Green and yellow. Orange and black. These four colors are spread throughout the state of Oregon, often hanging from various flag poles up and down the I-5 corridor. Some have split households, others have deep allegiances that are formed by years of hate and vitriol towards the other team.
Oregon Ducks vs. Oregon State Beavers; it’s a rivalry that is deeply entrenched in the state of Oregon.
This rivalry means quite a lot this year, as well. With Oregon ranked No. 9, and Oregon State ranked No. 21, this is the most competitive matchup we will have seen between the two teams in years. Should the Ducks win, they will advance to the Pac-12 Championship Game. Should the Beavers win, head coach Jonathan Smith will have an early leg up on Dan Lanning in the bitter rivalry.
As is usually the case, Oregon is going heavy on the school colors in their uniforms for this matchup. Check out what they’re going to be wearing on Saturday afternoon in Corvallis”
