The 1907 Oregon Agricultural Aggies football team represented Oregon Agricultural College (now known as Oregon State University) as an independent during the 1907 college football season.
In their second season under head coach Fred Norcross, the Aggies compiled a perfect 6–0 record, did not allow any of their opponents to score, and outscored their opponents by a combined total of 137 to 0. The Aggies' victories included games against Oregon (4–0), the Pacific Boxers (49–0), and Willamette (42–0).[1]
Oregon Agricultural's final game of the season, at St. Vincent's in Los Angeles, was a Thanksgiving Day matchup of the "champions" of the Northwest and the "champions" of California, with the winner taking home the "championship" of the entire West Coast.[2] After beating St. Vincent's, the Aggies' proclaimed themselves "Champions of the Pacific Coast".[3]
This is still the only perfect season in Oregon State history, and moreover, they did not allow a single point this season.
