Farmageddon has always been four hours of absolute lunacy. With 12:27 to go in this year’s edition, that description was guaranteed. K-State, the prohibitive underdog, stood with a 38-21 lead over Iowa State and the unbelievable prospect of reaching bowl eligibility after a 3-6 start. It was already insane, and the only way to erase that insanity would of course be even more insanity.
And then Iowa State only took two minutes to pull within ten points.
And then Skylar Thompson was hit in the backfield 104 seconds later and Mike Rose returned his fumble for a touchdown.
