Whether the winter blues are setting in, things are a little slower during the holiday season or you’re looking to fill a void after John Cena’s retirement from professional wrestling, we have the perfect pick-me-up – the 2025 Journeymen Collegiate Wrestling Duals.

Tune in Dec. 20-21 to watch nine elite teams in action across nine duals, live from the Montgomery Bell Academy in Nashville, Tennessee.

Six of the programs were ranked in the top 10 of the latest FloWrestling 2025-2026 NCAA Division I Wrestling Rankings, including new No. 1 Ohio State and No. 3 Penn State. This is the first time since November 2021 that PSU is not the top team on the list. In fact, after dropping to No. 2 on Dec. 8, PSU has fallen another spot this week.

For wrestling fans in the United States, the entire event will broadcast live on FloWrestling and the FloSports app, beginning at 2 p.m. Eastern/1 p.m. CST on Dec. 20. See the complete schedule below.

Despite being the four-time defending national champion and the most dominant collegiate wresting program of the last 15 years, Penn State has not spent as much time in the national spotlight this season as other teams.

Though there won’t be a No. 1 vs. No. 3 showdown at the 2025 Journeymen Collegiate Duals, at least the Nittany Lions and Ohio State Buckeyes will be under the same roof, and that’s a win for fans who love to see the best in action.

Penn State will hit the mats at the Montgomery Bell Academy on Dec. 20 to face No. 44 North Dakota State and No. 8 Stanford, while OSU headlines the action Dec. 21, taking on No. 14 Arkansas-Little Rock and No. 4 Iowa State.

Even though they won’t be wrestling on the same day, is there any reason to believe Penn State and Ohio State won’t be in the venue together for introductions and to get a closer look at each other before facing off Feb. 13 in Pennsylvania as a prelude to the 2026 Big Ten Wrestling Championships in March?

There will limited opportunities to see the best college wrestlers do their thing before the new year, so don’t miss the 2025 Collegiate Duals.
