Civil War (college rivalry)

This article is about the general rivalry. For the football game, see Civil War (college football game).

The Civil War is a college rivalry between Oregon State University and the University of Oregon. The rivalry is one of the oldest in the nation, dating back to 1894 when the two universities' football teams first met. Although the college football game is the most popular rivalry, the two universities have Civil War games in every sport that both sponsor. There is also an academic rivalry between the schools on occasion, and competitions for community services such as blood drives take place often.

All-time records

Although determining the overall series winner is a fairly recent practice, all-time records for sports between the universities have been kept since play started.

Men's sports

Baseball

The all-time record between the schools stands at 155-147 in favor of Oregon State.^[1] The 2005 and 2006 seasons saw a rare unity between the schools in rooting for the Oregon State baseball team during the 2005 and 2006 College World Series. The Beavers went two-and-out (i.e., lost their first two games in the double-elimination event) in 2005, but won the national title in 2006 and 2007. With the recent success of the Oregon State Baseball program, the University of Oregon reinstated their baseball program in 2009, renewing the rivalry.

Basketball

The men's basketball rivalry is one of the most contested games between any two teams in the nation, with an NCAA record 331 games played as of the end of the 2009 season. The Beavers also hold the NCAA record for most wins against a single team (the Ducks) with the series' 184-150 record.^[2]
