Game Primer and LIVE Blog: Kansas Basketball at Oklahoma
In this story:
The Kansas Jayhawks have struggled on the road this season, with some of their hardest games still coming up against Baylor and Houston. That late schedule makes today's game against the Oklahoma Sooners even more important if Kansas wants to avoid an abysmal season on the road.
Kansas fell in the polls this week, and will likely drop again after losing by a huge margin at Texas Tech on Big Monday. Oklahoma was able to hold on to a spot in the polls after a 1-1 week that included a 17-point loss at Baylor.
The Jayhawks lead the all-time series 156-69, including a 23-20 mark in the Lloyd Noble Center. The series has been extremely lopsided, with Kansas winning the last six meetings and 9 of the last 10.
