Lacking an actual game today, I wanted to look back at my favorite UO-UW uniform moments of the last 30 years. Since the game looked pretty much the same for many years, I'll start with 1994 and the infamous "pick" game.
MY FAVORITES:
1994
Classic UO yellow/green/yellow that is probably the gold standard for UO home uniforms.
2000
The debut of the Bellotti-Bold font and new era of Nike uniforms with darker green/black.
2004
Nice use of yellow and green, paired with the classic UW road uniform.
2007
The "Stormtrooper" debuts.
2009
I'm a sucker for these shoulder wings, and even the black and white works with the colorful UW home set.
2014
The 20th anniversary of the "The Pick" and throwback uniforms, vs UW White-out.
2017
Ducks are nice and crisp but they lost.

AND ONE UGLY ONE:
2016
And one "bad one." UW looks great, but Oregon decided to debut its "Webfoots/State of Oregon flag" uniform that was mostly dark blue! And they lost horribly! While I love flags, the Oregon flag is boring, so not the best inspiration for a full uniform, I'm afraid.
