The joke’s on them. The Civil War wasn’t actually a civil war.

This, like what in the actual frick. “The civil war had to do with slavery etc.” What the hell? A civil war is just like an internal war, which makes it a perfect name for a match up of two rival schools in the same state.

It’s not like one side was claiming to represent the South or southern ideals/beliefs in the 1860s. It is a “civil war” for the state of Oregon. This shite is too stupid

Why don’t they simply rename it “The Un-Civil War? And while they are at it, force Oregon State to change the name of its mascot in case anyone may be offended?

WTF? It's football, the term is tongue and cheek.

After last night and the outcome I suspect it will be considered a Civil War again....it was a good game. Beavers won with about 35 seconds to go after being down by 2 scores in the 4th.

Recently it should have been known as the War of Avian Aggression.

In 2020, the civil unrest war would be a very appropriate name, considering that train wreck of a state.

Would the headline next year

Ducks Pound on Beavers

be offensive?

If they just called it a protest, attendance would swell so much that they could fund stadia additions and break attendance records.

When leftists say, "let's have a conversation", this is what they mean.

This is also why they are censoring any dissent.

If calling Oregon vs Oregon state the civil war is one of your few true joys, the problem might not be someone else



And if repealing the name of a football game (in Oregon,ffs) brings you relief, comfort, and joy, then that’s definitely a “you” problem.

I think it’s going to be renamed the Platypus Bowl. A cross between a beaver and a duck

If you can begin to make a case for calling it the civil war
because it’s a game between two in state rivals that are both large public universities.

To make it even better it has a north (Corvallis) vs south (Eugene) component to it.

What do I win?
