The blog is drowning in apathetic sorrow over the boredom felt toward Oregon vs. Washington. But worry not, there are others who will deliver you a steaming pile of Dawg hate.
The Losing Continues and A Rivalry Suffers
When did the rivalry die for you? Was it 31-6? How about 55-34? 43-19? Oh, don’t tell me. You’re one of those people still insisting you despise the Huskies. Not silly-haha hate, but pure, unadulterated loathing that has your blood boiling at the mention of the color purple.
Charting Oregon-Washington Since the Birth of Football
Words are so hard to read. Especially the big ones. Instead of blathering on about Washington and Oregon, why don’t we just represent the rivalry with this graph. In case that’s still too much to process, the blog has interpreted the data for you.
A Rivalry Reborn, One Team's Dominance Will Continue
Week 8 Predictions PreNicktion: Oregon 34, UW 26 FOTB Prediction: Black helmet, white jersey, black pants, black shoes. You can simulate this combination here. And it should be noted, Miss FOTB nailed it without knowing the combo had already been reported. The game without a name is back. Don’t believe me? You must not have [...]
Could Resurgent Huskies End Streak of Losing Seasons?
The losing seasons that have permeated Husky Stadium may soon be at an end. Sure, 2009 may still get a check mark, but through seven games, it’s clear these aren’t your five year old’s Huskies. This group plays hard and has a chance to win every game they play. Consider that a year ago, Washington’s [...]
The Rivalry According to YouTube
Who knew YouTube could write blog posts? My video version of this rivalry is decidedly one-sided so you won’t find anything remotely Husky-centric. Then again, YouTube is a modern invention and, considering Oregon’s won 10 of the last 14, Washington’s better days would probably be hard to find in the digital realm. No explanation necessary [...]
Washington Huskies: An Updated Historical Perspective
This is kind of lazy. I did this same post before last year’s Husky game. But seeing as how nothing has changed with the team’s results, why should my content? Special thanks to jhowell.net for having an unmatched database of information that allows me to check data all the way back to 1916. Last losing [...]
For a Week, Let's Make Believe There's Still a Rivalry
Oregon vs. Washington – one of my favorite weeks of the year – has finally arrived. There’s a problem, though. I forgot how to care. After all those years of Washington telling us it isn’t a rivalry, I might just agree. The score since 2004 is 199-85, Oregon. The head-to-head tally is Oregon 5, Washington [...]
Pondering the quarterbacks
I watched the Washington game (duh). I was like just about everyone else. More Jeremiah Masoli, more Chris Harper. Roper? Eh, moving on. But wait. Let’s think about this with a little more thought. Why are we all so sure Roper isn’t the guy? He played well enough as a 5th string fill-in to get [...]
Come on Washington, make me care again
Washington, I’ve had it with you. This is the third consecutive year I’ve had to write this post lamenting the demise of this interstate rivalry. I’ve asked for you to get better. I’ve openly stated that I think you’re more fun when you win. You’re not going to find a lot of Duck fans willing [...]
