Not so sure about that. Being in the same conference is a big part of the equation. The opportunity to play spoiler or clinch a conference title, etc. has always been a big factor. Not every year, of course, but much of the time it has.Kingdome_Urinals said:

I went to the Oregon State vs WSU game they played there ~10 years ago and thought it was twash as fuck. Little tailgate butt clusters in random alleyways/parking lots. Just a shitty venue and part of the city. Fuck the 12's.LoneStarDawg said:While I don’t give a shit about WSU, it would be fun to see lumen split east and west crimson and purple just once
A split stadium in downtown Seattle would have a ton of juice. It would be a better spectacle than a traditional apple cup and draw a lot more fan interest IMO.
I think the novelty of a Labor Day Weekend game against Cuog at Lumen Field would wear off pretty fast, especially when one team is big time and the other team is small time. -
I don't want UW doing WSU any favors going forward. I don't see how playing them at all is anything but a favor.Kingdome_Urinals said:

Play them every 4 years at Lumen and rename it the World Apple Cup.
Hand out scarfs at the gate. -

Oh I will never go to one of these games, would just be fun to see a crowd shot on TV.haie said:

Oregon is our rival, coog can fuck right off -
I was joking with some duck fans after the game that they should just call the uw/uo game the civil war…just replace the boovs with us.
They’d be so pissed forever🤣 -

Clink is good when you're in your seat, which is the point of a stadium. ATBS, the rest of the stadium mostly sucks and the surrounding areas are dumpy.haie said:

Apple Cup was played at Century Link in 2011. I don't recall it being a big spectacle or a split stadium.Kingdome_Urinals said:
