STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Kansas faces a daunting task on the road Saturday.
The Jayhawks (2-2, 0-1 Big 12) will visit No. 6 Oklahoma State (4-0, 1-0), hoping their struggling defense can somehow slow down the Cowboys.
Only two teams in the country have given up more yards rushing than Kansas’ 252.5 per game. The Jayhawks rank next-to-last in the Bowl Subdivision in total defense (545 ypg) and dead last in scoring defense (44.3 ppg). The passing defense ranks 108th out of 120 teams.
That doesn’t bode well against an Oklahoma State offense that’s third in the nation in total offense (571.5 ypg), second in passing (415.5) and sixth in scoring (46.8 ppg).
