This weekend could be an interesting one for the Iowa wrestling team.

The Hawkeyes will take on No. 20 Illinois (2-3, 1-2 Big Ten) on Friday at 8 p.m. followed by a Sunday marquee against Northwestern at 2 p.m. The dual against the Illini will be on Big Ten Network, while the Hawks take on the Wildcats streaming live on Big Ten 2 Go and FloWrestling.

All the rankings here are from Intermat, which has six Hawkeye wrestlers in the top-five of their weights this week.
