The top-ranked Nittany Lions defeated the No. 6 Cornhuskers 31-7. Sanderson said Penn State 'wrestled well enough' to win.

The Penn State wrestling team (8-0, 2-0 Big Ten) rolled to a 31-7 win over host Nebraska (6-2, 1-1) in its first Big Ten road dual of the season.

Nebraska broke through Penn State’s stranglehold at 133 with a surprising 14-7 win by Erie Prep grad Jacob Van Dee over Penn State’s Braeden Davis and a major decision at 149 by fourth-ranked Ridge Lovett over second-ranked Shayne Van Ness. That Lovett won wasn’t as surprising as the 10-2 score itself.

The No. 1 Penn State wrestling team rolled again Friday night, winning eight of 10 bouts in a dominant 31-7 Big Ten victory over No. 6 Nebraska. A record crowd of 6,661 at the Cornhuskers' Devaney Sports Complex caught a glimpse of the buzzsaw that is Nittany Lions wrestling this season.

Penn State made the trek to Lincoln, Nebraska, for its first Big Ten road dual of the year on Friday night. The No. 1 Nittany Lions will come back to Happy Valley as 31-7 victors over No. 7 Nebraska in a dual that showcased 10 bouts of ranked wrestlers squaring off.

Nebraska will have to be at the top of its game to hang with Penn State. Coach Mark Manning won his 300th dual meet in his 24 years at Nebraska when the Huskers defeated Minnesota last Saturday. Manning is 300-107-3 at Nebraska.
