a) "A performance dominant over team B...."
b) "A dominant performance over team B...."
c) "A performance over team B...."
a) and b) sound okay to me, but not c). Does it mean that "dominant" goes together with "over", in the same way that "superior" and "comparable" (to name a few examples) go together with "to", such that the following are standard English:
"A defense superior to team B's ...."
"A superior defense to team B's ...."
"A defense comparable to team B's ...."
"A comparable defense to team B's ...."
