The rivalry between the Oregon schools and the Washington schools is so historic that it has its own name -- the Northwest Rivalry Series presented by Alaska Airlines.
The Oregon State men’s basketball team first played Oregon in 1903, Washington in 1904 and Washington State in 1907, making them three of the top four most-contested rivalries in all of college basketball.
