    "learn some class"

    Soft entitled fan base. They've become everything they made fun of UW fans for during the Ty/Sark era.

    "Act like you've been there" is another good one

    Solid recap. Contemplating not even posting mine after this.

    Let’s hear it.

    I know these things are guesstimates, but what would you say the crowd split was inside the stadium?

    I’d have guessed probably 60-65% Oregon fans.

    I’d call 60/40 green but that was from my vantage. Someone else mentioned a different take from the nose bleeds.

    Udub fans made more noise. Or maybe it just felt that way because almost everyone around me was very loud and obnoxious.
    You might have been sitting close to @DoogerMcFarland who should have let that lady take a shot so she could get a free $8.99 buffet.

    That particular interaction occurred at Mandalay Bay.

    I was 65-35 Ducks at 2/3 hotels next to stadium (Luxor/Mandalay Bay)

    Game was approx 60/40 Zeros. They had patches on our side of stadium, where I saw very little Purple on theirs.

    Alot of Utah fans there as well.

    They close a bridge over freeway for football games, so you could walk from one of the 3 casinos to stadium in 10-15 minutes. Really convenient. Would not want to be a guy wearing the wrong colored jersey for a Raider Game though. Not a good business decision.

    It's probably better I didn't go as there's a 97% chance I would have ended up in jail.

    Whys that? I went and had virtually 0 issues besides friendly banter.

    Maybe this has been discussed elsewhere but what’s with the big majority Duck fans? I thought UW traveled well, at least in the conference’s geographic footprint.

    That's the way it should be but let's just say it's happened before, generally when I'm standing up for or protecting someone else. This particular rivalry goes back to the early 80's before I was even in college in Seattle. I wanted to be a Husky growing up in Porland when I was a sophomore in HS. Oregon football fans hated the Huskies with a passion back then. I think the 1st win against them this year meant more to Husky fans and this Pac-12 championship was personal. Everyone wrote UW off and Oregon was certain they would win. I don't know man, I guess I wanted this game so badly for the program and to settle some scores.
