Is this rivalry hurt by lack of catchy nickname?

I believe that's the lone reason why it does not get more national attention. It really is one of the best in the country. its one of the few where both teams consider the other 100% their biggest rival by far.
we just dont have a "Apple Cup" "Bedlam" "Civil War" "Iron Bowl" "iron Skillet" "Red River" type of name.
what should it be?

Oregon-Ore State calling their game "The Civil War"

makes about as much sense as calling the Clemson-SCAR game "The Bolshevik Revolution".
