Desert Duck No. 6 Share Posted November 22, 2023 There have been many great Civil War games, but after all of these years, the one that I sadly cannot forget -- and believe me, I've tried, is that miserable game in 1983 and the 0-0 tie. It was a cold, crappy weather day, and we were about to leave at halftime, but sadly, decided to stick around just to see what would happen. That was a mistake. But what a difference a few decades make . Over the past 15 years, we're 12-2 against the RiverRats. After this Friday, 13-2. GO DUCKS! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mic No. 7 Share Posted November 22, 2023 My favorite Beaver memories: Well, I'd have to say watching the "Great Pumpkin' roaming the sidelines. I kinda miss 'ol Dee Andros. He was Oregon's watered-down version of Mike Leach. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Featherbutt No. 8 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Nothing compares to the 2008 Jerimiah Johnson beat down of "Rose Bowl bound" OAC in the freshly-named Reser Rodeo Arena. At age 59, and having seen every (and remembering most) Civil War games since the early-ish 70's, that game was soooooooo gooooooood. I was sitting on my couch in suburban Washington, DC that night laughing. Laughing more than I have laughed before or since. Masoli, Jerimiah Johnson, Blount, Boyett. These guys do not get enough run in modern day discussions among Duck fans. In a lot of ways these guys were the OG's of the program we enjoy today. What a final conference game for the OG of the OG's: Coach MB. Chip had a small part in that triumph too. This game surpasses the Wisconsin Rose Bowl, the Colorado Fiesta, and the Florida State RB IMO. Sheer joy. 1 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I recall the last play of the game Oregon ran a hook & lateral and got ran out at about the 13 yard line as time expired. We've "come a long way baby!"

I ended up going to this game with my grade school friend's father. He is a great guy and it's such a fond memory. In fact, you've reminded me that I need to reach out to him and say hello. Not to mention that it was just one heluva game for all of the reasons you mentioned and more. But Masoli trucking that Beaver over and into tomorrow, is still the one that jumps out to me the most. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FG Lumber No. 14 Share Posted November 22, 2023 My first civil war was 1963 at Hayward field. Ducks, behind Bob Berry, killed the Beavers 31-14.......and Mel Renfro didn't even play. I'm always concerned that the barkrats come up with a superhuman effort and find a way to prevail. So many great memories through the years....

Mic No. 15 Share Posted November 22, 2023 These games are always tough and OSU was always a worthy opponent. They broke the hearts of a lot of Duck fans and the Ducks broke the hearts of a lot of Beaver fans. And now it's time to break their little Beaver hearts some more.

woundedknees No. 16 Share Posted November 22, 2023 (edited) Back when I was still in high school, the beavis players were trying to pick up the Great Pumpkin (for a shoulder ride), and failed to keep his patookis off the pavement... does that count?

DanLduck No. 17 Share Posted November 23, 2023 My favorite was 2010 at Reser. It is the only Civil War I have attended in person. My wife and I returned from our Hawaii vacation that day, and just made it in time for the start of the game. Very first play for OSU resulted in a sack by Casey Mathews. A nice start. We won 37 - 10 and went to the first BCS championship game against Auburn. After the game, we stood at center field and took a selfie standing on the Beaver. All in all, a great memory.

OregonDucks No. 18 Share Posted November 23, 2023 I posted this in another thread. My personal favorite play against Oregon State was Keenan Howry’s punt return for a TD. It was a miserable day and both offenses were struggling. Oregon was down by 3 at the start of the fourth quarter, until... Immediately after Howry's TD, the rain started to come down even harder to the cheers of the Oregon fans at Autzen. It was like we were getting a little assist from someone up above. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
