The first big dual after Thanksgiving is a good one. Penn is solid at every weight. The Quakers are the #14 ranked dual team in the nation. They have ten returning NCAA qualifiers, nine of whom are in the lineup this season. They appear well-equipped to take on a #2 Hawkeye side whose published probable lineup is missing #1 Spencer Lee, #11 Brody Teske, #3 Real Woods, and #19 Nelson Brands.

The team score for this contest is very much up in the air. While the matches are going down live in Carver and on BTN Plus, we'll have updates right here. Refresh your page often if you aren't able to watch the action while it's happening.

*UPDATE: The drama has started before the dual as #19 Nelson Brands has been listed as the probable starter at 174 lbs instead of the combination of Drake Rhodes and Carter Martinson.

Today's dual will start at 165... the second match will include senior Nelson Brands, who is making his season debut at 174. #Hawkeyes pic.twitter.com/4bXjGvNvZJ
