Oklahoma owns lopsided history with Kansas State

Third-ranked Oklahoma is looking to avoid another disaster against Kansas State this year.

The Sooners take on KSU on Saturday to kick off conference play, hoping to avoid the same result as last year; a Wildcat win.

Despite a 2019 win from Kansas State, the series history doesn’t dare well for the Wildcats.

The Sooners are on the winning end of a lopsided series with the Wildcats, holding 76 wins over the head of KSU’s 20. The series includes four ties.

OU had beaten Kansas State four straight times before the Wildcats took down No. 5 Oklahoma 48-41 in last year’s contest, the biggest setback for coach Lincoln Riley’s 2019 campaign.

The largest margin of victory in the series came in 1942, when OU’s squad beat the Wildcats 76-0. In 1995, Kansas State beat OU 49-10 for their biggest win in the series long history.

OU beat KSU 32 consecutive times from 1937-68. The Wildcats longest win streaks stands at five.

Despite Kansas State’s win in 2019, this year’s squad has struggled already, losing to Arkansas State 35-31 in their first 2020 game.

Oklahoma will kickoff versus the Wildcats at 11 a.m. on Saturday.
