Jimmy Cinnabon Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Does a new team rise to the top because they're better at pushing guys out? The obvious thought is Iowa moves up to the top. Does a team that likes to play the edge (Arizona State, NC State) fall down a few spots? Or does not much change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidwestMan Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 At the watch party I was at last weekend, all I heard was "if they'd add a push out Rule it would stop this "sh#t!" Successful teams would adapt as they have for scrambling "spaghetti" wrestling. Traditionalist will argue, but I think it would be better for the sport and prepare talent for the international level.

Guess I should have made this comment under the "Do we need a push out rule" topic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much change to the team race imo but I suspect it will force these wrestlers into much more offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it though? Wrestlers who play the edge will just circle back in bounds. And wrestlers may just try to push each other to score points rather than taking shots.

I still believe this will result in more points. Edited March 27 by Rassling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ionel Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 If we are talking about pushing Carl out of Penn St then - YES. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle26 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 This would obviously be all that Iowa needs to overtake Penn State. They would probably set a new points record at NCAAs next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
