  • Sunflower Showdown ???

    The term "Sunflower Showdown" needs to be put to rest.
    1. It is not inclusive of the 3rd D1 team in the state
    2. This "rivalry" between KU and ksu has been a joke for the past 20-25 years with WSU owning a higher winning percentage than KSU against KU.

    I'm not for Gov't mandates requiring the 3 to play, but clearly the press should stop calling this the "Sunflower Showdown" until it starts to include the Shockers.
    Otherwise they can call it:
    -- Big Brother Little Brother Showdown
    -- Northern Kansas Showdown
    -- Big XII Teams from Kansas Showdown
    -- Lopsided Showdown
    -- KU vs KSU Showdown
    -- Usually Boring Showdown
    -- KU vs "Coat-tail hanger on" Showdown
    -- ex-Illinois Coaches Showdown
    -- The 85 Mile showdown
    -- The Cattle / Wheat Road Showdown
    -- The KU vs Who Gives a Ratz A$$ Showdown
    -- The 183-91 Showdown

    But.... NOT the Sunflower Showdown.

    Bill Selfish vs Weber Do Anything Than Play Shockers Showdown
    Chickenshitters (Lawyers) vs Chickenfeeders Showdown
    Chickens in the Silo Showdown (when KSU is hosting)
    Chickens vs Tractors Shindig
    Two Peas In A Pod Except One Of 'Em Showdown

        I liked the Lutz reference

        KU vs Washington Generals Showdown

        K-State is something like 3-49 against KU in the past few decades.

        Definitely not a "Sunflower Showdown."

                Unfortunately some of us aren't within 30 miles of one of those. I agree they do have good deals there.

                  You can't be much farther than me being in NW Butler. 21st and Greenwich. It is about a 12 minute drive for me but it's also just as close as any Dillons to where I live. Are you more likely to go to Newton from your location? I forget about that option for those that live closer to 196.

                    I'm even more North of that so yes, Newton is the option.
