1967 Oregon State Football Team

 While it didn't reach a bowl game, the 1967 Oregon State football team scored two huge upsets and earned the nickname "Giant Killers," making it one of the most memorable teams in school history.
In their third year under coach Dee Andros, the Beavers were 3-2 after a loss to Brigham Young when they traveled to Purdue and beat the second-ranked Boilermakers, 22-14. After a home win over Washington State, they tied No. 2 UCLA, 16-16, at the Rose Bowl, then beat No. 1 USC, 3-0, at home. A 14-0 win at Oregon moved OSU to 7-2-1 and they finished ranked No. 7.

At the time, only one team from the Athletic Association of Western Universities (renamed the Pac-8 the following year) was allowed to play in a bowl game.

Defensive linemen Jon Sandstrom and Jess Lewis were named All-Americans, while Bill Enyart, Gary Houser and Dave Marlette were also named all-Conference.
The team was inducted to the Oregon Sports Hall of Fame in 1992.
