STILLWATER – Head coach David Taylor and the Oklahoma State wrestling program revealed the Cowboys’ dual schedule for the 2025-26 season Wednesday, with seven home duals – including Oklahoma and Iowa – and the National Duals Invitational sponsored by Paycom highlighting the schedule.
The schedule also features seven Big 12 duals and six non-conference matchups, with the Cowboys facing 11 repeat opponents from last season. Nebraska and Stanford are the lone additions to this year’s schedule.
The Cowboys open the season November 7 with a home contest against Stanford. The two have met three times in the past four seasons, with OSU winning each and outscoring the Cardinal 95-16 in those matchups.
Coach Taylor’s squad then heads to the inaugural National Duals Invitational sponsored by Paycom in Tulsa November 15-16. The tournament includes some of the country’s toughest opponents, including Arizona State, Cornell, Illinois, Iowa, Lehigh, Little Rock, Michigan, Missouri, Minnesota, NC State, Nebraska, Northern Iowa, Ohio State, Virginia Tech, and Wyoming.
Oklahoma State closes the month of November with a pair of road duals at Air Force and Arizona State on November 21 and 23, respectively.
The Cowboys continue on the road into December, facing West Virginia on the 14th and Nebraska one week later on the 21st. OSU has never lost in its 18 meetings against the Mountaineers, and holds a 51-4-1 advantage over the Cornhuskers in the all-time series.
Oklahoma State returns home on January 11 for the 190th Bedlam meeting against Oklahoma before heading back on the road to face Missouri on January 23.
The next four duals are wrestled inside Gallagher-Iba Arena against Utah Valley, Northern Iowa, Iowa State, and Little Rock. OSU holds a combined all-time advantage of 101-49-5 over those four foes.
The Cowboys then head out east to face Virginia Tech on February 15 before rounding out their 2025-26 regular season slate at home against the Iowa Hawkeyes.
