Coming into the 1938 season, Oregon State College head football coach Lon Stiner was forced with the task of replacing virtually his entire starting backfield, having lost three of the previous year's regulars to graduation. Twenty newcomers were added to the varsity squad for the 1938 campaign, who were brought up to speed over the course of 30 spring practices.

The 1938 OSC squad finished the season with a ranking of #33 nationally.
