I think intermediate is the most sandbagged. It might be even tougher than advanced sometimes. Intermediate is where all the crazy tough college wrestlers go. They are the toughest to submit and they have crazy good control and position but don't always have the biggest arsenal of submissions which is why I think they go intermediate . and usually intermediate is more stacked because people don't wanna step up and go advanced. obviously advanced can't be sandbagged. Gary you are right on the cusp of intermediate but considering this is your first tourney there is nothing at all wrong with beginner.
There it is right from the guy you should be asking.
I was sure as to where I was going to compete, just asking in general about the goofiness of the brackes themselves. They just seem really broad.
I got ya. I just wanted to point out that you have access to nathan orchard and assuming you train at 10th p Portland then thats whos opinion I would take as gospel. Kick some ass!
GO SHARKS!

If this shit turns out to be true, I will get a tattoo of a crop duster spelling out the phrase, "Eddie was right!"
