This is the team playing varsity football. I saw scores for them last year and with other years as well. They played like Southern Oregon and all them. Just like I saw a score for Radford playing a school at the NAIA, and Radford is a club football. I do not think there is many club football teams in the Northwest for them to play. Usually NAIA and D-3 schools in the area. But, I do know if club football play, the game does not count. I saw like two or three scores a year for them. It could be a club, but I know the schools in the area that has football could play club teams to help cut the cost of travel.

I didn't see Oregon Tech listed on SOU's 2011 football schedule at:
I have noticed in recent years that many of the smaller colleges will list games against junior varsity teams, foreign all-star teams, club-level teams, etc. without noting the fact that the games are "unofficial" and do not count (to the best of my knowledge) in the NCAA or NAIA records. As an example Siena Heights had only a JV team in 2011 (they will be a varsity team in 2012), but if you look at Kentucky Wesleyan's schedule from last year, you will see their 28-26 loss to Siena Heights listed without any notation that this was a loss to a JV team. On the other hand the new team at Robert Morris (IL) played Siena Heights twice last year but neither of these games appears on RMU's 2011 schedule.
Perhaps something similar is happening with some unofficial team using the name "Oregon Tech".

I don't, either. I do remember about a year ago we discussed here a group of unoffical teams using the names of various community colleges in the region - perhaps one of those has popped up at Oregon Tech?

Could explain the Evergreen State scores that popped up in the early and mid 1990's. They had like 2 or 3 scores a year as well.
