Individual
If I wanted to be bold, this would be the conference where I would call an upset. Unfortunately, Jonathan Green and Michael Clevenger have not been at the top of their game this season and I don't think anyone else has the fitness to defeat Tiernan. According to Twitter, Tiernan is set to make his NCAA debut this weekend which should result in him getting the title. However, the recent success from Scott Carpenter could be enough to make Tiernan work for the win.
Others like Hugh Armstrong have had some really consistent races this season and will be up towards the top of the results. Jonathan Green is also on my radar after a poor race at Paul Short and then not even running at Wisconsin. He was apparently ill according to Flotrack. Hopefully this will be the bounce back race that can put him back in the All-American conversation.

Team
The title is Georgetown's to lose. Even without the spark from Green and Clevenger, the Hoyas should be able to pull off the win. However, I'm banking on Green to make a comeback and put together a really nice performance. If he does that, then not only will Green be back in the All-American conversation, but the Hoyas will also be back in the podium talk as well.
After the Hoyas, Providence and Villanova will almost definitely finish 2nd and 3rd. Providence has had some really nice races at Notre Dame and Wisconsin this season. Don't be surprised if they make it a close race between them and Georgetown. Villanova will also be getting Tiernan back and (maybe) Wetzel. If that's the case, it won't be surprising to see the top-portion of the results filled with just three teams.
