Can you get reversed? I guess. If the bottom guy is super strong. I could be wrong, but most of your weight would be distributed onto the mat and the guy's head, not on the opponent's body. The way the weight is distributed, you'd have to put a lot of muscle into reversing. Plus, to even take him back the other way, I'm positive you'd have to open your half guard and that would make passing even easier.
