Wrestling: Huskers to Host Fighting Illini

The No. 8-ranked Huskers will look to bounce back after a pair of losses to No. 3 Michigan and No. 1 Penn State. Nebraska will host Illinois this Sunday at the Devaney Center.

The Huskers are 5-4 on the year and 2-4 in the Big Ten, while Illinois is 3-6 in duals on the year, including a 1-6 mark in the conference. Illinois started its conference slate with losses to five ranked teams in a row in Rutgers, Iowa, Purdue, Northwestern and Minnesota. The Illini then downed Indiana 36-3 before falling to No.
