Spartans come to town
And get impaled on our lance
Old technology.

Spartans crumble in
The face of adversity
Face our blackout crowd.

Vegas-big point spread.
Spartan secondary thin.
Pass, cover the spread.

Dream scenario.
Ditch run first, defense lights out.
Tear down the goal posts.

When we slit their throats
Red blood on their green jerseys
Will look like Christmas

NOW THAT IS A HAIKU!

Not only 5-7-5 but each line a separate phrase that, together, paints a vivid picture of a place, setting and feeling. Except.. they will be wearing white.. so maybe "green numbers"? And instead of look like Christmas. maybe feel like Christmas.. minor points, its perfect... really well done.

Woe to the Spartans
Raritan Banks battle looms
Like Thermopylae

Spartans and Trojans
One is a sticky condom
But it's Greek to me

Go ask the Spartans,
Stranger passing by,
Got a spare coach we could buy?

(Yes, five five seven
Is often acceptable
In modern Haiku)

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Some poems rhyme
But this one doesn't.

(Yes, four lines no rhymes
Completely ridiculous
But works with Haiku)

They are Green they're White
Scarlet Knights need to show up
Down with Sparty time

Green and white will fight
Let's hope blackout rules the night
Both will wear some pink

King Leonidas
Threw a Persian down the well
Spartans to follow

I posted this for Norfolk State (they're also the Spartans) so I guess it's still appropriate:
Spartans are coming
Kill! Kill! Blood makes the grass grow.
Even if it's turf.
And a slight modification to my haiku for the Kansas Jayhawks:

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!
Spartan blood is what we'll spill.
Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!
