The 1905-06 Oregon Agricultural College men's basketball team was the fifth in the history of the school, known today as Oregon State University. The team played ten games in the year, winning every contest, a record which allowed supporters of the team to proclaim them champions of the state of Oregon.

The nickname of OAC teams in this era was the "Aggies," with today's team name, the "Beavers" first adopted during the decade of the 1920s. The team was independent, scheduling games on an ad hoc basis rather than as part of a formal sports conference.

Team history

As the season came to a close at the end of March 1906, the Corvallis Gazette recounted the Aggies' undefeated season with a front-page story for its readers.

"...Never before in the history of sports at OAC did a team close the season with such a splendid record behind them. By a system of clean, honorable playing, Captain Cate's bunch have been able to bring the state championship to the college on the hill.

"During the previous seasons there had been some doubt as to the real championship team, but this year there can be no misunderstanding. OAC has not only defeated every other team, but in the return games the orange were always victors. The Farmers won every game on the schedule, which gives them the title of champions."^[1]
