Daton Fix, who did not appear in the initial ranking due to match number requirements, placed second at 133 pounds, giving Oklahoma State a pair of No. 2 wrestlers alongside 184-pounder Dustin Plott.

🎉 TRIVIA ANSWER

Answer: 18.

Earlier this year, the Cowboys dominated the Sooners in Norman for the 18th straight victory.

That was also the 150th all-time for OSU in the Bedlam series. The Cowboys leads the series with Oklahoma, 150-27-10, while John Smith is 57-6-3 against the Sooners as head coach.
