Game Notes SLU | Kansas State | Atlantic 10

Saint Louis heads to Kansas City, Missouri, to take on Kansas State on Saturday night at the Sprint Center. Game time is 6 p.m.
 
The game will be streamed live on Big 12 Now on ESPN+ with Ben Boyle, Stan Weber and Bridget Howard on the call. It will also air on 106.5 FM The Arch, with Billiken Hall of Famers Bob Ramsey and Earl Austin Jr. calling the action.

Saint Louis enters Saturday's game with a 9-2 record. The Billikens are coming off an 82-69 victory over Maryville behind a SLU season-high 27 points by Terrence Hargrove Jr. Kansas State is 6-4 on the year.
 
Here are five additional facts in advance of Saturday's game vs. Kansas State:

1 // The Billikens lead the A-10 and are tied for 10th in the NCAA with 42.7 rpg. Their 14.7 offensive rebounds per game rank eighth nationally.

2 // Saint Louis remains the only team in NCAA Division I with two players averaging double-doubles – junior guard Jordan Goodwin averages 15.6 ppg and 11.5 rpg, while junior forward Hasahn French turns in 13.8 ppg and 10.5 rpg.
 
3 // Goodwin is the first Billiken in 30 years to register six consecutive double-doubles. Anthony Bonner in 1989-90 (twice) is the only other Billiken to do so. No Billiken has ever recorded seven straight double-doubles (dating back to 1985-86 season).
 
4 // For the first time in school history, the Billikens have two freshmen with 25-plus point games in the same season – Gibson Jimerson scored 25 against High Point, while Hargrove Jr. pumped in 27 against Maryville.
 
5 // Despite not being played on the Kansas State campus, the game will count as a home game for Kansas State and an away game for Saint Louis, as Kansas State controls the ticketing and game operations for Saturday's game in Kansas City.

UP NEXT: The Billikens host Bethune-Cookman on Sunday, Dec. 29, at Chaifetz Arena. Game time is 6 p.m. on FOX Sports Midwest.
