I can't even imagine the qookiest of qook argument Oregon was relevant before 94. They had two seasons where they finished ranked before that in the history of the program, and they were in the 40s and 50s and they weren't particularly astounding. Even 94 isn't much compared to what they've done since Chip got there.
That program is also in a 10x better place than it was in the rest of the 90s, where they weren't great either. Their best season was 95 where they got assblasted in the Cotton Bowl.
UW has to have their shit together to win in the rivalry. They haven't won a game in it while not being on point since 2003.
Here's my quibble…. you say winning got Sux to the top. But before that, it was Oregon's uprecedented tackiness, billboards in times square hyping B- talents, Phil forcing OU merch into stores around the country if you wanted to carry Nike, SEC levels of illegal payments, and a fuckload of paid native OU promotion all over sports media…. that laid the foundation for Chip Kelly to succeed. In other words, it was a shit ton of corruption, coercion, planted media, and shitting on standards that got OU to the table - that they never organically deserved to be at due to their shitty talent base and shitty academics and methy campus - Before they could win with Kelly.
Thread got retarded, but to answer the original question no they aren't going away because they are really good at or they at least spend enough on:
Transfer portal talent acquisition: They are much better at it than other schools that seemingly spend on their level. There's no doubt that the Tulane rb will be a top 3-4 back in conference. Pulling him makes having Jonah seem like not as big of an advantage.
Roster Management: kind of goes along with #1 but they either develop a rando guy out of nowhere or fill in their roster holes nicely from the portal every off-season. The 4-7 win UW teams it's usually one position that they just fail to even mildly patch, by comparison.
Staff turnover: Relatively stable, from an outsiders perspective anyways, and that helps with the above two points as well.

I was complimenting your school, but great essay. Sorry you disagree with the year your program became relevant. Not sorry about 2023. Fag.

Even in 94 they lost to Utah and Hawaii
Little brother syndrome and awfully defensive. dud2dud
Coward doogs hate facts. I didn't state an opinion, I stated reality.
