Notes

  • Kansas used the starting lineup of freshmen Brandon Rush, Mario Chalmers and Julian Wright and sophomores Sasha Kaun and Russell Robinson for the seventh straight game. The Jayhawks are 7-0 when using this starting lineup.
  • Reigning Big 12 Player of the Week Mario Chalmers made 21 straight free throws before missing one with 1:10 left in the contest. He was 7-for-8 from the charity stripe against OSU and is shooting 84.5 percent in Big 12 play.
  • The Jayhawks made just six field goals in the first half, the fewest since KU made six at Nevada in the first stanza on Dec. 21, 2003.
  • Neither team made a 3-pointer in the first half. KU’s 0-for-4 from behind the arc marked the third time this season it has not made a trey in the opening stanza.
  • The Jayhawks’ one 3-pointer (Robinson, 8:41 left in the second half) marked the fewest by a KU squad since March 27, 2003 against Duke (also made one).
  • KU has hit a 3-pointer in 200 consecutive games.
  • Oklahoma State was 1-for-13 from behind the arc. The last time a KU opponent only made one trey was Iowa State on Jan. 6, 2003. The Cowboys’ 7.7 percent shooting from 3-point range marked the lowest by a KU foe since March 8, 1996 when Colorado shot 0.0 percent.
  • The Jayhawks’ and Cowboys’ combined two treys marked the fewest by two teams in a KU game since Iowa State and KU made two on March 8, 1997.
  • The combined 40 field goals made were the fewest in a Jayhawk contest since Dec. 6, 2003, when Stanford and KU made 35 total.
  • The Cowboys’ six offensive rebounds were the fewest by a KU foe since Feb. 27, 2005, when OSU had just six at Allen Fieldhouse.
  • KU set new season lows in 3-pointers (one), 3-point attempts (seven) and 3-point field goal percentage (14.3), but totaled a season-best 16 steals in the win.
  • OSU set opponent season lows in field goal attempts (48), 3-pointers (one), 3-point percentage (7.7) and offensive rebounds (six), and tied the KU season high for opponent turnovers with 24.
