ARMY PREVIEW:
-Indiana and Army will face off on Saturday for the first time since 1930. Indiana defeated Army, 26-6, on Jan. 18, 1930 in their only dual meeting.
-Both teams are ranked as Indiana is No. 24 and Army is No. 27 in the latest dual rankings.
-Army has five ranked wrestlers. There are potential ranked matchups at 141, 157 and 197 lbs.
-The Black Knights are 0-2 so far this season with losses to No. 2 Nebraska and No. 27 Wisconsin.
-They also had four champions at the Princeton Open, three flight winners at the Journeymen Collegiate Classic and hosted tournaments in back-to-back weekends. They had a total of four champions in their home tournaments.
RANKINGS REFRESH:
-Across the latest national rankings, Indiana has seven Hoosier wrestlers ranked in the top-33 at their weight class.
-This matches the most ranked wrestlers Indiana had at any point in last season's campaign, too.
-Indiana's ranked wrestlers include No. 14 Jacob Moran (125), No. 23 Henry Porter (141), No. 33 Bryce Lowery (157), No. 23 Tyler Lillard (165), No. 30 Derek Gilcher (174), No. 14 Sam Goin (184) and No. 13 Gabe Sollars (197).

-As a team, Indiana ranks No. 24 with the best dual lineup according to InterMat.
HIGH-LEVEL NON-CON:
-The Big Ten Conference always provides high level competition in Indiana's dual schedule, but the Hoosiers have their toughest non-conference dual schedule in years on deck.

-As it currently stands in the latest InterMat rankings, Indiana traveled to No. 15 Oklahoma (Nov. 23) to No. 22 Little Rock (Dec. 7) and will host No. 27 Army (Dec. 13).
-As a result to the stronger dual schedule, Indiana will wrestle in fewer tournaments on their main schedule.
