SportsBeat KC: One-sided Sunflower rivalry returns + Mizzou’s most frustrating foe

Beat writers Kellis Robinett and Gary Bedore talk Sunflower Showdown on SportsBeat KC with host Blair Kerkhoff and wonder about the game’s meaning to both sides.
Missouri hasn’t played since beating LSU two weeks ago, and the Tigers have a big one on Saturday when Kentucky visits. No SEC program has caused the Tigers more frustrations over the last five years than the Wildcats.
