Last time out, Kansas made easy work of the Holy Cross Crusaders, defeating them 92-59 Wednesday night.

Looking ahead at the Jayhawks schedule, they have dates with Montana, San Diego State and UC Irvine before starting up conference play.

Oregon State had to fight back in this one as they trailed 53-52 with 6:17 to play and used a 13-6 run late to regain the lead and capture the win. Gary Payton II stuffed the stat sheet for the Beavers finishing with 16 points, eight rebounds, two steals and two blocks. Following their matchup with Kansas, Oregon State will host CS Fullerton, Tulsa and Quinnipiac before heading into its Pac-12 schedule.
