Penn State-Michigan matchups to watch
Michigan's highest-ranked wrestler is heavyweight Taye Ghadiali, who is No. 5 in the latest InterMat rankings. Ghadiali heads to Penn State following a sudden-victory decision over Ohio State's third-ranked Nick Feldman. He'll take on Penn State's 12th-ranked Cole Mirasola, who had won seven consecutive bouts before losing to Nebraska's AJ Ferrari 2-1.
The Nittany Lions are rankings favorites in every other bout, though some could be interesting. At 141, Penn State's Braeden Davis looks to rebound from getting pinned by Nebraska's Brock Hardy last week. Davis takes on Michigan's 26th-ranked Dylan Ragusin, who has wrestled in just five dual meets this season.
Penn State's PJ Duke (157) also looks to start another win streak after losing 2-1 in the tiebreaker to Nebraska's Antrell Taylor, the defending national champion. Duke (13-1) takes on 13th-ranked Cam Catrabone.
