From an Oregon fan perspective:

Your theory has a smidgen of truth to it, if you were 2nd best. Even if Oregon falls, UW will still have to pass Stanford, USC, UCLA, ASU, and Arizona.

Race is right when he talks about UW possibly changing if Oregon wins out. The major driving force for Oregon getting their baseball program back, was watching OSU win back to back titles. If it wasn't for OSU's success Oregon would still have a mid level wrestling program (75k). If Oregon wins the title and UW still doesn't wake up and improve, then your problems are much bigger than just Oregon. It might seem weird, but Oregon winning it all, might actually be better for your program, by forcing the administration to actually support the program.

I laughed, then I cried. I think I need some whiskey. They have many chances to support the program. Oregon smoking it all now probably won't change their attitude that much.

If true, then Softy's statement is full blown doog by definition. Also if true, then you'll eventually need to pick a new team. Screw that loyalty garbage. If my team doesn't show loyalty to me as a fan, by at least trying to keep with the pack, then I'll support a new team that will. That's why I waved bye bye to the Mariners a while ago. My Angels at least try to build a team that wins championships.

Speaking for myself, I don't think I could pick another team. It's easier to tell a pro team to fuck off... much harder when it's your school. Of course, I'm still a fan, but less so than I used to be. Outside of watching the games on TV, I don't spend money on Husky merchandise... and I didn't renew my season tickets when they gave TW a 4th season.

Yeah Race I thought the same. But do you
really believe Washington would respond
if Oregon wins it all? I have serious doubts.
I just don't think the institutional will is there.
I don't think the culture is there. Which I guess
makes it all mute whether Oregon wins or not.

I knew this would be perceived as a doogish
response but I am 180 degrees from doogville.
I don't really care if the comment came from Softy
or the biggest anti-doog on here. The point remains
the same. For the Huskies to eventually become
championship caliber they are going to have to go
through Oregon. If we assume that happens by the
Huskies getting infinitely better while Oregon remains
the same, that is the ultimate in wishful thinking.
Every win for this program is critical at this point,
but I'd gladly give one up if it brought them back closer to
the pack. Yes, ultimately you want to catch up to
Oregon and beat their ass, but them fukking up just
makes that task easier.

This is fucktardly stupid ...

Oregon's a GREAT benchmark for us right now as a fringe National Championship contender most years and the most consistent program in the conference over the last 5-10 years.

My goal is to win conference championships and in so doing contend for national championships under this new system.

Beating Oregon does jack shit if it doesn't mean that we're winning conference championships.

If you told me that we'd lose to Oregon every year but we'd finish 12-1, win the conference, and be in the Final Four Playoff, I'd take that EVERY YEAR.

Getting to, and exceeding, Oregon's level is what we should be aspiring to ... NOT having Oregon fall back to our level so that it is easier to beat them.
