How to watch Saturday's Missouri Tigers vs. Iowa State Cyclones dual: Start time, event preview, more
Two-time NCAA Division I National Champion Keegan O'Toole returns to lead Tigers on Senior Day, live on UFC FIGHT PASS.
The University of Missouri Tigers and the defending Big 12 champion Iowa State University Cyclones each conclude their regular season schedules on Saturday in a highly anticipated NCAA Division I Wrestling dual, and a familiar face will return to the lineup for the home team.
Two-time National Champion Keegan O'Toole, who hasn't competed since December 22, will be back in the lineup for the Tigers in the final home appearance of his storied career at Missouri, he recently announced.
The timing is perfect, with the Tigers celebrating Senior Day and Keegan O'Toole Bobblehead Day, and the four-time All-American will try and fuel his time to victory in the CFFC Match Day, which streams live on UFC FIGHT PASS at 1 p.m. ET (12 p.m. CT local time) from Hearnes Center on the University of Missouri campus.
O'Toole also seeks to earn his 100th career win on the day, entering the dual with an incredible 99-4 record during his time at Missouri.
The Tigers make their fourth CFFC Match Day appearance of the season, having previously come up short against emerging power Northern Iowa in a special November event at O'Toole's high school alma mater in Hartland, Wisconsin, before the team delivered two wins in five days as part of January's "Match Week" series with victories over Arizona State and West Virginia.
Head Coach Brian Smith has been forced to juggle his lineup throughout the season as his squad dealt with multiple injuries along the way, but with several starters returning in recent duals, he'll be hoping to build momentum heading into the Big 12 Championship on March 8 in Oklahoma.
Meanwhile, Iowa State returns to CFFC Match Day for the first time this season following two impressive performances last year. As always, the Cyclones are loaded with talent, featuring ranked athletes in eight divisions and currently sitting at No. 12 in the latest National Wrestling Coaches Association Poll.
