A week after tasting victory in Big 12 Conference play for the first time since 2010, Kansas looks kick dust off another vintage streak when the Jayhawks travel to Iowa State looking for their first road win in league play since 2008. Saturday's contest at Jack Trice Stadium in Ames, Iowa, will kickoff at 7 p.m. and be televised nationally on Fox Sports 1.
Kansas (3-7, 1-6 Big 12) used 211 yards and three touchdowns from senior HB James Sims to topple West Virgina and a 27-game winless streak in conference games, and will look to take another step forward in the program's rebuild under Charlie Weis in the team's final road game of the 2013 season. Ames was the site of Kansas' last Big 12 road win, a 35-33 shootout on Oct. 4, 2008 - KU's last winning season.
Iowa State (1-9, 0-7), losers of seven straight, all in Big 12 Conference play, will look to take its turn as the cantankerous host and bounce itself from the bottom of the league's leaderboard on ISU's Senior Day. The Cyclones have lost five games by 10 points or less, including three Big 12 contests, and played TCU to a, 21-17, defeat two weeks ago at home.
Kansas leads the all-time series against Iowa State 49-37-6, which includes a slight 22-21-3 edge in games played in Ames.
