Below you will find the top five Behind The Dirt episodes of the 2018-2019 NCAA wrestling season, according to page views. Keep in mind that this only takes into account breakdowns of techniques that were done in NCAA competition, not high school. 

1. Suriano's Single To Double

After taking a few eyebrow-raising losses over the course of the regular season, eventual NCAA champion Nick Suriano made a very clear statement in the Big Ten quarterfinals against NCAA finalist Ethan Lizak. Suriano changed directions three times on this single to double technique to score six. 

2. Daton's Hip Heist

Daton Fix's college career officially began this October. With a stellar high school career, a blemish-less redshirt season, and a Final X appearance, to say that the Okie State freshman's NCAA career was "highly anticipated" doesn't do the feeling justice. But before the Cowboy standout would make the NCAA finals, he would have to go through his first test of the season, Minnesota's Ethan Lizak. Lizak, known as one of the best top wrestlers in the country, almost had Daton turned when Fix switched his hips and got a reversal. Check it out below. 

3. Mikey Labriola's Elbow Pass Shuck

Mikey Labs is so slick. Check out this simple counter to an elbow pass that the Cornhusker hit in a dual meet against Wyoming. 

4. Joe Smith Scramble Backhand

Ok, this one looks like it defies logic and most laws of physics. 

5. RBY's Backflip

Penn State freshman All-American Roman Bravo-Young made a big splash against Lehigh this season when he hit a backflip to defend a single leg.
