
Are you forgetting Lehigh who beat Oklahoma State, Michigan, and Maryland.....

Iowa just beat Iowa State without their starter at 197 and with a very poor performance from an out of shape Slaton at 133, how can you justify putting them ahead of the hawkeyes??

nc state sucks they lost bad to div2 newberry.these rankings are a joke
While I am at it - Your individual rankings are suspect as well - 125 and heavy for starters - Do you guys really follow collitch wrasslin? No....sorry...I forgot....you MUST have "formula" for that too right?....That was sarcasm....

Call them tournament "Power" rankings then......We are in the dual season for all intents...it is misleading
RevWrestling.com (who does these and the individual rankings) bases the team rankings on predicted tournament scoring based on their individual rankings. Here is the explanation:
