The Oregon–Washington football rivalry or Washington–Oregon football rivalry, also known informally as the Cascade Clash or the Fight for the Forest, is an American college football rivalry between the Washington Huskies and Oregon Ducks of the Big Ten Conference. Previously they both played in the legacy Pac-12 Conference and were opponents in its final Pac-12 Championship Game. Their respective campuses in Seattle and Eugene are 285 miles (460 km) apart, via Interstate 5. Washington leads the series 63–50–5 as of 2024.

It is one of the 25 most played rivalries in NCAA Division I FBS history, and has been played regularly since 1900. Since 1922, the two teams have met on the field in every year except 1943, 1944, 2001, and 2020. In two years, 1945 and 2023, this rivalry game occurred twice in the same year, with Washington winning both games in those seasons.

The programs of this rivalry have recently played in one College Football Playoff National Championship game each, with Oregon contesting the 2015 NCAA Championship Game and Washington contesting the 2024 NCAA Championship Game. In those games they lost to future Big Ten stablemates Ohio State and Michigan, respectively, the latter of which Washington coincidentally defeated for its 1991 National Championship.
