UW's first performance on the road that year they barely beat the worst team in the conference in OT. Oregon had lost to Colorado and didn't have a VaJ to employ this time but it was a still a big game until about 35-7 or so. Once the camera panned to @oregonblitzkrieg putting his face in his hands after the second Browning TD I kicked my feet up with another Ninkasi Quook Tears IPA.MikeSeaver said:

After 12 straight losses to follow up a Stanford win with another loss to Oregon would have ruined the magical run to a play off loss. Oregon didn't mail it in until after 70-21. And 70-21 on the road after 12 straight losses? Come on man, fuck Grinolds, that was bigdnc said:The Stanford win a week earlier was the biggest win of the Pete era.
The Oregon win just meant the most to people who would rather beat Oregon than actually have a great team.
The resident quooks are right about this. I'm surprised they're surprised though. Kim Doogolds told us this was the biggest win to his little brain a long time ago.
Had we beat Bama this discussion would be closed. Or maybe USC
Oregon did to Washington what you did to us? About 15 times.
Who fucking cares. -

What was then?MikeSeaver said:
It absolutely wasn’t.RaceBannon said:Or the Pac 12 sucks and beating Colorado and Utah is nothing to get excited about
Beating Stanford and Oregon to win the north will always matter more
Your best win this year was in Seattle
And you know it
Blowing out an SC that doesn't care anymore?
Beating Stanford?
Cal without Garbers?
OSU without Luton?
Colorado is who shit?
Barely squeaking by Cuog at home because LeachFS gifted you time and a shit defense at the end?
Moral victory over Auburn?
Graduating Huhbert after blowing out MWesttingham? -
Always funny when quooks "thank" us for that game and then I get reactions like yours.ntxduck said:

Getting your ass kicked by Cal at home, Stanford, Colorado, and Oregon again at home. Losing 5 Conference games, 3 at home, against a shitty PAC-12. The best thing to happen to you this season was your coach quitting.
You better hope this new guy can be a decent head coach or you're returning to crap fest you were before Peterson made you mediocre -
What a shocking and unpredictable response.RaceBannon said:Sounds like you do
A lot
In this thread a bunch of doogs telling Oregon fans what we should be excited about. -
Thanks again, btw.haie said:

Who penned that "Oregon Myth" piece? That pre-dates Sark by quite a bit. That was nothing more than a way to sooth the anxiety that Oregon was catching up to UW and about to pass them by.creepycoug said:
Here's what I think is Kim's deal.TommySQC said:Kim Grinolds is an embarrassment. Please stop letting him speak for UW. The guy has had a hard on for Oregon going back to the matmik days for those of you that remember.
He had and has no connection to Washington. He showed up here and is one of those guys who runs right out and starts joining clubs to make him feel like he's really part of the community. Almost like one of those guys who wishes he'd lived another life and had been a frat boy, so he'll try and live it out this way. Insecurity is the key personality defect. He wears it like a shirt.
He did that and created this faux UW Super Fan persona and then doubled down and tried to monetize it. Sark came along and was a wet dream because apparently Kim's enthusiasm gave him some level of pretend access. I think his Oregon thing is all part of that routine. He gets that Washington and Oregon have beef and so as to make himself appear even more legitimate, he goes all in on the Oregon shit. I mean, Derek writes fucking books about Washington football ... actual published fucking books ... and I don't think Derek gets half as worked up about the Ducks or anything else.
You can almost see Kim looking around to make sure someone from the old guard is looking at him when he lays the super fan routine on thick. "See guys? I'm a real Husky just like you. It's like I've always been here!"
I think it's completely disingenuous. I've met him briefly a couple of times at Husky PR events. He's a goofy motherfucker. And good God Fetters is a disgusting pig ... he actually stinks. Like for real. I'm not just writing that. He needs help with hygiene. It's disgusting. -
It really was. Kim probably still uses 70-21 with Quooks.dnc said:The Stanford win a week earlier was the biggest win of the Pete era.

I'll put it this way. I attended Washington and grew up on the west side of the mountains. I know about as many Husky fans as is possible for one person to know. They span the socio-economic and sophistication spectrum. Believe me. Of all the Husky fans I know, one of the ways I could split them up is by which P12 team they hate the most.
Group A. Mostly much older people who don't obsess over cfb on a national level, and who don't spend (waste) their entire Saturdays watching games, and who don't follow recruiting online or give a shit about anything other than Washington and the Rose Bowl. For them, winning the Apple Cup really matters. They tend to be a little clueless about the national stage and thus don't know or care that nobody outside the PNW cares about the Apple Cup or know what it is. They're also not overly worked up about Oregon. This is most of my wife's family.
Group B. Tend to be younger than Group A, but plenty of exceptions. Tend to be more sophisticated about cfb nationally and think about Washington in terms of where they fit nationally. They know who's actually good and who isn't. They follow recruiting to varying degrees. Group B knows Cuog is Cuog and (rightfully) expects to beat them but they want more. Much more. Nobody I know in Group A lost sleep when Jonathan Stewart chose Oregon over Washington; everyone I knew in Group B was livid af. These people suffered so greatly during the Duckade that they had to take an emotional break from Washington football.
Tl;dr version: Older regional people who like going to Husky games no matter what and have loved Washington since they were kids and who don't obsess over cfb care about the Apple Cup and don't stress about Oregon; younger, less provincial people who want Washington to be a national cfb power view Oregon as a zero-sum game. Good for Oregon means bad for Washington, and vice versa.

That describes a number of schools fan bases. Of the people who actually attend the games I wonder what percentage of that group follows recruiting. I used to be in Group B. I'd put myself now somewhere between Group A and Group B.creepycoug said:
