The Nebraska wrestling program placed third in the NWCA preseason poll released earlier this week. The program earned 362 points.
They finished fifth in the final NWCA poll in 2025-26, and finished third overall in the NCAA Championships as well.
Only Oklahoma State and Penn State had more points in this year's poll. The Nittany Lions topped the country with 400 points, while the Cowboys finished with 382.
The Huskers will face a difficult start to the season, opening with 18th-ranked Wyoming. The match will take place on November 8. The opener will be one of many matches that should test the program.
This program comes into the year with high expectations, as it remains one of the country's elite programs. Mark Manning and the program will have a chance to remain among the country's elite programs.
