Washington leads the all-time series against Oregon

Let's start with the numbers and facts because the numbers don't lie. Washington is 60-45-5 against the Ducks and even though Oregon won 12 straight games against UW between 2004-2015, they picked up 12 more wins in that span and are still 15 games worse than us in the series. Fun fact: Washington has not only won the last two meetings against Oregon, but they've outscored them 108-24. Again, the numbers don't lie.

UW actually has won a national championship

72,638 uniform combinations, 0 National Championships! Cougar and Duck fans team up against the Huskies on this one since UW technically shared a National Title in 1991 and they believe we don't have our own championship. Two things to note here: First, the record books say we have two national championships from 1960 and 1991 and second, even if the nay-sayers say that we shared our '91 championship with Miami...that's still half of a championship that Oregon doesn't have.

Oregon fans ride the bandwagon

Whenever I find somebody in Washington wearing anything Oregon Duck related, I ask if they're lost and I always wonder if those individuals are smart enough to read a map. In my five years of sports retail experience, I witnessed a plethora of Duck fans coming into my store and talking trash, but most of those people reside in Washington. The Huskies went 0-12 in 2008 and Husky nation is still stronger than ever. I haven't heard anything relevant from the Duck faithful since their loss to Ohio State in the CFP National Championship game back in 2015 (did I mention they lost that game?).

UW is better suited for the future

Oregon had a rough 2017 season with Willie Taggart as their head coach, and he left the following year for Florida State (I don't blame him). Although Oregon is back to relevance, they still have a ton of ground to make up with what Chris Petersen has done with UW. Although Browning, Gaskin, Gains, and a few other seniors will be leaving after this season, UW is loaded with QBs and solid 3-4 star recruits for the next few years, and years to come. This isn't to say that Oregon has young studs coming in too, but until Chris Petersen leaves UW or until Oregon decides to defeat UW again, the Ducks have a lot of catch-up to play.

We have always been able to pump our own gas

This is one of the more underrated aspects of why Washington will always reign supreme over Oregon. While a new law passed earlier this year that allows Oregonians to pump their own gas, the fact that they weren't allowed to before makes me laugh. I wonder if UO has a class on how to work a gas pump?
