STILLWATER, Okla. - Oklahoma State's fifth-ranked wrestling team will look to rebound from a tough 20-14 loss to top-ranked Iowa when the Pokes visit seventh-ranked Nebraska at 2 p.m. on Sunday.
The Cowboys fell to 9-4-1 on the season and stand 1-1-1 in Big 12 action. Nebraska is 7-3-1 on the season after falling to the Sooners on Friday night.
OSU already owns a 28-14 win over the huskers at the National Duals in the consolation semifinals. The Cowboys hold a 39-2-1 lead in the all-time series.
At 197 pounds, OSU's Mark Mu-oz and Nebraska's Brad Vering square off for the sixth time. Mu-oz won the meeting earlier this season, 3-2, and leads the all-time series 3-2.
Mu-oz will then head to East Lansing, Mich., after Sunday's dual to wrestle in the NWCA All-Star Dual against top-ranked 197-pounder Nich Muzashvilli.
No. 7 Daniel Cormier and Nebraska's fifth-ranked Charles McTorry will go head-to-head for the first time at 184 pounds.
