What's this?

Eierman is better at stopping the takedown when he lets them in. He cuts

the corner, gets his own takedown and then rides (and he is a very good on top). BA is more creative and explosive, but he gives up TDs to even lesser wrestlers but then is able to hit them with high-point moves some of the time. With better wrestlers, they just get more TDs and BA gets less high-point moves. If he could find a way to incorporate the creativity and explosiveness with better fundamental defense, I think he would win a national championship.

Disclaimer: I know nothing about wrestling, but I guess I still have some opinions.

If BA "baits" to get a better scramble position....it's a losing strategy -- wasris 02/12/2022 09:06AM

This is spot on. Especially if he wants to AA - which he can. -- 133966Hokie 02/12/2022 09:21AM
