As the Kansas Jayhawks prepare to face off against the Oklahoma State Cowboys at Gallagher-Iba Arena, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent performance trend. The Jayhawks have been on a winning streak, showcasing a robust game with impressive statistics that suggest they're in top form.
