History

Early history

Football at Oregon State University started in 1893 shortly after athletics were initially authorized at the college. Athletics were banned prior to May 1892, but when the strict school president, Benjamin Arnold, died, President John Bloss reversed the ban. Bloss' son, William, started the first team, on which he served as both coach and quarterback. The team's first game was an easy 64–0 victory on November 11, 1893, over visiting Albany College.Bear and Forbear

Conference affiliations

The university has been in several athletic conferences. Prior to joining the Pac-12 Conference (then called the Pacific-8 Conference), OSU intermittently played as an independent school. * Oregon Intercollegiate Football Association (1893-1897) * Independent (1898–1901, 1903-1907, 1909-1911) * Northwest Intercollegiate Athletic Association (1902, 1908, 1912-1914) *
