On Monday, the Big 12 Conference and FOX Sports announced the Oct. 27 matchup between the Wildcats and Sooners will start at 2:30 p.m. and be broadcast on FOX, per a release by K-State Sports.
K-State lost its last three games against Oklahoma, with the last win coming in 2014. The Wildcats have two victories over the Sooners since 2008, and both were on Oklahoma’s home turf.
Coming off a 31-12 win over Oklahoma State on Saturday and into a bye week, K-State will have more time to prepare for the high-powered Oklahoma offense.
