If you want to beat the guys at your belt level you need to be better than them in some areas. You could try to get better at sweeping or passing than they are at sweeping & passing, but that going to be difficult because they are working on those skills 3 to 5 times a week in class. Luckily, they are ignoring their standup games some simple drilling of the right moves will give you a huge advantage.
