The team played home games at Bell Field in Corvallis, Oregon. Background The 1921 football season was deemed a financial success by J.J. Richardson, general manager of student affairs at OAC."Football Season Financial Success: Receipts for 1921 Total $25,378; Increase is $5,000," OAC Barometer, vol. 28, no. 24 (Dec. 13, 1921), p. 1. Total receipts for the year were $25,378.41 — an increase of more than $5,000 from 1920. Expenses, including travel costs and advertising, topped $12,000. The windfall was attributed to solid attendances at home games against major opponents, while early-season match ups with Chemawa Indian School and the Multnomah Athletic Club were played "without profits," it was noted.
