LAWRENCE, Kansas — This marked the Cowboys’ closest Big 12 game of the season, if you’re at all into moral victories.
Oklahoma State lost to Kansas 38-21 on Saturday in the newly renovated David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium. It was the Cowboys’ 15th straight Big 12 defeat (16th if you count the 2023 Big 12 title game), as the Pokes fall to 1-8 overall and 0-6 in Big 12 play this season.
Here are 10 thoughts from the game.
1. Competitive First Half
Going into the locker room, the Cowboys trailed 10-7 but outgained the Jayhawks by 49 yards, had a higher time of possession and had a better average yard per play.
