Often times when you see OU vs OSU when talking football, people think of Ohio or Oklahoma but this year we are talking OREGON in what could be the greatest Civil War game ever fought in Oregon. This year it is for all the marbles, the winner gets an automatic invite to the Rose Bowl. Football fever and furor has hit, especially here in Eugene.

If OSU wins, it will be OSU vs. OSU (Ohio State). If Oregon wins, it will be another OSU vs. OU.  Game day is upon us.

Tomorrow we expect to see Black and Orange confronting Green and Yellow all over town. With the two teams only an hour apart, it could be a very exciting day, even though it is being played on a Thursday at 6 pm. Tickets are, of course, sold out. Scalpers may make a bunch on this one. Check out this blog for a pretty good history lesson.

Who am I for? Well, I went to Oregon State so I am definitely a Beaver fan, but I live and work in Eugene/Springfield so I won’t be devastated if the Ducks win. Either way, an Oregon team will be in the Rose Bowl and will make us proud. Checking the blogs and the pundits, it ranges from Oregon winning by a few, to Oregon State winning by a few. Whatever happens, guaranteed it will be a game to watch. This rivalry has been going on for 113 games. What will be the result of this one?
