This past week brought about more change to the updated ASICS FloRankings than probably all of the other weeks combined, with much of the action and many of the upsets going down at Cliff Keen Las Vegas (results and matches here).
11) 184: #7 Zack Zavatsky (Virginia Tech) over #2 Myles Martin (Ohio St)
We all had this one circled as a tough match for Myles. This is the embodiment of a coin-flip match going forward, though anytime an NCAA champion falls to a non-All-American you have to take notice. (Watch Match Here)10) 197: #13 Kollin Moore (Ohio State) over #8 Jake Smith (West Virginia)
I've been all about Kollin Moore this year. He continues to impress with his motor and frequent attacks. He was too much late for a very stingy Jake Smith.9) 174: UR Taylor Lujan (UNI) over #8 Zac Brunson (Illinois)
It was a matter of "when" and not "if" Lujan would beat someone very good. Lujan nearly had his moment a few weeks ago against Zach Epperly. (Watch Match Here)8) 165: #5 Logan Massa (Michigan) over #2 Isaac Jordan (Wisconsin)
This was a semi-stunner to me. Massa is a problem in all positions, but a bigger problem than I realized. (Watch Match Here)7) 165: #11 Clark Glass (Oklahoma) over #4 Chandler Rogers (Oklahoma State)
Glass is the ultimate "box of chocolates" wrestler -- you just never know. Some days he'll lose his wrestle-off, while others he'll take out No. 4 Chandler Rogers. Glass is emerging as a definite All-American contender.6) 157: #17 Joshua Shields (Arizona State) over #5 Brian Murphy (Michigan)
This was a statement win for Josh Shields, even though he didn't follow it up. Shields' pace will put him in matches, but his tactics and leg attacks will get him over the top. (Watch Match Here)5) 133: UR Corey Keener (CMU)/Anthony Tutolo (Kent State) over #5 Earl Hall (Iowa State)
Keener and Tutolo are similarly ranked guys, so it's tough to rank. They're about the same level of surprise. Hall's loss to Tutolo after having him on his back nearly the entire first period was especially stunning. (Watch Match Against Tutolo Here)4) 149: UR Cole Mendenhall (Wyoming) over #6 Solomon Chishko (Virginia Tech)
Chishko doesn't lose to guys he isn't supposed to usually. To me, this loss says "watch out for Mendenhall" more than anything. Check out this sick lateral drop by Mendenhall:3) 157: Archie Colgan (Wyoming) over #5 Brian Murphy (Michigan)
Great win for the Cowboy. I've been high on Colgan since his 2015 UWW Juniors performance. It's starting to translate to folkstyle now. (Watch Match Here)2) 157: John Van Brill (Rutgers) over #4 Max Rohskopf (NC State)
It was almost bizarre to see Rohskopf go over so easily with a half. I don't know if this was weight-related or if Van Brill is just that dude. (Watch Match Here)1) 125: UR Trey Andrews (Northern Colorado) over #4 Connor Schram (Stanford)
Andrews was a known commodity but unranked for a reason. Just this year alone, Andrews has lost to Will Bardezbain and Alec Opsal (twice). So this one is still throwing me for a bit of a loop, and that's why it's No. 1.Popular Right Now
