Oregon State Beavers

The Oregon State Beavers represent Corvallis with a blue-collar identity built on physical, well-coached football at Reser Stadium. As a founding member of the original Pacific Coast Conference, Oregon State has a long history in West Coast football even through leaner stretches. The program has had standout eras, including a run of BCS success in the mid-2000s under Mike Riley. Weathering conference realignment, the Beavers remain a proud Pacific Northwest program continuing on in a reshaped Pac-12.

Oregon State first fielded a football team in 1893, debuting with a 64-0 win over Albany College. The Beavers became a founding member of the Pacific Coast Conference in 1915 alongside Cal, Oregon, and Washington. Oregon State has won seven conference championships across four different leagues, including Pac-10/12 titles in 1941, 1956, 1957, 1964, and 2000. The program has weathered major conference realignment in recent years, remaining one of the enduring West Coast football institutions.
