Dual of the Year, possibly? Oklahoma State and Iowa State
Preseason most people, myself included, had Oklahoma State and Missouri as 1A and 1B in the Big 12 conference. It really felt like they were the teams to beat and there weren't many in the conference that could keep up with the firepower on their rosters. Then quietly Missouri has taken several losses, while Iowa State has emerged as a strong #2 behind Oklahoma State only falling to the #1 team in the country at the time, Iowa.
Suddenly, this weekend in Stillwater is the biggest dual of the season for the Cowboys and Iowa State is a legitimate threat to win the Big 12 title. Factoring in it's unlikely we see AJ Ferrari here; you could make a strong argument that Iowa State is the favorite here. Should be a very exciting Sunday in Stillwater.
Sneaky good one: Missouri vs. Wyoming
I don't think either of these teams have been quite what they hoped going into the season, and injuries have impacted that a bit, but with the rosters they rolled out last weekend, this could be a really close one that could go either way. With all their top guys competing (I have no idea which one we'll see here) it's a lot of really high-level matchups at 133, 157, 174, 184, 197, HWT. I think this is one that's a little under the radar this week and could be really interesting.
