Michigan is back, Penn State is looking for matches, and the No. 1 Iowa Hawkeyes are out because of COVID-19. Out West, the Arizona State Sun Devils have a big weekend ahead with top-20 duals against Northern Iowa and Iowa State.
With limited duals remaining in the season, this weekend is key for teams to fine-tune their athletes and prime their lineups for championship season in March.
Here are some of the big questions we have as the dual season nears the finish line.

As you might recall. Last weekend UNI came to Ames to wrestle Missouri, but not Iowa State. Well this weekend Iowa State goes to Cedar Falls to wrestle Oklahoma, but not UNI. Like strangers in the night, the teams keep passing close to each other without ever actually crossing paths.
Despite the weird circumstances, Iowa State will have a job to do in Cedar Falls on Sunday. They’re coming off a 7-31 whooping by Missouri a week ago and need to use this meet against Oklahoma to prove that last weekend was just a combination of mat rust and young guys seeing their first varsity D1 action.
