The Pacific Coast Conference Oregon State Beavers football team represented Oregon State College in the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) during the 1954 college football season. In their sixth and final season under head coach Kip Taylor, the Beavers compiled an overall record of 1–8 with a mark of 1–6 conference play, tying for eighth place in the PCC, and were outscored 296 to 60. The team won the opener at home against Idaho, but then had eight consecutive losses. The Beavers played three home games on campus at Parker Stadium in Corvallis, with one at Multnomah Stadium in Portland.
The loss to Oregon in the Civil War was Taylor's first to the rival Ducks; he resigned two days later, as did his three assistants (Len Younce (line), Ward Cuff (backs), and Hal Moe (ends)).[1] In six years, Taylor had an overall record of 20–36–0 (.357), 15–30 in PCC.[2]
