The line: Oklahoma State by 27.5
What's at stake
For Kansas, the Jayhawks can stop the bleeding of a 1-4 start and pick up a victory against the reigning Big 12 champs. From here on out, any KU victory will make people turn their heads. And a win on Saturday would snap a 14-game conference losing streak. For Oklahoma State, a loss would be devastating after starting the season with two tough losses (Arizona and Texas) in its first four games.
Cheers if ...
The KU defense responds after getting gashed for 346 yards on the ground at K-State last week. KU coach Charlie Weis said it was missed assignments and players being out of position that frustrated him the most. It will be another stiff test this week. Cowboys running back Joseph Randle, a Wichita native, is leading the Big 12 with 133.5 yards per game.
Jeers if ...
The Jayhawks get manhandled in the second half again. The Jayhawks are getting outscored 84-43 in the second half (and 43-13 in the fourth quarter) in their five games.
Three things about Oklahoma State
1 Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy is staying quiet about his quarterback situation. True freshman Wes Lunt won the job in the spring and started the Cowboys' first three games before going down with a knee injury in a Sept. 15 win over Louisiana-Lafayette. Redshirt freshman J.W. Walsh replaced Lunt in that game and then played well in a loss against Texas on Sept. 29. Walsh's passer rating (181.2) has been slightly better than Lunt's (143.5) in a small sample. Will Lunt be healthy enough to play?
2 Oklahoma State defensive coordinator Bill Young served as the KU defensive coordinator from 2002 to 2007, engineering the defense that helped KU win the Orange Bowl in 2007-08.
3 Since 2009, Oklahoma State is 20-6 against the Big 12, the best mark in the conference during that span.
Key matchup
The KU passing game versus the Oklahoma St. defense.
If the Jayhawks can't stop the Cowboys, this may not matter. But this may be a OSU defense that the Jayhawks can finally put up some point against. The Cowboys rank seventh in the Big 12 against the pass, and Texas quarterback David Ash threw for 304 yards against Oklahoma State on Sept. 29.
Rustin Dodd's pick: Oklahoma State 39-20
Last season, this one got out of control in a hurry. The Cowboys jumped ahead 56-7 in the first half and cruised to a 70-28 victory. But Oklahoma State QB Brandon Weeden and All-American receiver Justin Blackmon are gone. If the Jayhawks can stop the run, they may be able to keep the score respectable. If not, this one could get ugly, too.
