You know the drill by now. There are plenty more than 10 ranked vs ranked D1 matches live on FloWrestling this weekend, but these are my favorites for one reason or another. Hopefully they all go down and more than live up to the hype!

#3 Sebastian Rivera (Northwestern) vs #9 Sammy Alvarez (Rutgers)

Date: Feb. 14 | Time: 7 PM ET | Where: Piscataway, NJ

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

To be completely honest with you, this is wishful thinking. I have no intel to think Sebastian Rivera is coming back, but wouldn't it be perfect for him to return to the mat in his home state inside the RAC against Sammy Alvarez?

The last time we saw Sebastian Rivera on the mat.

#9 Lucas Davison (Northwestern) vs #17 Jordan Pagano (Rutgers)

Date: Feb. 14 | Time: 7 PM ET | Where: Piscataway, NJ

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

It might have been a loss, but I was still impressed with Lucas Davison scoring multiple takedowns on #1 Kollin Moore. Jordan Pagano is coming off a top win over then #8 Ethan Laird. This one will be very important for the Big Ten Championships seeding. 

#19 Mosha Schwartz (Northern Colorado) vs #12 Taylor LaMont (Utah Valley)

Date: Feb. 14 | Time: 9 PM ET | Where: Orem, UT

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

Two of LaMont's last three wins have come over the previously higher ranked Cam Sykora and Montorie Bridges. He'll look to add another ranked win to his resume when he takes on Mosha Schwartz who has been great in his own right this season. The true freshman is 19-7 on the year and a win over LaMont would be the biggest of his young career. 

Watch Mosha Schwarzt give All-American Montorie Bridges all he can handle.

#15 Dalton Robertson (Northern Colorado) vs #7 Tate Orndorff (Utah Valley)

Date: Feb. 14 | Time: 9 PM ET | Where: Orem, UT

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

After suffering an injury in the Southern Scuffle finals, Dalton Robertson returned to the lineup last week and went right back to his winning ways. Friday night, he'll face the toughest test of his season against #7 Tate Orndorff who owns wins over #6 Tanner Hall, #8 Jordan Wood, #11 Josh Hokit, #12 Gannon Gremmel, #13 Carter Isley, and #22 Brandon Metz. 

#3 Shane Griffith (Stanford) vs #12 Andrew Fogarty (NDSU)

Date: Feb. 15 | Time: 2 PM ET | Where: Fargo, ND

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

Did you know that Shane Griffith is undefeated? The Stanford hammer is quietly having a fantastic season, just like he did last year in redshirt, and could be in the conversation for the top seed in Minneapolis depending on what happens at the Big Ten Championships. On the side of the mat, Andrew Fogarty has fallen just twice this season and will be looking to pull the upset to help improve his seeding for the NCAA Championships.

#12 Jay Schwarm (UNI) vs #8 Alex Mackall (Iowa State)

Date: Feb. 16 | Time: 3 PM ET | Where: Ames, IA

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

These two are no strangers to each other having met three times over their careers and all three matches couldn't have gone differently. In West Gym last year Schwarm won 6-3, at the Big 12 Championship Mackall won 8-5, and earlier this season Mackall won by tech fall. No matter the score, Schwarm always has a punchers chance as 12 of his 15 wins this season have come by fall. 

Check out their match from the 2019 Big 12 Championship.

#11 Max Thomsen (UNI) vs #8 Jarrett Degen (Iowa State)

Date: Feb. 16 | Time: 3 PM ET | Where: Ames, IA

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

Earlier this week on FloWrestling Radio Live, myself, Mark Bader, and Ben Askren learned that Max Thomsen is 5-0 all-time against Jarrett Degen. We knew that they had met a handful of times throughout their careers, but didn't realize how onesided the rivalry had been. Will the sixth time be the charm for the Cyclone All-American?

#13 Carter Isley (UNI) vs #12 Gannon Gremmel (Iowa State)

Date: Feb. 16 | Time: 3 PM ET | Where: Ames, IA

Broadcast Info: WATCH LIVE HERE

A year ago, Carter Isley sent West Gym into a frenzy when he knocked off Gannon Gremmel to put an exclamation point on UNI's win over Iowa State. Can Gremmel return the favor in Ames on Sunday afternoon?

#3 Shane Griffith (Stanford) vs #25 Tanner Cook (SDSU)

You know if you're appearing in this article twice you've got a tough weekend ahead of you. A little over 24 hours after taking on #12 Andrew Fogarty, the undefeated Griffith will square off the pinning machine that is Tanner Cook. The freshman Jackrabbit is 17-3 on the year and 12 of those wins have come by fall. Can Cook add Griffith to that list?

Watch Tanner Cook pin then #25 Nick Kiussis.

#24 Tyshawn Williams (SIUE) vs #14 Graham Rooks (Indiana)

Four of Graham Rooks last five wins have come against wrestlers ranked ahead of him at the time he beat them. Tyshawn Williams is coming off a near-upset of Brock Mauller earlier this week. Can Williams complete the upset Sunday of the red hot Rooks?
