Don’t need Riding Time with 3 pt TD

[Dark Energy]

Hi - get TD near end of period and ride out - 3 points!  Good riders rejoice!!  Now get three points instead of 2!!
 

Riding time incents and justifies stall rides.  Is a ref going to call stalling on a guy just riding when clock is getting close to 1 minute?  Nah.

Personally I want the ref subjective calls out of wrestling as much as possible.  If only get riding time point for a turn then don't worry about top position just call stalemate when needed.  It is also why I don't want to see a 3pt nf or expanding video review.  Think of all the bricks questioning whether 2, 3, or 4 swipe and then opening review up for other stuff not originally questioned.  Or maybe we can just get an AI ref?

Not true...this is just poor refereeing.

Define your terms. The NCAA defined their terms earlier this year, and it seems to contradict what I assume you are talking about. But then the issue may be me.

If they change the rules, simply riding will be stalling.  RT point incentivizes and rewards this kind of ride - a stall ride.

Can the guy on top really stall unless the guy on bottom is as well?
