The Cyclones (13-4, 2-3), ranked 17th in the most recent Associated Press poll, snapped a two-game losing skid on Saturday with a 76-63 victory at Kansas State. Monday night’s contest with the No. 2-ranked Sooners will be the first of back-to-back Monday night games against Big 12 contenders. One week after OU visits Hilton Coliseum in Ames the Kansas Jayhawks come calling.
Oklahoma will likely be ranked No. 1 in the country by tip off against the Cyclones. The No. 1 spot has not been kind to college teams the last couple of weeks, with former No. 1s Michigan State and Kansas falling in successive weeks.
