Who's Playing

Oklahoma @ Kansas State

Current Records: Oklahoma 16-14; Kansas State 14-15

What to Know

The Oklahoma Sooners have enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they must head out on the road. Oklahoma and the Kansas State Wildcats will face off in a Big 12 battle at 4 p.m. ET Saturday at Fred Bramlage Coliseum. The Sooners will be strutting in after a win while K-State will be stumbling in from a loss.

The West Virginia Mountaineers typically have all the answers at home, but on Tuesday Oklahoma proved too difficult a challenge. Oklahoma enjoyed a cozy 72-59 victory over West Virginia. Oklahoma can attribute much of their success to guard Jordan Goldwire, who had 16 points along with five rebounds.

Meanwhile, the Wildcats were within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Monday as they fell 73-68 to the Texas Tech Red Raiders. K-State got double-digit scores from four players: guard Mike McGuirl (18), guard Selton Miguel (14), guard Nijel Pack (13), and guard Mark Smith (11).

Oklahoma is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Butler Bulldogs Dec. 7 easily too and instead slipped up with a 66-62. In other words, don't count K-State out just yet.
