Hughes part 1 breakdown


A little lower quality than the Moore sequence, but these are the solid things Cody has to do as a starter. Against me and Mizzou he went halfway, today he pulled the trigger full out

Shot 1 is the handfight setup. Jordan will be the one taking the shot and I have no idea what he was looking for here. My best guess is he was trying to time the right hand club of Hughes and was expecting Cody's right leg to follow his hand. Cody lands with a good collar tie and Jordan starts his shot.

Shot 2 is confusing cause I can't tell which leg Jordan is after. It seems like he's halfway between a snatch single leg leading with his right hand to Cody's lead (left leg) which Cody downblocks easily, or a sweep single with his outside hand. I froze the shot here to focus on Jordans lead leg. Much like Moore's pin below, we see the tOSU wrestler end up with no where else to go after the shot is stymied. In this case we're gonna see Jordan let that knee continue going forward to the mat.

Shot 3 is a static frame but I want everyone to remember the momentup is to Cody's right. Hughes has stopped the shot and has both points of contact wider than Jordans. Hughes right knee is outside Jordans left, which will give him the base to rotate through, and since Cody is active, and on his toes, he has the power to continue driving to his right. It's at this moment that Jordan should have alarms flashing in his head but he seems cool to chill is this stance. Notice how Jordans left hand is still on Hughes leg. The net effect throws his balance in the direction the shot was moving, Cody's right. We have the recipe for a big throw. Since Jordan has no where else to go with his knee down, and since Hughes has the wider base, he has two options, explode up to reposition his feet, or get rolled into his hips. Stay tuned for part 2
