Kansas football: Run defense must improve this week vs. Oklahoma State

With the Jayhawks sitting at 3-6, their odds of reaching a bowl game in Les Miles’ first season are slim to none, but that’s okay. Kansas football hasn’t won more than three games in a season since 2009, so getting just one more victory this season would signal that the program is better off now than it was.

Getting a win over #25 Oklahoma State this week isn’t going to be easy, especially given the Jayhawks’ weaknesses and the Cowboys’ strengths.

Kansas is ranked #126 out of 130 in the nation (FBS) in rushing defense, along with being ranked #129 out of 130 in third down conversion defense.
