Stay tuned for this next Ducks vs Them video. Oregon ‘Ducks vs. Them’ Video At USC Could Answer One Massive Question🤔 What was the halftime speech like from coach Dan Lanning as the Oregon Ducks looked to respond vs. the USC Trojans, with quarterback Dante Moore in the hospital after a scary targeting hit? That was the situation Lanning and the Ducks faced at halftime Saturday in Los Angeles. The Ducks led 13-10, but the score could hardly have been the only thing on their minds. Their beloved teammate and leader Moore had left the Coliseum by ambulance after Trojans linebacker Desman Stephens II lowered his shoulder into Moore while sliding during the second quarter. What was Lanning's halftime message? Lanning may have walked into the game with a halftime message in mind. However, the frightening circumstances changed everything. At halftime, Lanning had to find words for a team that still had a game to finish and a teammate it was desperate to hear about. Perhaps the "Ducks vs. Them" will show what Lanning said to his team in that pivotal halftime. Ducks fans saw the response on the field.

I didn't get a chance to watch much football on Saturday. But, I just saw the replay of your QB getting knocked out, and the clown who did it celebrated like he was in a UFC fight. The fact that he didn't get suspended indefinitely by USC , tells me what they're not teaching. Even South Carolina suspended their star Dylan Stewart for his nonsense, and he didn't send a guy to the hospital. I really hope Moore is going to be okay, concussions can be tricky.

Josh Pates response to OR/USC seemed pretty "right-on" with my feelings after the game. https://youtu.be/o7LzmjxoLJI?si=J7AqY7XXwdQJqX5c BTW. GOOD to hear Dante was released from the hospital and able to fly home With the Team. Go Ducks!

Oregon coach Dan Lanning defends 'petty' shots at Lincoln Riley, USCWhile USC spent much of the offseason talking and celebrating some recruiting wins over the Ducks, Lanning saved his talking for Saturdayafter the Ducks walked out of Los Angeles with a 41-27 win over the Trojans. At that point, he let the words fly. On two separate occasions, Lannings took the gloves off and pulled no punches. To start his press conference after the game, he aimed at the USC crowd: "I've watched 3 of their games here, and it hasn't been packed yet. But we were here tonight, and it was packed tonight. I guess when the Ducks show up, that's how you fill up the Coliseum." "3-0 against these guys. I guess if you're interested in winning football games, and you're from this area, you should go to Oregon. You want to go to a Chris Brown concert, you should go here.” Both of these quotes have circulated across social media, understandably, and Lanning was asked about them on Monday morning while joining Dave Portnoy on Barstool Sports. Lanning admitted the remarks were "petty" but defended his actions. https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/09/28/oregon-football-dan-lanning-petty-usc-remarks/91985702007/

Dante Moore Concussion Update: Oregon QB Clear of Further Injury After USC HitOregon coach Dan Lanning says Dante Moore's MRI and CT scans came back clean after the QB left Saturday's USC win on a cart. Clean Scans After a Scary Scene“Dante sustained a concussion in Saturday night’s game but fortunately his MRI and CT scans came back clean and he did not suffer any additional injuries,” Lanning said in the statement, as reported by the Associated Press. Moore had been on the ground for several minutes and wore a neck brace as he was carted off, but the update rules out any structural injury beyond the concussion itself. Oregon did not immediately provide a timetable for Moore’s return. Concussion protocols vary by case, and the senior quarterback’s next step will hinge on how he progresses through the required evaluation stages before he’s cleared to practice or play again.

Slow-Mo highlights from Oregon Football's win over USC on Saturday

Now that we know the player in question was flipping double birds, immediately afterwards... He should've been kicked off their team. I can't remember a more classless reaction to injuring someone, EVER.

Statement from Oregon Head Coach Dan Lanning on Quarterback Dante Moore: "Dante sustained a concussion in last night's game but fortunately his MRI and CT scans came back clean and he did not suffer any additional injuries. Every concussion is different and we are going to move forward with an abundance of caution to ensure we make the best decisions for Dante and his future. We are extremely appreciative of our entire medical staff and the medical staffs at USC and LA General County Hospital for their quick and thorough action in making sure Dante received the very best care possible.”

I have been experimenting with things at the suggestion of the web developer. The front page will remain the same as it is now, but inside threads it will go back to the way it was with solid white background with the black text on it, not bolded unless the OBD member posting adds the bolding. It may take a few days to get it all done, but it will happen soon.

Last week, I posted the following regarding Coach Lannjng and our team: Fire is an incredible refiner of gold. "Pressure and hardship do not define a man's worth; it reveals it. Fire, at the right temperature, burns away what is false, tests what is true, and leaves behind something much stronger and more valuable." By now, many of you know that I admittedly can 'wax on' a bit too much. But what I posted above is absolute truth. While I have no idea what the rest of the season is going to look like, regardless, what happened Saturday night, is almost the kind of stuff movie scripts are made of. Some would argue that our season was on the line (as I did), at best we had questionable play from Oregon in our first few games, first USC packed house in quite some time, hostile environment, our team leader and starting quarterback gets cheap shotted and taken out, while many on the opposing team have an extensive cheap shot celebration, as Dante lays motionless on the turf. The entire team, and our coach, is obviously highly shaken, emotional, and worried for Dante. Focus has totally shifted away from the game... but only momentarily, as in the course of a few minutes, Lanning immediately regroups himself and somehow pulls this team together in a way we haven't seen all year -- and frankly, I don't know if I've ever seen something quite like that happen. These kids (and coaches) were thrown directly into the heat of a refining fire. And, at least, on this last Saturday night, what poured out was gold. For a moment, I'm going to forget about the rest of the season -- because this is why the game is played... to help kids, and coaches, learn who they truly are, and what they are capable of. This the kind of stuff that these kids will remember and grow from for the rest of their lives.

As I've stated many times on USC boards over the past 3 years.....Riley is the definition of pure incompetence. Many agree with me......now. National media that defend him have no idea what they are talking about.

That's a great point. If true, and if they were interested in changing culture, then Riley would likely need to get rid many players that he recruited. Also, if Riley had manned up and made a public statement on Saturday night -- or even Sunday morning, that Stephens had been kicked off the team, that would have had some semi-decent positive PR impact for their program. But at this point, days later, and now that Riley's butt is the equivalent of a four to five alarm South Central LA fire, booting Stephens now would look like a sacrificial lamb move by Riley, designed almost exclusively to save his own butt. Nope... as of today, I don't think there is a PR move alive that gets this program out of this self-inflicted, horrendous, situation without some heavy-duty long-term damage. I sure luv these kind of 'feel good' Monday stories and situations.

USC vs Oregon.....reminds me of going to the Zoo vs the Opera.

A national championship may be at stake. I think the world of Dante Moore....he is a real gentleman......but.....as a QB.....Dylan is the better choice for the Ducks. IMHO How this plays out may determine Oregon's future this year. I'am glad I'am not making the decision....it's a tough call from a human point of view. It could be heart breaking either way.

Oregon football: Ducks react to Dante Moore's injury impact vs. USC On a sc podcast, one of the podcasters was on the sideline and talked about his distrain for the players and coaches re actions or lack thereof. Also, that he heard a player say 15 yards for taking out a QB was worth it.

Perhaps it's worth noting that USC does reside in the 'historic' area of South Central Los Angeles.

USC's Desman Stephens II has been suspended for one game after he and HC Lincoln Riley issued a written apology to Dante Moore. The move is not nearly enough. On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin breaks down the best things that Oregon did against the Trojans. OC Drew Mehringer tamped down the pressure he was facing from fans. The Ducks' slow start to the season feels like a long time ago after the big win on Saturday. How do their games against Oklahoma State and Boise State look right now?

A little more Dylan Raiola love this Monday morning. Raiola Fits This Oregon OffenseDylan Raiola is the type of quarterback needed to run Dan Lanning’s efficiency based offense.

Josh Pate said that USC could be this year’s Penn State: • Fans and media saying that this year’s team is a national championship contender • Coach is on the hot seat and there are questions of whether he can win the “big game” • Oregon comes in and beats them at home in front of a sell-out crowd on prime time national television • They have a tough schedule ahead starting with UW this weekend, at Penn State, Ohio State and Indiana

Yea, BSU and Okie State getting ranked changes perception. A ranked ucla next game would make it 4 of 5 opening games v. ranked opponents. but what gets focused on is how shameful it is to schedule Portland State.
