until kickoff · vs Wabash · Sat Sep 19 · 12 pm ET
Oberlin is the program that John Heisman coached (7-0 in 1892), then disappeared into a lost century, a Yeomen rebuild that measures success not by records but by presence and persistence.
Fans here believe there is no chip. Oberlin football is past grievance and into pure survival mode. The program needs to remember how to win.
