American college football season
The 1973 Oregon State Beavers football team represented Oregon State University as a member of the Pacific-8 Conference (Pac-8) during the 1973 NCAA Division I football season. In their ninth season under head coach Dee Andros, the Beavers compiled an overall record of 2–9 with a mark of 2–5 in conference play, placing in a three-way tie for fifth in the Pac-8, and were outscored 293 to 166.[1] The team played four home games on campus at Parker Stadium in Corvallis, with one at Civic Stadium in Portland.
With their three-point road win over rival Oregon in the season finale, Andros’ record improved to 8–1 against the Ducks in the Civil War game.[2][3]
