This is the third longest continuing series in OU football history. Only Oklahoma State (115) and Texas (111) have played the Sooners more often in football than the Jayhawks.
The first game between these two longtime conference foes was in 1903. The game was at Kansas, with the Jayhawks coming out on top, 17-5. The Sooners would also lose the next seven games with Kansas (1904-1910), failing to score in six of the seven contests.
The Jayhawks won the first eight games in the series, but have won just 19 of the 104 games since.
The longest win streak in the series was 12 games by Oklahoma between 1948 and 1959, all under the legendary Bud Wilkinson.
