- 2002 NCAA Quarterfinals - Cael Sanderson is now only two matches away from going a perfect 159-0 during his collegiate career at Iowa State after teching Northern Iowa's Jason Payne in the 197 lbs quarters.
I'm studying wrestling/wrestlers to better understand technique and help my two boys get better. I don't think I've ever seen an athlete or wrestler for that matter that does pretty much whatever they want to do, when they want to. Cael certainly made it look effortless.
Cael was just relentless, constantly moving and attacking and re-attacking. Awesome wrestler, the GOAT!
I love folkstyle, and i'm so proud of you Americans, what a privilege you have to have folkstyle in schools and colleges
He had this match wrapped up early and could’ve coasted the rest of the match but he kept being offensive. Today it seems guys get conservative in offense once they are up. Wrestling seemed much more exciting back then.
Bro its cael Sanderson the best ever lol hes not indicative of the style back then
@@daricklapaglia4337 I used him as the most recent example, but we can go back to Lincoln mcllravy, frank molinaro and so on.
Disagree. We see plenty of talent continue to push the action. Austin DeSanto, Spencer Lee, Carter Starochi, and others, are examples of contemporary wrestlers who push the action.
@@otto8936 I can agree with certain wrestler today, like those mentioned. Now I may be biased, but it felt like older generations as a whole pushed the pace more. Even the under dogs and guys down by 10 still attacked. Again this is coming from memory and most likely highlighted matches so I could very well be wrong. It felt way more exciting for older ncaas tourneys as a whole.
@@ATS83 I would argue that there are greater risks today when pushing the action. I said this in another comment on this post, but wrestlers are FAR better scramblers today compared to 20+ years ago. Every high quality college wrestler today is a master of funk, which means that it is riskier today to take bad shots.
Well done Iowa, total dominance
Cael's move don't even look fast or powerful yet somehow they work.
Did Cael ever surrender a take down in college? I mean if he did, it must be in the single digits.
Cormier got a td in their final match
@@PistonHonda_1987 Cormier was a beast. I think it was Damion Hahn that said during an interview that he was astonished at how physically strong Cormier was. And Hahn was no twig, he was build like a brick house as well.
The biggest difference I see between wrestling today and Cael’s era is scrambling and funk.
Notice how Cael’s opponent is oblivious to any sort of funk roll to ‘try’ and counter Cael’s offense.
Today, guys would have been rolling all over the place, grabbing ankles, diving underneath, you name it!
Guys today have so many tricks under their belts - it makes watching Cael’s era seem primitive.
There were guys during Sanderson's era who were quite funky, they just weren't able to make it work against him. Sanderson had an answer to anything and everything. Albeit, it's more prevalent now, but it wasn't non-existent back then. For example Viktor Sveda was quite funky. He liked to roll around & dive, ect. It just had zero effect on Sanderson. Also keep in mind, this is 197 lbs. There's still not a ton of funk, in comparison to the lower weights.
@@TheNotbadphonedaddy Fair, but today being funky is a prerec to success. High School wrestlers like Bo Basset are already far ahead of D1 scramblers in Cael's era.
The sport has evolved.
@@otto8936 I'm still betting on prime Cael Sanderson against any wrestler today.
