The #6 UNI Panthers are back on the mat on Friday January 24th at 7 pm in Cedar Falls Iowa, against #3 Oklahoma State in what should be an outstanding meet. The dual features 20 ranked wrestlers and 10 ranked head to head bouts. With two top 10 match-ups!
Don’t Miss: Great matches are predicted up and down this card! The 141 bout should be very exciting and at 184 we have a rematch of last year’s NCAA finals. 197 will also feature a closely contested match. The dual features 10 wrestlers ranked in the top 10 in the country!
Keys To Victory: The UNI Panthers are favored in just 2 of the 10 bouts, while Oklahoma State is favored in the remaining 8. Rankings aside, several of these bouts are complete tossups and many others will be closely contested. It will be important for both teams to not give up any bonus points.
