Seahawks tweet support for Oregon, angering Washington fans

Sometimes several college football teams live in the same NFL team's region. This leads to awkwardness.

Many people who live in Oregon, when asked, would pick the Seahawks as their NFL team of choice. Therefore, before tonight's national title game, the Seattle Seahawks decided to voice their support for the area team:

Win the day, @WinTheDay. #GoDucks #CFBPlayoff #UOvsOSU #PNW http://ift.tt/1A9jSjg

— Seattle Seahawks (@Seahawks) January 12, 2015

However, many people who are fans of the Seahawks are not fans of the Oregon Ducks! Many of them are actually fans of the Washington Huskies, who also play in Seattle! So this happened.

@Seahawks @WinTheDay BOW DOWN TO WASHINGTON! #GoHawks

The Seahawks are of course also supportive of their hometown college team -- they let Washington practice at their facility in August:

Thanks for having us today, @Seahawks! Go get another one of these! http://ift.tt/1DC3SN0
