College Football's Best/Worst Rivalry: Farmageddon (feat.
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- College sports, and especially college football, is defined by its vivid rivalries. These games are defining moments in a season for both teams involved, and oftentimes come at the end of the season, during a week dubbed "Rivalry Week." Expect games like the Iron Bowl, The Game, and Clean, Old Fashioned Hate to be played during this week.
But one game played between two titans of the gridiron trumps them all in its importance. The battle of wheat and corn: Farmageddon, between the Kansas State Wildcats and the Iowa State Cyclones. Truly, this is the greatest rivalry of all time, and definitely wasn't manufactured as a bit of a sideshow joke by the Big 12 in 2009 simply because the two teams were bad ag schools in the Big 12 North.
Ahem.
In this video, I'll attempt to bring the history of the Farmageddon game into the forefront, hitting quick pieces on important games in the rivalry and the all-time record, as well as a somber note on the future of the game. But I couldn't do it alone.
Joining me are my good friends, the @AggievilleACats , a K-State podcast that I've been fortunate enough to be a guest on two separate times. Connor and Ace are experts on the interwoven threads that intertwine these two schools, seeing as it is a fairly new rivalry based on the online sphere. Please check them out if you're interested in things like K-State game previews and postgame recaps, recruiting for football, basketball, and baseball, and some wacky segments of the week.
And remember, wheat is better than corn.
Thank you so much to my guests, Connor and Ace, from the Aggieville Alleycats! If you're interested in more of me interacting with these guys, be sure to check out the last podcast episode I did with these guys-a conference draft, where we drafted our own schools for a conference!

I admire the commitment to making EVERY POSSIBLE AGRICULTURE JOKE
Sending Snyder out on an L is one of my favorite games in ISU history. After the screwjob the year before, that comeback was cathartic
Well it was not great for me tbh 😂
Know I’m months late, but I was at this game and is one of my fondest memories as a Cyclone. Literally saying out loud that if K-State scores one more time I’d leave, only keep my cold butt in the stands for the rest of the game
The Big12 scheduling Matrix, is why I'm pro divisons/pods. It allows for more protected rivalries.
Nice vid. I hate to be that guy, but it’s the Red River Shootout
Yes, it is. Big 12 neutered the name a couple years ago, if I remember right
Abu Sama is still running. You purple kitties 😸 should think about tackling him.
We're not used to snow in... *checks map* the midwest
@@lukeontheplains lol. Yeah I admit it truly was bizarre to watch. The snow helped no doubt. BUT I gotta point out that ISU has put their share of skill guys in the NFL lately, but I guess it's still SHOCKING that this year's version of ISU also has guys that are noticeably harder to bring down when the elements give them an advantage over tacklers, yet K State (who is a good team) can't break the same big plays. Must be 100% effort related, ISU's ability to attract and develop skill guy talent obviously has nothing to do with it!
Two of Sama's touchdowns were aided by a guy who entered the transfer portal as soon as the season ended deciding not to wrap up tackle as a business decision. My guess is the coaching staff politely asked him to take a hike after viewing his effort.
How does this guy not have more subs
I'm not all that good
@@lukeontheplainsbut you can be if you eat more wheat.
this guy wheats.
This is beautiful and I love it.
Corn > Wheat
I thought Cal-Stanford was 'The Game'. Anyway, I really wish the Big XII suits had decided to keep Farmageddon. A spicy rivalry between two pretty similar schools.
They should schedule a non conference game in 2027 to keep this streak alive
I was expecting them to talk about that 2015 embarrassing loss instead of glossing over it
to be honest I just love it because of the name
#bringbackfarmaggeddon
This may not be the most famous, competitive or nationally relevant rivalry. But by God is it the best name for a rivalry.
FARMAGEDOOOOOOOOON!
Honorable Mention to the 1987 matchup with both teams winless-and the game ending in a 17-17 tie, or what ABC Sports' Al Trautwig called "College Football's version of the Bataan Death March"
So excited about the upcoming game this Saturday! So disappointed that it won’t happen in 2027!
The series has been very lopsided since the turn of the century but the games are almost always super competitive. Go clones
Literally nobody can predict this game. It's total chaos
I hope the Big 12 changes its mind and keeps this a permanent rivalry.
Very good history of an overlooked rivalry.
We're going to need a videography of ¡El Assico! eventually.
If North Carolina and Wake Forest can have non-conference football games while being in the same conference, why can't Farmageddon occur in 2027 as a non-conference game?
Both schools probably have the non conference schedules booked for 2027, at least I’m pretty sure Iowa State does.
ISU has South Dakota State, Iowa, Bowling Green in 2027; Northern Iowa and Tulane in 2028; North Dakota and @ Tulane in 2029; South Dakota and UNLV in 2030. No Iowa 2028-30 which should get resolved. So unless Bowling Green, Tulane, and UNLV (assuming they want the FCS games) can get bought out...
KSU has Georgia Southern in 2027; Nothing in 2028; @WSU in 2029 (home and home 2026); and a home and home with Rutgers in 2030/31

(Granted, I should have looked before this, but I was speaking hypothetically not knowing the schedule commitments)

Gotta love Farmageddon, go Clones!
🌪️🌪️🌪️
Love the amazing content as always hope you wildcats had an amazing thanksgiving rooting for your purple and gray to beat Iowa State!
As an Iowa fan who has had relatives go to K-State its always a good show watching Iowa State get beat. Great vid
Do a video on the backyard brawl
As an Lsu fan who studied river management im taking KStates side in football and agriculture. None of the states on the Mississippi river do a goob of monitoring what they dump into the river, bit Iowa doesnt even try. They use that thing like a toilet for their corn and pig farms. If you wanna start a new farm theyll let you set up and get you running off in a jiffy. And the worst part is corn farmers are useless now cuz they grow too much and live off government money. Get a new crop iowa
Corn solos btw
K-State Lose to Iowa State :(
I really love this content! As a Ute entering the conference it’s great learning all the Big 12 lore. Great work!
Happy thanksgiving my dude. Thanks for dropping a new video today
its rivalries like this that make college football
“Some dude named bill snyder” had me cracking up mans a legend
Next do the Kansas/Kstate
These videos are gas
Just now dawning on me that the purple wildcats shirt in your profile picture is not, in fact, a Northwestern shirt. I was eagerly awaiting a video on our unsung heroes of Evanston
It may well come at some point
Great job 👏🏼
You have to make a video on the 2023 game
Every game from 2009 to infinity is gonna need a recap, ngl. That's just this game
do one for oklahoma state and texas tech. This should be turning into one with a name soon.
I REALLY want to do one on the Dust Bowl.
The best rivalry in the college football is and I State rivalry not this rivalry though. Iowa Iowa state baby. Yeah i'm an iowa fan please pitty me
Nah you guys are good
nah. it’s ohio state/TTUN. the two states went to war with each other. funny enough wisconsin was the ultimate loser
The best rivalry is Army-Navy. There is an entirely different level of disdain between the two schools that no other rivalry matches.
Imagine dropping out of a rivalry like this just because you dominated for a couple decades like Snyder did. Oh wait..I’m getting word tcu canceled the iron skillet and justified it because they wanted 7 home games and definitely not because all their fans think playing SMU is beneath them just because they dominated a couple decades, even though plenty of other serious OOC rivalries can be sometimes one sided, such as clean old fashioned hate?Wow. That stinks. This is brought to you by a SMU fan who thinks tcu fans are running from what SMU could be just because they don’t want SMU to ever catch up to them.
It's not a rivalry!
It's a rivalry. If nothing else it's a great marketing opportunity for John Deere.
If the fans of both schools think it's a rivalry, it's a rivalry
It's absolutely a rivalry. The intense vitriol among fans is there, the history is there, the geographic and cultural ties are there... It's a rivalry.
