In this week’s InterMat rankings, the Huskers are ranked No. 4 in the country, one of three Big Ten teams to make the top five and five to make the top 10.
Also representing the Big Ten in the InterMat rankings is No. 1 Penn State, No. 3 Iowa, No. 6 Ohio State, No. 10 Michigan, No. 11 Minnesota, and No. 15 Rutgers.
