The Kansas State Wildcats will face the Kansas Jayhawks in the Sunflower Showdown on Saturday at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium in Lawrence. This annual rivalry game between the Jayhawks and Wildcats is always a highly anticipated matchup and this year is no exception. Both teams are 2-2 in Big 12 play this season and a win here would be huge for either side. Before this contest begins, continue reading to get my Kansas State vs Kansas prediction.
This year's Sunflower Showdown is shaping up to be a closely contested game. Kansas State has dominated this rivalry in recent years, but I think that is going to change this week. K-State is 0-2 in true road games this year and should continue to struggle on the road against a Kansas team that has gone 3-1 on their home turf this year. I'll lay the points with the Jayhawks in what should be an entertaining game from Lawrence.
