Dual season starts Sunday. No. 3 Nebraska wrestling hosts No. 20 Wyoming at the Devaney Center at 3 p.m. CT in a Military Appreciation dual with a camo pennant giveaway, then hits the road Friday, Nov. 13, for Oklahoma State at Gallagher-Iba Arena.
The opener
Wyoming comes in ranked in the NWCA coaches poll and, per WyoSports, expects a lineup still being ironed out after early tests. Cowboy wrestler Rojas said the schedule is tough right out of the gate, with Nebraska followed later by Stanford and a run of top-25 duals. WyoSports also noted Rojas is likely to see Nebraska’s LJ Araujo, listed among 10 ranked Huskers from a team that finished third at the 2026 NCAA Championships.
Sunday’s dual streams on Big Ten Plus. It is the first home dual of the year and the only one at the Devaney Center until Dec. 19 against Campbell.
