Kansas vs. Oklahoma State In-Season Trends
One of the best things about the Big 12 is the double round-robin, so all of these teams have played each other once to date.
Kansas won the first meeting at Allen Fieldhouse for its fourth straight win over the Cowboys, but it was more survival than dominance. The Jayhawks escaped with a two-point win, a rare close game in this series.
Over the past 11 meetings, eight have been decided by double digits, and the Jayhawks have won 10 of them.
Stillwater Magic
That said, Oklahoma State is hard to beat in Stillwater.
The Cowboys own a 6-1 league record at Gallagher-Iba Arena, with Texas being the only visitor to escape with a win. Oklahoma State comes in having won five straight and seven of eight, putting the Cowboys on the right side of the bubble as the season dwindles.
The Jayhawks on the Road
When Kansas goes on the road in the Big 12, points usually don’t follow. The Jayhawks have played to the UNDER in four of their past five games away from Lawrence, including a 78-55 win over Oklahoma in their most recent game.
That fits well with Oklahoma State’s defense, but not its offense.
The Cowboys have played to the OVER in five of their past six games, and the exception happened because they held Iowa State to 35% shooting from the field. Both teams hold their opponents under 40% from the floor, which could make points hard to come by in Stillwater.
