One of the biggest dual wins in Rutgers wrestling history took place during the 2015-16 season when the Scarlet Knights hosted No. 4 Nebraska at the RAC. The Cornhuskers entered the match on a 16-dual winning streak, while RU was in search of a signature victory within the Big Ten Conference after it joined the league a year prior.
With the dual favoring Nebraska, 16-13, RU needed its heavyweight to deliver in the final bout of the night. Billy Smith rose to the occasion, as the No. 6-ranked 285-pounder defeated No. 13 Collin Jensen, 8-2. The point differential in Smith's match gave Rutgers enough to score the criteria point over the Cornhuskers for the 17-16 final.
