Oklahoma State men's basketball vs. Kansas: How to watch, TV channel, livestream, radio

STILLWATER — Oklahoma State is the lone Big 12 team on the outside looking in for NCAA Tournament projections.

But the time to truly change that begins Saturday.

The Cowboys (8-4) travel to No. 4-ranked Kansas (11-1) and historic Allen Fieldhouse on Saturday to begin Big 12 Conference play. Tipoff is set for 1 p.m. on CBS.

OSU has lost three straight in the series and has not won in Lawrence since 2018.

But for the Cowboys to force their way back into the postseason, they’ll need to find success in conference play. Starting with a massive upset would start a new path.

Here is a quick look at what you need to know about Saturday’s matchup:
