The Kansas Jayhawks (5-1, 2-1 Big 12) Travel to Norman, Okla., to battle the reeling Oklahoma Sooners (3-3, 0-3) Saturday. Kickoff is at noon ET (ESPN2). Below, we look at Kansas vs. Oklahoma odds from Tipico Sportsbook; check back for all our college football picks and predictions.
What a topsy-turvy season for Kansas, a team that’s on the verge of making its first bowl game in more than a decade. On the other side of the field, Oklahoma is riding a 3-game losing skid and is on pace to have its first non-winning season since 1998.
The Jayhawks played their minds out last week in a 38-31 loss to TCU. Had star QB Jalon Daniels not been hurt in the 1st half, they might still be undefeated. If he can play in this one, Kansas has a chance to pull off the upset.
Oklahoma is far from itself this season. Not only has coach Brent Venables’ defense not performed well, but with QB Dillon Gabriel missing last week, the Sooners were steamrolled by rival Texas 49-0 in the Red River rivalry. This was coming off their own loss to TCU 55-24 the week prior.
Kansas is No. 20 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

Kansas vs. Oklahoma head-to-head
Except for a 2nd-half comeback by Oklahoma in Lawrence last season, the Jayhawks might have been looking at trying to build a winning streak over the Sooners here. Outside of the 12-point loss last year, Kansas has still not even come within 2 touchdowns of Oklahoma in the past 10 meetings.
Kansas has been the doormat of the Big XII for many years. With Oklahoma being the top dog, they routinely make this game non-competitive. This year could be and should be different.
With the defensive struggles mounting at Oklahoma and the Kansas offense averaging more than 35 points per game this season, this is the year for Kansas to make its move against the Sooners. Something Kansas and all the Big 12 members want to do before Oklahoma and Texas defect to the SEC no later than 2025.
