I don't get it...maybe because I'm a Jack Doog. There is a lot of talk about Cuog obsessing over UW (deserved, and true), but there appears to be some obsession over "little brother"...They are a historical, traditional rival that we have the upper hand on to date, and always will. They know they are little bro, and anyone who is a little bro loves nothing more than getting under big bro's skin.
The AC has always been an event, rife with passion, shit talking between co-workers, friends, families...It is intense, and it is fun. That's not happening with Purdue, or Northwestern, or Wisky, or anyone else in the B1G...I don't know about y'all, but I have a hell of a lot more interest going forward with the AC, as opposed to non-conference games with San Jose State, Tulsa, Nevada (Chris Tormey alert!), Georgia State...et.al.
I was talking to someone today about Thanksgiving football, and it really pisses me off that Texas and aTm no longer play on Thanksgiving, because aTm bitched out when they went to the SEC. They are rivals, rivals who haven't played each other for years...
Wherever the Cuog end up, I hope they kick ass, and I hope the Dawgs kick their ass, every year, Montlake, Lumen, Pullman, or fucking Ellensburg...same as it ever was

I’ve been using the term “alimony” with my family and friends. It was naive to think we? could dump the Pac-12 and the Coug without any consequences.UW_Doog_Bot said:Ultimately this will be a B/C game we get a free win out of but still manage to make revenue from bc fans will show up.
I'm fine with giving the cougs severance of a few more games in Pullman to realize their new place in the world.
Beyond 2028 no more games out there though. Coug will make more money coming to Seattle anyways in there new found poverty.
(Big sigh) Whatever.

Unfortunately we need to stop romanticizing the past. Cross state rivalries meant something when college football was a regional sport.Fishpo31 said:I don't get it...maybe because I'm a Jack Doog.

Despite what I’ve said in group chats and on message boards, I don’t take any joy in the Apple Cup winding down. Being one of the few Husky fans in my Eastern Washington hometown, I grew up around the Coug shit talk. It was fun when there was more parity between the schools.
But UW and other west coast schools kept sacrificing what was best for them on the altar of maintaining tradition for far too long, which enabled the SEC and B1G to jump ahead while the Pac 12 slowly bled out. -
Oregon is UW’s rival.
That’s it. That’s all there needs to be. -
I don't mind the annual cuog beatdown
Looking forward to another one this Saturday to deny them bowl eligibility -

Disagree. Its been fun and memorable over the years.TheHB said:Oregon is UW’s rival.
That’s it. That’s all there needs to be.
And it’s always fun to pick on little brother.
