Penn State Wrestling opens its 2025–26 season with a blockbuster dual meet vs Oklahoma inside the Bryce Jordan Center. Host Zach Seyko is joined by Jeff Byers, the voice of Penn State Wrestling, to break down every matchup, key storylines, and predictions.

From P.J. Duke’s highly anticipated debut to Marcus Blaze stepping in at 133 and Connor Mirasola filling in for Josh Barr, the Nittany Lions are loaded with talent — again. Can Oklahoma’s transfer-heavy roster test the defending national champions? Or will Penn State’s dynasty roll on to another dominant start?
