1990. Season Recap



1990 Randolph Oilers
EFL Champions



Season Recap:
Led by a defense that amazingly only gave up more than 3 points in 3 regular season, a punishing running game, and an opportunistic and quick strike passing attack, The 1990 EFL Champion Oilers were one of the greatest teams in EFL history. 

The smothering Oilers defense gave up ZERO points in 5 of their 10 regular season games. For the season, the Oilers outscored their opponents by a remarkable 252-45 point margin.

The 1990 Oilers were not only the most talented squad in Oiler history, but perhaps also the most dedicated, unselfish, and hard working team in Randolph history. The 1990 Oilers set the standard for which all other Oiler teams will be measured.
