History
The series between the border rivals was first contested in 1908 and has been played 103 times.[3][4] Oklahoma has dominated K-State for most of the history of the rivalry, including winning 32 in a row over the Wildcats from 1937 to 1968.[5] Oklahoma went 54–2 against Kansas State from 1937 to 1992.[6] However, the series has been much more competitive since the early 1990s.[6] The Wildcats won five in a row from 1993 to 1997 and have won 11 games over the Sooners since 1993 compared to Oklahoma's 14 wins over the same time span.[7][8] The teams were members of the Big Eight Conference together from 1928 to 1995 and the Big 12 Conference from 1996 to 2023.[9] However, the Sooners left the Big 12 for the Southeastern Conference in 2024,[10][11] and there are currently no future meetings scheduled. The all-time series record currently stands at 77–22–4 in favor of Oklahoma.[12]
