Until the past 20 years, Southern Oregon University football does not have a storied history. Aside from its lone national championship in 2014, the program has little tradition and few legends. Most of its history has been either lost or ignored in the annals of time. The program has played second fiddle in its school to more successful sports like wrestling and basketball. But to look back on the program that predated McNeal and the 1927 season, the story reads like a Greek tragedy: some triumphs, but many more setbacks.
