True freshman Shane Illingworth will make his second straight start for No. 17 Oklahoma State when the Cowboys visit Kansas on Saturday at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium in Lawrence, Kansas.
Illingworth was 15 of 21 for 139 yards, but threw one interception in OSU’s 27-13 home win against West Virginia last week as he stepped in for Spencer Sanders, who suffered a right ankle sprain in the season opener against Tulsa on Sept. 19. The Cowboys (2-0, 1-0 Big 12) used a run-heavy attack against the Mountaineers to help ease Illingworth into his first career start.
