February 03, 2026 | Cowboy Wrestling
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State's wrestling dual against No. 8 Iowa on February 22 at Gallagher-Iba Arena will be nationally televised on ESPN and start at 5 p.m.
The dual was originally set to air on ESPN2.
The Cowboys are now set to compete in front of a national audience for the second time this season, after defeating No. 5 Nebraska, 22-12, on the Big Ten Network. This marks three consecutive seasons in which Oklahoma State will have multiple nationally televised duals.
OSU leads the all-time series with the Hawkeyes, 29-28-2, in a rivalry that dates to 1954. Oklahoma State and Iowa are the two most successful programs in college wrestling history, combining for 58 NCAA championships and 231 individual national champions. Those 58 team titles account for more than half of the championships awarded by the NCAA, and the programs hold the top two spots in all-time NCAA team titles, individual champions and All-Americans lists.
