How to watch Kansas State at Kansas

Time: 11 a.m. CT on Saturday, Oct. 25
TV: TNT/Fubo TV (streaming)
Location: David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium in Lawrence, Kansas

Both the Wildcats and Jayhawks are coming off of a bye and should be well-rested heading into the Sunflower Showdown. K-State (3-4, 2-2 Big 12) earned a big win against TCU in Week 7 by a score of 41-28 as Avery Johnson tossed for three touchdowns.

Although the Wildcats started the season off 1-3, they’ve since won two of their past three games. A win against their rival would do wonders in helping them continue to turn a corner in the second half of this season.

As for the Jayhawks (4-3, 2-2), they are coming off of a 42-17 loss against Texas Tech in Week 7. They are led by sixth-year quarterback Jalon Daniels, who has thrown for 1,752 yards and 18 touchdowns to only two interceptions this season.

Kansas owns the 64-53-5 all-time lead in the series, but it is Kansas State who has won 16 straight meetings entering this contest. The Wildcats narrowly escaped with a 29-27 victory last season, and the Jayhawks will hope this can be the year they finally snap that losing streak.
