Last season, the Mountaineers (3-0, 1-0) came away from Lawrence with a 56-34 victory, a game that saw the Jayhawks (2-2, 0-1) run for 367 yards. WVU is 6-1 against KU, and holds a four game win streak in the series.
This will be the third conference game for both teams, as WVU travels to Texas Tech and KU hosts Oklahoma State on Saturday, Sept. 29.
